Eagles Blanked


I was not able to watch the game last night, but a 2-0 shutout at home is pretty disheartening. With the loss, New Hampshire extends its lead to 8 points in Hockey East and all but locks up the regular season championship with 5 HE games to play. Not only does UNH extend their lead, but now only 2 points separate BC from Boston University, Vermont, Northeastern, and Providence (Northeastern and Providence tied for 5th place).


If the Eagles aren't careful, with 5 games left - @ UNH, home-and-home with Providence and a home-and-home with Northeastern, they are in danger of losing home ice for the Hockey East tournament. Hopefully the Eagles earn the weekend split tonight at the Whittemore Center.


We'll have more analysis and more headlines on Monday. Go Eagles!
