It wasn’t pretty and it wasn’t easy, but the Boston College men’s hockey team dug themselves out of an early hole and used some depth scoring to get back to .500 on the year, knocking off UConn 3-2. The win moved the Eagles to 6-6-2 on the season (6-1-2 in Hockey East) and sent them into the holiday break on a positive note.
The Huskies struck first with a shorthanded goal right before a BC power play chance expired, 6:14 into the period. A quick one timer beat Joe Woll up high to end his shutout streak at 184 minutes, the equivalent of just more than nine periods of work.
