The No. 10/9 Boston University men's ice hockey team will continue its 103rd season on Thursday when the Terriers host No. 6 Providence in the final home game of the regular season Puck drop is scheduled for 7 p.m.

BU will honor its Class of 2025 prior to the game. It is a group that has helped the Terriers win 94 games over the last four seasons, including two Beanpot championships, the 2023 Hockey East regular-season and tournament titles, and the 2024 Friendship Four. That's in addition to helping BU advance to the Frozen Four in each of the past two seasons.

Thursday's game will streamed on ESPN+ and an audio-only broadcast will be located here. Fans in Canada will be able to watch the game on TSN+.

TERRIER TIDBITS

BU needs just one point to earn a home game in the Hockey East quarterfinal round, having already secured a top-five finish in the league.
The Terriers can also clinch that home game on March 15 if UConn drops a point to Vermont on Thursday night.
With two points on Thursday, BU will be locked in as the No. 3 seed.
Thursday's game will also have PairWise implications, as BU enters the night one spot back of No. 6 Providence.
The Terriers have not played since earning a 2-2 tie and a shootout win at then-No. 9 UConn on Feb. 25.
Freshmen Sascha Boumedienne and Cole Hutson both lit the lamp in regulation to erase one-goal deficits.
Hutson was named Hockey East Rookie of the Month on Tuesday after leading all NCAA rookies in goals (5) and all NCAA defensemen in goals and points (11) during February.
Hutson leads all rookie defensemen as well as all Hockey East blue liners, regardless of class, in goals (10), assists (23) and points (33).
Junior Quinn Hutson enters Thursday on a five-game point streak (2g, 4a) and has notched a point in eight of his last nine games, totaling 13 points (6g, 7a) in that stretch.
Quinn 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 21 assists.
In five fixtures against top-10 teams, freshman Mikhail Yegorov owns a 1.71 goals-against average and a .945 save percentage.
That includes a shutout of Providence on Feb. 15.

SERIES HISTORY

Thursday will be the 200th meeting between BU and Providence in a series that started during the 1926-27 season.
The Terriers lead the series, 119-60-20 (.648).
That includes an 18-5-5 record at Agganis Arena.
BU has not lost to Providence at Agganis Arena since the 2018-19 season.
The Terriers are 7-1-1 in their last nine matchups with the Friars dating back to the 2020-21 campaign.
BU has shut out PC on 20 occasions while only being blanked six times.

LOOKING BACK AT THE FEBRUARY SERIES

BU split a weekend series with then-No. 7 Providence on Feb. 14-15, rebounding from a 6-3 road loss to shut out the Friars, 3-0, at Agganis.
Freshman Mikhail Yegorov stopped all 30 shots he faced for his first NCAA shutout and also recorded his first collegiate point with an assist on classmate Sascha Boumedienne's first career goal.
Boumedienne also had an assist on junior Quinn Hutson's 50th career goal, which was also his 100th career point.
Sophomore Jack Harvey opened the scoring and assisted on Hutson's strike while senior Matt Copponi, freshman Cole Hutson and freshman Cole Hutson had one assist each.
On Friday, junior Devin Kaplan scored twice, including a shorthanded goal in the third period, while junior Ryan Greene also lit the lamp.
Hutson and sophomore Tom Willander had two helpers apiece on Friday.
Sophomore Gavin McCarthy and freshman Kamil Bednarik both assisted on Kaplan's shorthanded strike.

SCOUTING THE FRIARS

Providence enters the weekend No. 6 in both national polls as well as the all-important PairWise rankings.
The Friars have won four of their last five games, with the Terriers handing Providence its lone loss in that span.
Graduate student Logan Will leads Providence with 23 points on eight goals and a team-best 15 assists while sophomore Tanner Adams has scored a team-high 11 goals and added 11 assists for 22 points.
Junior Philip Svedebäck has started 23 of his 24 appearances this season, going 14-6-4 with a .914 save percentage and a 2.37 goals-against average.
Graduate student Zachary Borgiel, a transfer from Merrimack, has started all 10 of his appearances.
He boasts a .931 save percentage and a 2.01 goals-against average.
