Looking back

Former BU All-American defenseman and broadcast hockey analyst Colby Cohen has a new gig as a Content Analyst for the Chicago Blackhawks. He will appear on all team content channels, including social media platforms, podcasts and be a regular contributor to Blackhawks.com. 

In addition, he will also appear regularly in studio during NBC Sports Chicago's coverage of Blackhawks games. Cohen, whose overtime game-winning goal (video) earned him Most Outstanding Player of the 2009 NCAA Championships, has indicated he’ll continue to be part of the ESPN team on the NCAA Frozen Four. 

He is one of six blueliners from BU's 2009 title team to play in the NHL, along with Kevin Shattenkirk, Matt Gilroy, Eric Gryba, Brian Strait and David Warsofsky.
