BC wins Beanpot, Headed to another Championship?

BC won its second consecutive Beanpot championship monday night with a thrilling OT victory over the Northeastern Huskies. Despite poor defense and a slew of bad penalties, the Eagles were able to come back with their speed and talent. Chris Kreider carried the team with 2 goals and an assist, and Jimmy Hayes scored off a rebound to win the game. Goaltender John Muse seemed to struggle, and looked a bit shaky on a long, blocker side goal that sailed past him untouched in the second period. Muse did make several strong saves in the third period, and was solid in overtime. Each of the last three winners of the Beanpot (BC, BU, BC) have gone on to win the NCAA championship, which is a good sign for the #1 ranked Eagles. Northeastern will have another shot to knock off BC as they face off Friday night at Conte Forum.
