December 01, 2023 | Men's Hockey
CHESTNUT HILL, Mass. – Cam Lund finished a 2-on-1 from the left circle with 6:08 left in regulation to break a 3-3 deadlock and Northeastern secured a 5-3 Hockey East road victory over No. 1 Boston College on Friday night in front of a sellout crowd of 7,884 at Kelley Rink.
Â
The Eagles saw their four-game winning streak snapped as they dropped to 11-3-1 (4-2-1 HEA), while the Huskies improved to 4-7-1 (1-7-0 HEA) after their first league win.
Â
Northeastern opened the scoring 9:22 into the first period when Braden Doyle beat Jacob Fowler (26 saves) blocker side from the high slot through a partial screen.
Â
Lund doubled the Huskies' lead two minutes later, converting a wraparound past a sprawling Fowler at the left post.
Â
NU added a third from defenseman Matthew Staudacher, who fired a shot high short side from the left wing at 16:16 of the opening frame.
Â
Boston College stormed back to tie the game with three goals in the second period. Mike Posma put the Eagles on the board with a shorthanded goal, finishing a centering pass at the edge of the crease from Andre Gasseau at 11:28.
Â
Gabe Perreault pushed a rebound to Ryan Leonard at the right doorstep for a power play goal at 15:20, and captain Eamon Powell went high short side with the man advantage from outside the right dot in the period's final minute to knot the score.
Â
Leonard's goal was his ninth in the last nine games as the rookie extended his point streak to nine games.
Â
Lund's game-winner came off a 2-on-1 with six minutes left in regulation as he one-timed a cross-ice pass from Jack Williams inside the left post. Lund added an empty-netter in the closing minutes to complete his hat trick.
Â
Boston College was 2-for-5 on the power play and 3-for-3 on the penalty kill.
Â
The teams meet again on Saturday night at Matthews Arena to close the home-and-home series with faceoff set for 8 p.m. on ESPN+ and TSN+ in Canada.
