TERRIER TIDBITS

The Terriers enter Tuesday in third place in the Hockey East standings, eight points ahead of UConn and four points back of second-place Maine.
BU most recently split a weekend series with Northeastern, rebounding from a 5-1 home loss on Friday to defeat the Huskies, 3-1, on Saturday at Matthews Arena.
Freshman Cole Hutson scored the game-winning goal on Saturday and also had the primary assist on sophomore Shane Lachance's empty-netter.
Hutson is tied for second among NCAA defensemen with 23 assists and is third among the nation's blue liners with 32 points.
He also leads all freshmen defensemen with nine goals.
Junior Quinn Hutson enters Tuesday on a four-game point streak (2g, 3a) and has notched a point in seven of his last eight games, totaling 12 points (6g, 6a) in that stretch.
Quinn Hutson has exceeded last year's career-best point total of 36 thanks to a team-leading 18 goals to go along with a career-high 20 assists.
Since he made his NCAA debut on Jan. 25 at Boston College, freshman Mikhail Yegorov leads all goalies who have played in at least nine games with a .930 save percentage and a 1.98 goals-against average.
In four fixtures against top-10 teams, Yegorov owns a 1.67 goals-against average and a .950 save percentage.

SERIES HISTORY

BU is 17-9-2 (.643) all-time against UConn, having won five straight games against the Huskies.
That includes a 4-2 home win at Agganis Arena back in October.
Last year, the Terriers earned a 6-1 win in Storrs on Feb. 23 before shutting out the Huskies, 6-0, at Agganis the next night.

LAST TIME AGAINST THE HUSKIES

BU defeated UConn, 4-2, on Oct. 18, 2024.
Freshman Cole Eiserman tied the game at 1-1 just 1:22 into the second period before classmate Brandon Svoboda scored his first collegiate goal with 3:35 to play in the middle frame.
Eiserman's third-period strike proved to be the game-winner, giving BU a 3-1 lead just nine seconds into a power play.
Sophomore Tom Willander added an insurance goal with 2:17 remaining in regulation to create the 4-2 final.
Co-captains Ryan Greene and Shane Lachance assisted on Eiserman's game-winner, two of the eight different Terriers to record an assist.
Seniors Tristan Amonte and Jack Hughes, junior Devin Kaplan, sophomore Jack Harvey and freshmen Kamil Bednarik and Alex Zetterberg all had one helper apiece.
Senior goaltender Mathieu Caron made 24 saves.

SCOUTING UCONN

The Huskies enter the weekend on a three-game win streak and are currently fourth in the league standings, eight points behind third-place BU.
UConn is a near-lock for the NCAA Tournament, entering Tuesday ranked eighth in the PairWise, one spot behind BU.
After earning a 5-2 win over Alaska Anchorage on Feb. 12, the Huskies were off until earning a 3-2 overtime win over then-No. 4 Maine on Friday in Storrs.
Sophomore Jake Richard scored twice against the Black Bears, including in OT.
