BC captain Brock Bradford was just sprung for a left-wing breakaway, hustling down Main Street for the one-on-one with Thiessen. The junior backstop made the joint pad-blade stop, and mere moments later the Men In Black made the most of their ‘keeper’s skill. Greg Costa beat Muse short-side once more, from what couldn’t have been … Read more

As quickly as it began, it seemed, the Eagles’ first power play went by the boards. And yet it was not for nothing: in the ensuing few moments, BC held the zone and took advantage of the adjusting Huskies. NU soph Mike Hewkin committed an infraction behind his own net, BC junior Matt Price hopped … Read more

Gooooooaaaaalll, Northeastern. The raucous Dog House (not to be confused with the aptly named Dog Pound … see previous posts for explanation) explodes as senior Ryan Ginand roofed it short-side over workhorse John Muse’s glove. 1-0 Huskies, 15:08 on the clock in the first.

2:20 in, and Andrew Orpik is dismissed for interference. Check that; with 1:04 still on Orpik’s minor, Tim Filangieri is off for hooking! 5×3 …

Third-ranked (yep, No. 3!) Northeastern against No. 12 Boston College. The Eagles are the home team in this one, so they’ll get the last change and — more importantly — wear the flattering whites. They saved the best for last tonight, from the national anthem singer (stylistically solid, aesthetically stunning, and most importantly, considerately brief) … Read more

With time expiring … or expired … Alex Biega ripped a shot right through Millan. The entire arena went nuts, understandably: BU fans thought they’d won (one ref signaled no goal, with review pending). Harvard (a.k.a. Northeastern and the slowly emerging Boston College) fans cheered out of incredulous hope and surprise … … but when … Read more

Can this game get any more dramatic? The Terrier power play worked the umbrella for a couple bids, then fed it back outside for Jason Lawrence. The senior winger ripped the wide-open shot from the top of the left-wing circle over Hoyle’s glove. The normally pass-happy Lawrence changed it up a bit, and the white-clad … Read more

P.O. Michaud (mee-SHOW) scored for the third straight game, and this one was a doozie. Now tied again at three, there are 130 seconds of regulation play left to decide who advances to the finals … and who plays the dreaded “Early Game” next week. Of all people, Harvard captain Jimmy Fraser sits for a … Read more

The players on the ice may have just been victimized by the actions of their faithful. Mere minutes after the Dogs broke the draw — and the fans jeered their early-arriving Northeastern counterparts in a confoundingly crass and offensive manner — Harvard put the Scarlet & White butts back in their seats with a Pier-Olivier … Read more

… BU fans demonstrate that they, too, have no class. Moments after their Terriers broke the deadlock, the Dog Pound felt they had to rub it into their antagonizing NU neighbors as only the brightest students in Beantown could: “F*** you Huskies” is not an appropriate celebratory chant. It’s downright embarrassing, and on an internationally … Read more
