Shattenkirk, Colby Cohen Sign With the Avs

Terriers Defensmen To Skip Senior Season

Add Shatty and Colby to the growing list of Hockey East players to jump ship from college to the pros.  Both signed entry level pro contracts with the Colorado Avalanche saturday, and will report to the team's AHL affiliate, the Lake Erie monsters.

See Ya Later, Shatty

For the second straight season, the Terriers have lost their senior captain to be to the pros a year too soon.  This time around, they also happened to lose their best goal-scoring defensmean in Cohen. 


You Too Colby.  And I Was Just Starting to Like You.

The two star blue-liners join former Assistant Captain and leading point scorer Nick Bonino in the pros.  Bonino bolted for Anaheim, where he has already registered an NHL goal.

Losing three rising seniors to the pros from a team that often seemed desperate for leadership as it was is, needless to say, a tremendous blow to BU's chances in 2010-2011.

Plenty more perspective on this to come shortly.
