That was shot down but now it is expected that there will be a doubleheader. The first game will be the woman's turn Northeastern vs UNH @ 5:oo. Then later that night the main event Boston University and Boston College's mens teams will face off at 8:00 at Fenway Park.

It is almost a lock on the fact that there will be close to or freezing temperatures weekend the excitement felt by every one.

"I’m really excited about that. It’s a dream come true,” said BC coach Jerry York while scouting at a summer league event at Walter Brown Arena yesterday. “We just need a cold clear night, don’t we? That would be pretty good. And having the women’s teams, wow!“It’s going to be a late start; how cold might that be?,” York asked quizzically. “I think it’ll be a lot of fun. I think ticket prices will be pretty good. I envision 25,000 people, maybe. What a thing for Hockey East.”

Compuware Coach Derek Szajner told The Hockey News:

“He’s a very dynamic player. He sees the ice well and he’s explosive on his skates. He skates one speed: full-out. He’s a playmaker. A constant threat when he has the puck. He can stickhandle in a phone booth.”
