College Hockey Preview It's Hockey East's turn now
There are some big games this weekend, mainly in Hockey East.
Providence can prove they belong in first place with games at Boston University tommorrow night, then the Friars will travel back to Providence as Boston College will enter Schnider Arena which could be for first place in the conference. Senior Forward Torry Gajda is a player to watch out for as he is one of the tops in Hockey East in scoring with 24 points (12 G, 12 A). Also Hockey East defensive player of the month goaltender Tyler Sims has been playing great in net. The Sophomore goaltender went 5-0 in the month of December in which Sims only allowed 7 goals in 5 games.
In another big series, the Vermont Cattamounts will travel to New Hampshire to face the Wildcats in their 2 game series both at the Whittamore Center in Durham. UNH has had the scoring this year, but yet they are still inconsistant on the D. Sophomore goaltender Kevin Regan has struggled all year, look for Senior goaltender Jeff Pietrasiak to start both games. The Cattamounts however just came off their Shearton/TD Banknorth tournament victory thanks to the help of Sophomore goaltender Joe Fallon shutout both Dartmouth (1-0) and Clarkson (3-0). Fallon will have his hands full this weekend against the number one offense in Hockey East.
In other College Hockey action this weekend:
Miami (Ohio) will look to continue the nations longest unbeaten streak to 11 as the Redhawks will host Northern Michigan in Oxford.
Bowling Green just coming off winning the UCONN Hockey classic will look to gain momentum as the Falcons travel to Ohio State to face the Buckeyes.
And just coming off a big upset against New Hampshire, Niagara will look to upset Minnesota as they travel to Minneapolis for 2 at Mariucci Arena where the Gophers are 6-3-1.
Who will prevail? Go to the weekly report to find out all the information of the weekend.
