It was a frustrating night at Conte Forum on Tuesday for the Boston College Women’s Hockey Team as they fell in a far-closer-than-the-score 3-0 decision to the 4th ranked Northeastern Huskies.
BC was a clear underdog in the game statistically, based on all the models, but given that the Eagles started out pretty strong against weak competition this year, the main goal was to see BC look like they belonged on the same ice as the national-title contending Northeastern Huskies. And despite the final score, it was clear that they did.
Boston College controlled play for large stretches of play, including early in the game, but there’s a feeling that the game might have turned out differently had it not been for a mishap early in the first period.
