Previewing the Northeastern Huskies


Well I would first of all like to tell you that I am writing this from the press box at Fenway. This place is pretty cool. The Eagles looks to get back into first place tonight with a big time matchup vs the Northeastern Huskies here at Fenway Park. In the two meetings thus far this year, BC has beaten NU both times but both were either won in an extra session or a last second goal. NU is coming off a disappointing loss vs BU last night in a game in which they were up by a score of 2-0. One thing that NU is missing this time around that they had the first two games vs BC are forwards Cody Ferriero and Brandon Pimm. These two are out due to a violations of team rules. Pimm is third on the team in overall scoring while Ferriero ranks seventh on the team. I look for a hard fought game tonight since both team are coming of utterly bad losses. NU goalie Chris Rawlings ranks near the top in all major categories so look for a big game from him. I will report who is in BC's net when I can.. For now, GO EAGLES

Players to watch

1. Steve Qualier. 7 G, 12 A on the season. Leads all Huskies in overall points

2. Ludwig Karlsson. Probably the best freshman in the league as he is second on the team in points. Very skilled player

3. Chris Rawlings. One of the best goalies in the who league. Had 34 stops last time vs BC.

Keys for the Eagles.

1. Just come out flying. I look for BC to come out flying after a rough go last night.

2. Start putting the puck in the net. BC really needs to start scoring. Tonight would be a nice to do so.

3. Backcheck. To many times, players are getting caught up in getting to deep in the offensive zone.

All Time Series- BC is 156-43-14 vs the Huskies. Coach York is 43-16-5 vs NU
