How BU’s Jack Parker made the Hockey Hall of Fame: A yearlong pursuit by an old friend results in much-deserved nod - The Boston Globe Parker, who amassed 897 wins and three national championships in 40 seasons behind the bench at BU before retiring in 2013, had been overlooked. Then Bernie Corbett got involved.

Really enjoyed writing this piece. Grateful to work for an organization that covers college hockey and allows me to pursue stories like this.

Well, maybe you should, dammit!

Before James Hagens decides if he’ll return to BC, he’ll realize a dream by hearing his name called in the NHL Draft - The Boston Globe It’s hard to imagine any organization having an issue if Hagens chooses to return to campus. Most scouting reports indicate that he could use a bit more seasoning.

"He just has some real special attributes that will translate very well to the NHL.”

Boston College forward James Hagens will be one of the top picks in next month's draft, but another year at Chestnut Hill could be in order.

Why is Boston College men’s hockey No. 1 in the country? Credit the defense that ‘really drives our team’ - The Boston Globe The NCAA Tournament begins for BC Friday, when it takes on Bentley at 2 p.m. at SNHU Arena in Manchester, N.H.

Yes, BC can fill up the net, with Ryan Leonard leading the nation in goals. And Jacob Fowler is probably the best goalie in college. But how about that defense? Taking a look before BC's tourney opener this afternoon.

Price called dibs on this one, and delivered.

BC’s Ryan Leonard named Hobey Baker finalist, Hockey East player of the year - The Boston Globe He is fourth in points per game with 1.34 and has a nation-leading 16-game point streak, with 16 goals and 11 assists in that span.

The Hobey Baker Award committee only including one Hockey East player in the top 10 is, a choice. Hope they at least bought dinner first.

No letting up for Boston College, Boston University as Hockey East’s regular season wraps up - The Boston Globe Boston College, the Hockey East regular-season champion, shut out Merrimack to close out the schedule, and third-place Boston University rolled past Vermont.

There didn’t appear to be a lot on the line the final day of the regular season for BC and BU, but they each kept their foot on the gas heading into the postseason. Plus, Harvard moves on, Holy Cross survives a scare, and an end of an era at AIC.

I believe this is from when he auditioned for the Danger Island reboot.
