BC HIGHLIGHTS & GAME NOTES
- With the setback Monday evening, Boston College falls to 34-11 all-time against Northeastern in Beanpot action and 13-5 against the Huskies' in the consolation round. BC is now 78-52 all-time in Beanpot play dating back to the inaugural 1952 tournament.
- With his first period goal, freshman David Cotton becomes the seventh Eagle on the roster to tally at least one point in his Beanpot career. Senior Ryan Fitzgerald, who tallied an assist in last week's semifinal game against BU, leads all Eagles in career Beanpot points with 6 points (3 - 3 - 6).
- Colin White's third period goal made him the second player on the Eagles roster with at least two career goals in Beanpot action. The sophomore netted the game-winning goal in the first round of the 2016 Beanpot against Harvard. Only teammate Ryan Fitzgerald has more goals in Beanpot play (3).
- Northeastern went scoreless on the power play for the first time in 19 games.
GOAL DESCRIPTIONS
FIRST GOAL (1-0 – BC) FIRST PERIOD – David Cotton – 17:31 – EVEN
- Freshman forward David Cotton tallied his ninth of the season late in the first period, carrying the puck up the left side of the ice and firing a wrister on net from the front of the circle that beat the Northeastern netminder stick side for the game's first goal.
SECOND GOAL (1-1) SECOND PERIOD – Matt Filipe – 12:26 – EVEN
- Northeastern evened the score in the second period after the Huskies' Matt Filipe intercepted the puck from a BC defender in the Eagles offensive zone and skated the length of the ice, finishing the play by going top shelf on Woll.
THIRD GOAL (2-1 NU) THIRD PERIOD – Matt Filipe – 6:47 – EVEN
- Filipe added his second of the game in the third period to help Northeastern grab its first lead of the evening. With the Huskies in possession in front of the Eagles net, Brendan Collier found a trailing Filipe coming down center ice to beat Woll stick side.
FOURTH GOAL (2-2) THIRD PERIOD – Colin White – 13:29 – EVEN
- Boston College evened the score at two late in the third period via a Colin White goal. With the Eagles possession in their own corner, sophomore Casey Fitzgerald found White backdoor to Huskies' goaltender stickside.
FIFTH GOAL (3-2 NU) THIRD PERIOD – Dylan Sikura – 19:17 – EVEN
- Northeastern regained the lead with less than a minute remaining in the final frame. With possession along the left side of the zone, Zach Aston-Reese found Dylan Sikura between the two circles, beating Woll for what was the eventual game winner. The goal came just seconds after BC looked to take a 3-2 lead, but the goal was overturned by the officials due to goaltender interference on video replay.
SIXTH GOAL (4-2 NU) THIRD PERIOD – Adam Gaudette – 19:32 – EVEN
- Following a Boston College timeout with the Eagles goaltender pulled for an extra skater, Gaudette grabbed the puck and beat the only defender in front of him to add the insurance goal with 28 second left.
