The Boston University men's ice hockey team will continue its 104th season this weekend when the Terriers welcome Boston College to a sold-out Agganis Arena for the 299th Battle of Comm Ave. Puck drop on NESN and ESPN+ is scheduled for 7 p.m. An audio-only broadcast for both games will be located here.

TERRIER TIDBITS

The Terriers are coming off being swept by then-No. 11 Providence last weekend; the Friars had swept BC the previous weekend.
In last Friday's 4-3 defeat, sophomore Cole Eiserman scored twice, both times off assists by classmate Brandon Svoboda.
Freshman Tynan Lawrence scored his first collegiate goal at Providence.
Eiserman became the first Terrier to reach 10 goals this season.
He is one of just five Hockey East skaters to record 10 goals in each of the past two seasons.
Sophomore Cole Hutson, a Hobey Baker Award nominee, is tied for fourth among NCAA defenseman and first among all Hockey East blue liners with 23 points on eight goals and 15 assists.
Hutson also paces all NCAA blue liners with four game-winning goals.
BU has won its past five pre-Beanpot games and has followed those five fixtures with an opening-round win on four occasions.

SERIES HISTORY

The Comm. Ave. rivals have met 298 times and BU leads the series, 141-136-21 (.508).
No other opponent has appeared on BU's schedule more often; Northeastern is the next closest, having faced BU 257 times since the 1930-31 season.
The first game in BU Hockey history was on Feb. 6, 1918, against Boston College at Boston Arena.
The Terriers won the last meeting between the longtime rivals, defeating BC, 4-1, in last year's Beanpot title game.
BU and BC have played 46 overtime games and the Eagles hold a 16-10-20 edge.
The Terriers have 11 of the 22 shutouts in the series history.

SCOUTING THE EAGLES

BC bounced back from being swept by Providence with a weekend sweep of New Hampshire.
The Eagles earned a 5-2 home win on Friday and a 3-0 road victory the next night.
Sophomore Dean Letourneau leads BC with 13 goals and is tied with classmate James Hagens (11g, 12a) for the team lead in points (23).
Sophomore Jake Sondreal paces BC with 13 assists.
Junior Will Vote scored all three goals in Saturday's triumph at UNH and also had two assists on Friday.
Freshman goaltender Louka Cloutier was named Hockey East Rookie of the Week on Monday after making 29 saves in Saturday's shutout and stopping 23 shots the previous night.
He is 12-6-1 this year with a .912 save percentage and a 2.22 goals-against average.
