BOSTON - Highlighted by a two-game home series against Michigan State and a pair of home games against Boston College, the Boston University men's ice hockey team announced its 2025-26 schedule on Wednesday.
BU will play 19 home games, including two exhibitions and a season-opening seven-game homestand, at Agganis Arena. Fans can purchase season tickets by clicking here; individual tickets will go on sale at a later date.
The Terriers will open the 2025-26 slate on Oct. 4 when they welcome LIU to Agganis Arena in the first-ever matchup between the two schools. BU will then host RPI in an exhibition game the following day before a two-game set with Colgate on Oct. 10-11. Michigan State will then visit Agganis for a weekend series on Oct. 17-18. The Spartans are one of eight NCAA Tournament teams from last year that BU will face this season.
BU will close its homestand by opening a home-and-home series with UConn on Oct. 25 before traveling to Maine for two tilts on Oct. 31 and Nov. 1. A home-and-home set with Merrimack (Nov. 7-8) follows before a non-conference contest at Quinnipiac on Nov. 15 and a me-and-home series with Northeastern (Nov. 21-22).
As previously announced, BU and Cornell will travel to New York City for the 10th edition of Red Hot Hockey at Madison Square Garden on Nov. 29. Fans can purchase tickets to that event by clicking here. The Terriers will then begin December with a pair of home games against Vermont (Dec. 5-6).
BU will fittingly be Northeastern's opponent in the final hockey game to be played at Matthews Arena, as the Terriers visit their old home on Dec. 13. Known then as Boston Arena, Matthews was the Terriers' home until 1971 when Walter Brown Arena opened.
The Terriers will welcome Simon Fraser back to Agganis for an exhibition on Jan. 3. A trip to Harvard (Jan. 12) is sandwiched between home-and-home weekends against UMass (Jan. 9-10) and UMass Lowell (Jan. 16-17). BU will then head to Providence on Jan. 23 before the Friars come to Agganis the next night.
The 300th Battle of Comm. Ave. will take place in Boston, either on the second night of the 73rd Dunkin' Men's Beanpot at TD Garden or at Agganis Arena on Feb. 27. BU bested BC, 4-1, in the 2024 title game to claim the program's 32nd Beanpot. BU and BC will meet for the 299th time at Agganis on Jan. 30, with the Terriers traveling to Chestnut Hill on Feb. 28.
BU will open its Beanpot title defense against Northeastern on Feb. 2 before hosting Maine on Feb. 6. A home-and-home series with New Hampshire on Feb. 13-14 precedes the aforementioned weekend set with BC, while the regular season is scheduled to conclude on March 7 at UMass Lowell.
All home and Hockey East games will be broadcast on ESPN+, as will the Terriers' trips to Quinnipiac and Harvard. Game times will be announced at a later date.
