Game Day: BU visits Merrimack--UPDATED



Terriers return to conference action tonight, traveling to Lawlor Arena for a matchup with Merrimack College. Last season BU won two of the three regular-season meetings between the teams. Game time is 7:30 p.m. for contest, which will air locally on WBIN-TV.

The Warriors are led by junior forward Mike Collins, Hockey East’s top scorer with 12 points and a one-time teammate of BU’s Garrett Noonan with both Catholic Memorial High School and the BCHL Vernon Vipers’ 2010 RBC Cup Champions.

Boston Hockey Blog reports that Matt O’Connor will start in goal for BU, that Mike Moran will return to the lineup and that Alexx Privitera will sit out the game due to a team infraction.
