The Boston College men’s hockey team dropped their third straight game, losing 5-2 to Merrimack. The Eagles dropped both of their two games against Merrimack in this home-and-home series, falling to 2-4-1 on the season and 2-3-0 in conference play. This was easily the worst BC has looked all season, as it never really looked like this was a game they had any chance of winning.
BC came out looking sluggish for the first few minutes, and Merrimack made them pay early on, scoring on a wraparound attempt after a long shift where BC’s first line was pinned in their defensive end.
