For the first time in the 100+ year BU-BC rivalry, the
Commonwealth Avenue rivals played to a scoreless tie. Saturday night’s contest
at Conte Forum was the 279th in the series.
The Eagles enjoyed a decided shot advantage, especially in
the second period, when they poured 14 shots on BU’s Jake Oettinger. The junior
netminder made 42 saves while BC’s Joe Woll stopped 26 Terrier shots.
BU’s best two scoring chances were Bobo Carpenter’s shot off
the post in the second period and Joel Farabee’s breakaway in the final seconds
of overtime, which Woll turned aside.
For Oettinger, it was the 10th career shutout. He’s
third on BU’s all-time list behind John Curry and Jack Ferreria.
“I know [Oettinger] wasn’t totally with his performance from
the night before, and we weren’t blaming him either,” BU head coach Albie
O’Connell said. “He gave us an opportunity [tonight] to get a point in [Hockey
East], whereas if he didn’t have his ‘a-game,’ we probably wouldn’t have gotten
that point.”

Behind a pair of goals from Abby Cook and 37 saves by
goalie Corinne Schroeder, BU defeated #4 BC, 4-2, to complete its first-ever
weekend sweep of the Eagles at Walter Brown Arena.
After BC took an early second-period 1-0 lead, Cook
scored on a blueline blast on a power play at 4:50 and did so again at 11:46.
Deziray DeSousa added a third power-play goal late in the period for a 3-1 lead.
BC cut the margin to one early in the third, but Schroeder would stop the other
18 Eagles shots. Jesse Compher’s empty-netter closed out the scoring.
