BU defeated the BC Eagles at a snowy, cold Fenway Park last night to win the much hyped Frozen Fenway contest.
It was a great atmosphere and an even better game, with BU sneaking away with a 3-2 victory.
BU and BC both wore custom jerseys for the game, and as you can see on Ross Gaudet below, the Terriers' sewaters were modeled on a Red Sox uniform, with stenciled lettering in the Sox font, and with Red Sox skates on each arm. You really couldn't realize how cool each team's jerseys were until you examined them more closely, so you should definitely check out some of the photo galleries for a closer look.
David Warsofsky and Joe Pereira each returned to action, Warsofsky from the World Juniors and Pereiera from hernia surgery, and each celebrated their return with a goal. Freshman Wade Megan had the game winning goal in the second period for the Ice Dogs.
Mark Hendrickson of USCHO hated it, but we'll get to that a little later on. As a fan, and not somebody whose job it was to cover the game, I thoroughly enjoyed it. Perhaps I would have felt differently if I had to be there, as Mr. Hendrickson did. As I said, we'll look at that side of it later.
Kieran Millan played a solid game in net, especially late in the game to hold off a furious BC attack. We'll have plenty more on this huge win for the Terriers, but for now here are some cool links from the game.
