Is It Hockey Time Yet?

By: Connor Lenahan

This Friday will bring the NHL draft and, almost assuredly, the selection of Boston University’s Jack Eichel second overall. This is awesome news and all, but there’s something else on my mind. BU just released their schedule for next season today. Know what that means? Time to get ready to play collegiate slap puck again.

There it is. And yes, you can start the three month countdown to puck drop at Agganis Arena. The only problem that stands out is the rivalry game with Boston College. Each of the two match ups fall when the schools are on Winter break. Well, I think we will be seeing more students back early than ever before for the premier rivalry in the city.

Most importantly: It’s almost hockey time, ladies and gentlemen. Get excited, the games are on the horizon.
