Recognition & Nominations; Pandolfo's Media Call

After capturing Hockey East Player of the Month honors for January, Lane Hutson was named National Rookie of the Month by the Hockey Commissioners Association. He's the fifth Terrier to win the award, which was introduced in 2007: Kieran Miller (2009), Jack Eichel (2015), Clayton Keller (2017) and Joel Farabee (2019).

Coach Jay Pandolfo Media Call

On having no game this weekend: “It gives us an opportunity to reset, have some really good practices, work on things we can improve on and go from there.”

On Monday’s consolation game: It’s certainly not a throwaway game. It’s probably better that we’re playing BC. All the games are big for us. Both teams will get up for this so I think there will be energy on both sides. It’s an important game, especially for us, to bounce back from the loss.”

On injuries to Jamie Armstrong and Ethan Phillips: “Armstrong still has not skated. Phillips practiced yesterday and today looks pretty good. We’ll skate Saturday and Sunday and we’ll see how he responds in those two practices. He’s probably 50-50 for Monday.”

 

►During Monday’s Beanpot coverage on NESN, an interview with Matt Brown recalls the passing of his mother just prior to last year’s Beanpot tournament and the support he received from Terrier teammates.

 

Looking ahead

2024 recruit Cole Hutson scored the game-winning goal on a short-hander and added an assist as the NTDP U17s defeated Finland, 4-2 in the U17 Five Nations tournament in Switzerland. Fellow recruit Kamil Bednarik assisted on Team USA’s second goal. The victory was the second in two days for the U.S. squad. Hutson assisted on a pair of goals Wednesday in an 8-3 win over Sweden (video, Hutson is #48, Bednarik #38). With 10 points in his last ten games, Hutson has 37 points in 38 games.

 

2023 recruit Michael Chambre stopped all 15 shots he faced in the NTDP U18s’ 4-2 win against Finland in the opening game of the Four Nations tournament in Finland. Chambre played the final 31 minutes and gets credit for the win.

 

Looking back

Jake Oettinger stopped 38 shots to lead Dallas to a 4-1 win against Minnesota. The Wild had a goal disallowed when Oettinger’s Terrier teammate Jordan Greenway forced his way into the crease, knocking the goalie down. Oettinger earned his 23rd win and lowered his GAA to 2.22.


Jack Eichel scored his 16th goal and added his 20th assist as the Golden Knights defeated the Wild, 4-1.
