<p>Capping off a very satisfying weekend against the Huskies</p> <p id="nbsSVw">After Saturday’s 30-0 thumping in football, the BC men’s hockey team was looking to continue Eagle over Husky dominance Tuesday evening with a mid-week road matchup at the XL Center in Hartford.</p>
<p id="jC91Ge">Despite falling behind 1-0, the Eagles stormed back to make it a no-doubter, with a JD Dudek hat trick leading the way for <a href="http://hockeyeastonline.com/men/boxes17.php?mbc_con1.n22">a 5-2 Boston College win</a> against UConn.</p>
<p id="yWWy0M">Quick aside: There might have been BC dominance on the ice (and football field), but UConn corners the market on most adorable live mascots. LOOK AT THIS GUY!</p>
<div id="LbFVc1"><div data-anthem-component="gallery:198604"></div></div>
<p id="krbqYl">Good for you, UConn. Jonathan is a <em>beauty.</em></p>
<p id="09UliT"><strong>UConn Goal #1: 19:36 of the 1st period</strong><br><strong>Max Kalter (Kasperi Ojantakanen, Joseph Masonius)</strong></p>
<p id="p9QKi9"><em><strong>UC 1, BC 0</strong></em></p>
<div id="Mdq4XG"><div><div style="left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 55.7818%;"><iframe src="https://gfycat.com/ifr/InsidiousAnotherAmericancrocodile" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" style="top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;"></iframe></div></div></div>
<p id="g6C0gL">BC shot out of a cannon in the first period, racking up the game’s first 5 shots and forcing UConn goalie Adam Huska to stand on his head. But the great first period ended in disappointment.</p>
<p id="jG5Zru">As the first twenty minutes would down, one lost battle put the Eagles behind. <a href="http://franklycurious.com/wp/2014/09/12/charlie-pierces-clever-names-for-things/">Obvious anagram</a> Kasperi Ojantakanen (seriously?) does a blue collar job of keeping possession along the boards before dishing over to Max Kalter. </p>
<p id="cx2W82">Kalter beats Ron Greco across the blue line after a change, and fires it in for the goal.</p>
<p id="kN3cjn"><strong>Boston College Goal #1: 4:34 of the 2nd period</strong><br><strong>Ryan Fitzgerald (Christopher Brown, Austin Cangelosi)</strong></p>
<p id="6l1sa2"><em><strong>BC 1, UC 1</strong></em></p>
<div id="NIgoCa"><div><div style="left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 55.7818%;"><iframe src="https://gfycat.com/ifr/SparseDesertedHornet" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" style="top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;"></iframe></div></div></div>
<p id="Nh8A7a">There are a lot of really, really nice goals for BC so strap yourself in.</p>
<p id="KBdiMl">One thing BC seemed to be particularly good at in this game was crossing the blue line with speed while staying onside. Staying onside wasn’t much of a problem on this goal, but the Eagles consistently flew (see what I did there?) into the offensive zone, putting a lot of pressure on the UConn defenders.</p>
<p id="jYFAwe">Great example here. Christopher Brown is the puck carrier across the blue line and by coming in with such a head of steam he inadvertently sets a bit of a pick while making his drop pass. Cangelosi receives the pass and slams on the brakes which opens up all kinds of space for him.</p>
<p id="IGvwam">He wrists a shot-pass in on net that Fitzgerald The Elder gets his stick on, and that’s a great goal for the Eagles to get things going.</p>
<p id="lgZgcu"><strong>Boston College Goal #2: 11:51 of the 2nd period</strong><br><strong>JD Dudek (Ryan Fitzgerald, Scott Savage)</strong></p>
<p id="v7I4yy"><em><strong>BC 2, UC 1</strong></em></p>
<div id="Hqwznl"><div><div style="left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 55.7818%;"><iframe src="https://gfycat.com/ifr/ArtisticImaginativeGoldenmantledgroundsquirrel" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" style="top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;"></iframe></div></div></div>
<p id="lxhwF5">Dudek catches UConn napping on the long change with this breakaway goal.</p>
<p id="4ClgHC">This is good timing but Dudek does a good job selling it, too. With UConn coasting in for the change, Dudek comes off the bench and takes a stride or two toward BC’s defensive zone where Ryan Fitzgerald is looking to set up a play. </p>
<p id="Vw1eWx">But BC’s bench is right on the edge of the offensive zone, and so as soon as the last UConn defender in his path commits to coming onto the bench, Dudek books it for the blue line. Fitzgerald goes tape to tape, and from there Dudek’s on his own.</p>
<p id="3GNwcb">He puts in a nice finish, and BC has the lead.</p>
<p id="KxdZOS"><strong>Boston College Goal #3 (PPG, GWG): 10:28 of the 3rd period</strong><br><strong>JD Dudek (Connor Moore, Julius Mattila)</strong></p>
<p id="lAeAJw"><em><strong>BC 3, UC 1</strong></em></p>
<div id="ZG0ap6"><div><div style="left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 55.7818%;"><iframe src="https://gfycat.com/ifr/ImmaterialUnselfishDonkey" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" style="top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;"></iframe></div></div></div>
<p id="KT5Axx">You wouldn’t know it by looking at the box score and seeing 5 goals allowed, but UConn’s Adam Huska played pretty amazing for the Huskies. It was only goals like this that were able to sneak through.</p>
<p id="yQ9tEN">This is just vicious for a goalie. Connor Moore fires a blast from up top, and Dudek gets <em>solid</em> contact right at the top of the crease for the deflection. The puck slams down into the ice to bounce through... and there is just no stopping that.</p>
<p id="rGgU05">It was a power play goal, and Dudek’s second of the night. We haven’t seen the last of him.</p>
<p id="TgNBxa"><strong>Boston College Goal #4: 11:20 of the 3rd period</strong><br><strong>Julius Mattila (Chris Calnan, Matty Gaudreau)</strong></p>
<p id="70ELIi"><em><strong>BC 4, UC 1</strong></em></p>
<div id="zWzPUh"><div><div style="left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 55.7818%;"><iframe src="https://gfycat.com/ifr/CriminalScarceKingbird" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" style="top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;"></iframe></div></div></div>
<p id="pvUj6m">Things looked a little dicey for a little while there in the third period for BC. Halfway through, the Eagles were only up one, and while they were still playing well, UConn was getting their chances. Fortunately, the two quick goals for BC put the game out of reach.</p>
<p id="IX2jgv">Just a minute after Dudek’s second, Julius Mattila grabbed his first. The play sets up pretty similarly to BC’s first — Calnan receives Matty Gaudreau’s pass as he approaches the blue line, and he’s coming in with a full head of steam. The puck bounces off his stick, but because he’s coming in so hard, the UConn defenseman’s “press coverage” of sorts leads to him getting pushed back a bit into his own end.</p>
<p id="1aHmhJ">Calnan doesn’t shy away from the contact, and it allows Mattila, trailing the play, to take possession of the puck. One quick move to his forehand at the hashmarks puts him in a great scoring area, and all he needs to do is find an opening an send the puck through to give BC the commanding lead.</p>
<p id="hqROqz"><strong>UConn Goal #2: 15:38 of the 3rd period</strong><br><strong>Miles Gendron (Corey Ronan, Max Kalter)</strong></p>
<p id="ZB01jN"><em><strong>BC 4, UC 2</strong></em></p>
<div id="1IuHnM"><div><div style="left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 55.7818%;"><iframe src="https://gfycat.com/ifr/TidyFrequentConey" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" style="top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;"></iframe></div></div></div>
<p id="t11at2">This is a bad combination of BC coasting and UConn turning on the afterburners.</p>
<p id="oBB03o">Yikes. Just watch the BC legs not moving on this play until it’s too late. UConn <em>explodes</em> through the neutral zone and into the BC end, and half a second later they’re on a 2 on 0. Connor Moore and Luke McInnis — two freshmen — are the defensemen on this play, and they both get totally taken for a ride.</p>
<p id="FUYgmP">In the scheme of things, this goal didn’t matter, but that was one hell of a combination of lethary and explosiveness that leads to a pretty sick UConn goal out of absolutely nowhere.</p>
<p id="Rrilv8"><strong>Boston College Goal #5 (HT): 17:52 of the 3rd period</strong><br><strong>JD Dudek (Ryan Fitzgerald, Jesper Mattila)</strong></p>
<p id="BRInxx"><em><strong>BC 5, UC 2 — FINAL</strong></em></p>
<div id="IQ7ZTX"><div><div style="left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 55.7818%;"><iframe src="https://gfycat.com/ifr/InbornOccasionalGopher" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" style="top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;"></iframe></div></div></div>
<p id="8vqOJO">Despite getting a goal to cut the lead back to two, UConn never really used it to spark anything resembling a comeback. Two minutes later, it was their turn to be caught on their heels.</p>
<p id="i1MtA3">JD Dudek has Ryan Fitzgerald to thank for his hat track. Fitzgerald The Elder had the primary assist on two of Dudek’s goals, and they were both right on the money. </p>
<p id="FvMbli">On this goal, BC just moves the puck along the boards, and too many Huskies come in to collapse on the play. Dudek recognizes it and starts to break for the blue line, and Fitzgerald bloops one right out in front of him. There’s no one around to defend, and poor Huska, who really did deserve better than what he ended up with in the box score, just got completely hung out to dry.</p>
<p id="0F73oi">That was that, and aside from a few moments where UConn got some things going, this was a pretty complete effort from the Eagles. UConn isn’t completely awful (they did just smoke BU 4-0 this weekend, after all) and with the game in front of another excellent crowd at the XL Center, this was a game BC wouldn’t have had much trouble dropping. But it’s another two league points, and it puts the Eagles at 6-0-1 in conference.</p>
<div id="NWd5mw"><div><div style="left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 0px; position: relative; padding-bottom: 56.2493%;"><iframe src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/s2rb50WRIVs?wmode=transparent&rel=0&autohide=1&showinfo=0&enablejsapi=1" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen="" style="top: 0px; left: 0px; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: absolute;"></iframe></div></div></div>
<p id="CqaS2K">Things will get tougher for the Eagles this weekend. Minnesota rolls into town on Sunday afternoon in one of the most highly anticipated games of the season, and while the Gophers aren’t as scary as they have been in the past, they’re still in position to claim an NCAA tournament spot. BC will need to play at least as well as they did against the Huskies to come away with the win.</p>

<p>Eagles remain undefeated in Hockey East play</p> <p id="fxUz4T">Boston College hockey bounced back from Friday’s loss to Harvard in impressive fashion, overcoming a 1-0 first period deficit to bounce UConn 5-2 on Tuesday night in Hartford.</p>
<p id="S6lzFo">JD Dudek led the way for the Eagles, notching a hat trick to power BC to the victory. Ryan Fitzgerald and Julius Mattila also had goals in the win.</p>
<p id="KBDgYZ">It was looking like an #icebus kind of day when the Eagles yielded a first period goal by Max Kalter with just 24 seconds left in the frame. Kalter’s strike came against the run of play, which saw the Eagles outshoot UConn 12-7 in the first period.</p>
<p id="Bqde4O">All season long, though, BC has been a strong second period team, and that continued tonight. Ryan Fitzgerald erased the deficit by tipping home a Chris Brown shot at 4:34 of the second period to tie the score at 1.</p>
<p id="xU4BVW">Though it did not lead to a goal, the line of Julius Mattila, Matt Gaudreau and JD Dudek seized the momentum for BC just under seven minutes in to the second period, putting together a dominant shift and keeping UConn penned in their own end for over a minute; the Huskies were able to relieve the pressure only by committing a penalty at 7:01. BC failed to score on the power play, but from that point forward the Eagles controlled the tempo.</p>
<p id="wdvnYT">JD Dudek started his goal parade at 11:51, streaking in on a breakaway and burying a shot that would give the Eagles a 2-1 lead after 40 minutes.</p>
<p id="szZdwA">After slogging through the early minutes of the third period and yielding a power play opportunity to UConn, BC recovered and put the Huskies away, with Dudek tipping home a Connor Moore blast at 10:28 to extend the lead to 3-1. Julius Mattila salted it away shortly thereafter, scoring at 11:20 to make it 4-1.</p>
<p id="NP0cNt">UConn tried to claw back in to it late, closing to within 4-2, but Dudek killed off all hope of a Husky comeback by completing his hat trick at 7:52.</p>
<p id="LwjEps">The Eagles are now 11-3-1 going in to Thanksgiving, with a big game against Minnesota coming up on Sunday. BC also remains undefeated in league play, at the top of the Hockey East standings with a 6-0-1 record.</p>

<p>BC looks to bounce back with a win</p> <p id="uJll8M">The Boston College Eagles look to bounce back from Friday’s loss with a game tonight against the always-pesky UConn Huskies.

<p id="QXFZfL">For BC, this game is about getting back on the horse and going in to the Thanksgiving holiday with an unbeaten record in league play. The puck drops at 7 PM; leave your thoughts below. </p>

<p id="jYq7NC"><em><strong>BC STORYLINES</strong></em></p>
<ul>
<li id="JZ0UrY">UConn has been a tough foe for BC since joining Hockey East in 2014-15. UConn memorably topped BC 1-0 in the two teams’ first meeting two years ago; BC edged UConn narrowly in the return game at Conte Forum the following January. Last year, BC made quick work of UConn in Hartford, but the Huskies tied the Eagles at Conte Forum.</li>
<li id="Rz5zRY">Friday was yet another penalty killing disaster for BC: they went shorthanded 7 times and gave up 3 goals. At 80.4%, BC’s penalty kill is now tied with AIC for 42nd in the nation. It’s the worst in Hockey East. </li>
<li id="CrvSDU">White heating up?: Colin White averaged 1.16 points per game last season, but has been trending behind that mark so far this year at 0.85. He recently had a stretch of scoring no points in 4 of 5 games. However, in his last three games, White has two goals and two assists. We'll see if the long-awaited White explosion takes place soon.</li>
<li id="HHQNj2">Joe Woll is coming off two of his more difficult outings of the season, allowing 7 goals in his last two games (UNH, Havard). Will he get the call tonight? </li>
</ul>
<p id="uPwJTv"><em><strong>GETTING TO KNOW THE OPPONENT</strong></em></p>
<p id="Jj2WNt">UConn continues to be an enigma in its third year in Hockey East play. UConn has 5 ties already this season, including ties to Colgate, RIT and AIC. But they also have wins over Notre Dame and BU. Saturday's win at Agganis Arena was vintage #icebus as the Huskies pounced for 4 goals and Adam Huska held strong between the pipes despite the fact that UConn was heavily outshot.</p>
<p id="cHIzBQ">Freshman Adam Huska's save percentage is .930 and coming off a great performance on Saturday he is likely to get the nod tonight.</p>
<p id="bSGP4Y"><em><strong>THE NUMBERS GAME</strong></em></p>
<p id="VfVxia">Despite their heavy defeat on Friday, BC remains tied for 4th in goal margin per game, averaging a +1.57 spread per game. UConn is #28 in that stat at +0.38.</p>
<p id="LWZ2z4">UConn gives up some of the highest shot totals in the nation, allowing 33.23 shots per game and on average getting outshot by about 5. Given BC’s high possession numbers, expect a high shot total from the Eagles tonight.</p>
<p id="GrNXkV"><em><strong>THE EXPECTATIONS GAME</strong></em></p>
<p id="v46zEL">You’ve got to be expecting a win tonight. Even if #icebus does regularly do #icebus things.</p>
<p id="p0e9T2"><em><strong>RANDOM FACT ABOUT UCONN</strong></em></p>
<p id="CTJiyB">On Saturday, November 19, the University of Connecticut Football Team managed to get negative rushing yards against Boston College. </p>
<p id="oL9WYk"><em><strong>CAT PREDICTIONS</strong></em></p>
<p id="dBbM5e">Cat predictions are brought to you by the adoptable cats of the <a href="http://www.giffordcatshelter.org/"><strong>Gifford Cat Shelter</strong></a>, the nation’s oldest cageless, no-kill shelter - located near BC on Undine Road in Brighton.</p>
<p id="eoN8FO">Mimi is betraying her species and going with the Huskies. She wasn't too confident about this one and thinks it'll be a close game. 2-1 UConn.</p>

<p>BC hopes to bounce back from a tough loss at Harvard as they head to Connecticut...</p> <p>The Eagles suffered a tough loss to Harvard over the weekend after a couple of sloppy wins. The Harvard game was hopefully the wake up call that this team needs to stay focused and get back to winning. Meanwhile, UConn is coming off a big win in which they shocked a highly-touted BU team. Both BC/UConn games will be played on Tuesdays this year - UConn comes to Conte on January 24.</p>
