🚨 Today for the first time - Boston University and Boston College will face off as the No. 1 and No. 2 teams in the nation. 🚨 In 1978, @TerrierHockey took a 5-3 win over the Eagles to win the National Championship. Who will win tonight? 👀 #NCAAHockey

Up early on a Friday to catch old pal @nigelringland and @sheds19 calling a great game from Belfast and the Friendship Series on @NESN! Thanks to everyone who made these games possible and such a huge showcase for the sport and @PCWHockey and @hockey_east!
See you all in March 🫡
Haven’t been feeling very Christmas-y this year, so I made a video to more accurately reflect where I’m at presently.
Excited to debut the first episode of "This Week in Hockey East", a preview show with @LT__Murray and @ericgallanty where we dive into all things @hockey_east and the road ahead. Can't wait to expand and grow the show every week! youtube.com/watch?v=o8ebkG…

Edwards, Sterling, Gorman- It’s a unique bond between a team PxPer & fan. They are part of how we fall for our childhood teams, something that for so many leads to greater connections between family and friends. They become an extension of that. We’re all so indebted to them
Great news for @BC_MHockey @wbz
President of hockey operations & general manager Brian MacLellan today issued the following statement regarding Capitals prospect Ryan Leonard’s decision to return to Boston College for his sophomore season. #ALLCAPS
Six players amassed 60-plus points in NCAA Division I men's hockey this season, the most since 2002-03.
Speaks to how far @collegehockey has come in the last 15 years (and even the last five) to where this is both a normal occurrence for top players and one that NHL organizations support. 2009 Nate would be shocked.
Ryan Leonard plans to return for his sophomore year at Boston College. Statement from Brian MacLellan:
Jack Edwards announces his retirement after 19 years as the voice of the Bruins and 45 years as a sportscaster. This is his final playoff run.
When I took over the Globe's Bruins beat, Jack Edwards could not have been nicer or more encouraging. Knowing that he was digging my stuff meant a ton to me as I was getting my feet wet. Enjoyed every chat we've ever had. Happy retirement, @RealJackEdwards.
