UConn men’s hockey not feeling the pressure ahead of Hockey East semifinal

On Saturday, UConn men’s hockey recorded its first-ever Hockey East Playoff win with a 3-1 victory over the Boston University Terriers, unleashing a celebration unlike any other in program history.

As important as the victory was, the Huskies now have to put it behind them and refocus their attention on the Hockey East semifinals, where they’ll meet the Northeastern Huskies at TD Garden Friday. While the potential for a hangover from the win is a concern, head coach Mike Cavanaugh isn’t too worried.

“I think Northeastern can get us refocused pretty quick,” he said.
