This Day in BU Hockey—March 28; Zegras signs with Anaheim



2015: Evan Rodrigues’ goal late in the third period—his second of the game—broke a 2-2 tie, gave BU the NCAA Northeast Regional title with a 3-2 win against Minnesota Duluth. The win punched the Terriers’ ticket to the Frozen Four in Boston.  With BU on a power play, Rodrigues toe-dragged around defender in the right circle and beat UMD goaltender Kasimir Kaskisuo glove side, assisted by Matt Grzelcyk and Danny O’Regan. Matt Lane had the other BU goal. Matt O’Connor stopped 27 shots.
