UPDATED: Piecing Together The 2010-11 Boston College Eagles Hockey Schedule

For whatever reason, the defending National Champions Eagles hockey team have yet to release their 2010-11 men's ice hockey schedule. This doesn't stop us, however, from piecing together much of the Eagles' schedule from the schedule releases for virtually every other Hockey East programs including Maine, New Hampshire, Boston University, Providence, Merrimack, UMass-Lowell, Vermont and Northeastern.

This season, BC is fortunate to host both Maine and New Hampshire at home for two of their three regular season games, along with UMass-Lowell and Massachusetts. BC will go on the road for two of three against Vermont, Boston University, Northeastern, Merrimack and Providence.

Next year is also one of those awkward years where BC and BU can't meet in the Beanpot Tournament final, as the Green Line rivals square off in the first round. BC will play BU in the second game of the first round of the Beanpot on February 7, 2011.

The regular season again concludes with a home-and-home with New Hampshire on March 4-5, which will likely again determine the Hockey East regular season title.

The only dates that are still to be confirmed are the three regular season games against UMass. 

In non-conference play, BC will travel to Denver to play two games against the Pioneers on October 15-16. The Eagles will again face Notre Dame in South Bend on October 23. Finally, BC will play Colgate and either Dartmouth or Mercyhurst in the Dartmouth Tournament over the holidays.
