Jim ConnellyIt was an 8-0 decision for Boston College over Massachusetts that gave BC head coach Jerry York his 1,000th career win. That doesn’t make the value of the victory any less. 1) 1-0 or 8-0, York’s victory on Friday was special I honestly don’t care about the final score. But Boston College head coach Jerry … Read more

The Huskies won a pair of games at then-No. 13 St. Lawrence last weekend.
A sweep of St. Lawrence puts Northeastern back into the conversation of the relevant teams in Hockey East and leads the three things I learned this weekend. 1. Northeastern may be poised for a big second half The Huskies swept St. Lawrence on the road this weekend, which one might have believed would be improbable given … Read more

After tremendous starts, Providence and Boston College have both faltered recently.
The league has the teams ranked 11th, 13th, 14th and 15th in the PairWise.
Thanks to Union’s overtime win against Vermont, I went perfect and gained a game on Dave in the slow week before Christmas. A five-game lead feels like a luxury entering the second half but one bad week and that lead could be gone. Jim last week: 3-0-0 Jim to-date: 93-33-22 Dave last week: 2-1-0 Dave … Read more

Providence is the last remaining unbeaten team in Division I men’s hockey, and New Hampshire’s Andrew Poturalski has averaged two points per game.
A few teams have emerged as the elite, but for many, the struggle to play at a high level every night has been real.
There remains just one unbeaten team in the country thanks to Boston University. That leads the three things I learned this week. 1. A motivated BU team knocks off Quinnipiac Maybe a 3-2 loss on Friday night to Yale was the motivation that Boston University needed as a night later, after falling behind, 1-0, to … Read more
