Game Day BU vs. Vermont at The Gut



Terriers are in Vermont for a single game against the Catamounts at Gutterson Fieldhouse tonight. Game time is set for 7 p.m. with a live stream available on CBS All-Access. BU took three of four points from UVM in a November two-game series at Agganis Arena.

BU, which has won only twice on the road this season, will be looking for two critical points in conference standings. Currently in fifth place, the Terriers trail three teams tied for second by a single point.

Vermont has struggled in the new year with two ties and five losses in its past seven games; but they did win their own Catamount Classic in late December. The Catamounts’ strength is in goal where senior Stefanos Lekkas has a .910 save percentage and a 2.98 GAA. Freshmen Jacques Bouquot and Andrew Lucas have 12 and 11 points respectively, while junior Ace Cowens has six goals.

McMurray native has two wins and a tie in three starts as a Terrier, along with a 1.58 GAA and a .937 save percentage.

It was a busy week for the former BU and U.S. Olympic captain that included book-signing events in New Jersey, New York and New Hampshire--all sellouts. He also was interviewed on New York’s WFAN, Fox & Friends and at the NHL Network studios. The NHL Network interviews will air multiple times in February in conjunction with airing of the movie, Miracle, and events commemorating the 40th anniversary of Team USA’s gold-medal win in the 1980 Olympics.
