Eagles Drop 286th Battle of Comm Ave to Terriers
February 26, 2022 | Men's Hockey
BOSTON – Boston College dropped a 6-3 final against No. 13 Boston University in Hockey East play on Saturday night in the 286th Battle of Comm Ave at Agganis Arena.
Â
The Eagles (11-17-5, 6-12-3 HEA) suffered their first defeat to the Terriers at Agganis since 2017, snapping a four-game unbeaten streak (3-0-1).
Â
Luke Tuch and Dylan Peterson both scored twice for BU (18-10-3, 13-6-3 HEA) in the victory, while senior Jack McBain netted a pair of goals in his first game for the Eagles since New Year's Eve.
Â
Boston University stormed out to a 3-0 lead through 20 minutes on goals from Tuch, Peterson and Wilmer Skoog, two of which came 15 seconds apart in the final two minutes of the frame.
Â
McBain put Boston College on the board directly off an offensive zone faceoff at 7:29 of the second, but Peterson and Tuch answered with their second tallies of the night for a 5-1 cushion.
Â
McBain converted a power play rebound following a Jack St. Ivany one-timer at 16:25 to pull the Eagles back within three.
Â
A Brian Carrabes tip early in the third period restored a four-goal cushion for the Terriers. Casey Carreau went five-hole on a shorthanded breakaway later in the third to cap off the scoring.
Â
The teams close the home-and-home series on Sunday afternoon at 4 p.m. on NESN at Kelley Rink.
