’10-’11 Flashback: Beanpot Championship Game

July 12th, 2011

It may have been a loss, but it was one of the most thrilling Beanpot title games in recent memory, if not for the stellar play of both teams, but the fact that in the 13 goals scored, neither team took the lead by more than one at any given time. At exactly six minutes into overtime, Jimmy Hayes got the game winner, ruining Northeastern’s hopes of ending their 23-year Beanpot drought.

From Jared Shafran’s game recap:

“I’ve been in a lot of big games,” head coach Greg Cronin said. “And that game had more drama and back-and-forth character from both teams [than any other]. And I said to myself after the third period, ‘It’s a shame someone’s going to lose this.’ If someone came in and bought tickets, they got every penny’s worth of their money.”

Off The Wires: Cronin issues denial, a new CAA hoops rotation

April 28th, 2011

>>> On Tuesday, Greg Cronin responded to swirling internet rumors of his departure from Northeastern with a simple, succinct answer to the question of whether he planned to stay at Northeastern: “Yes.”

On a related note, Cronin is now in Europe with Team USA as they participate in the IIHF World Championships. The team won its first game, an exhibition against pool-play opponent Austria. Meanwhile, all of the team’s games will be televised by Versus, the network announced today:

>>> With a new CAA basketball schedule rotation released this week, voices from around the league are chiming in with their thoughts on the conference schedule. Mike Litos, as usual, hits the nail on the head:

I’ve got to figure that coaches took budget into account, as well as traditional rivals (i.e., DU/YouDee and Mason/JMU), probably before looking at strength. It’s easy to rationalize the competitive angle. After all, the rotating H/H and single away or home game provides eight games each year and will theoretically balance out competitiveness.

Now, for some other odds and ends:

>>> Florence Shelling and Switzerland were upset by Russia in the quarterfinal round of the IIHF Women’s World Championship, losing 5-4 in overtime after giving up a 3-goal lead. (IIHF.com)

>>> The Daily Collegian has a recap of Northeastern’s 4-2 loss to UMass in the consolation round of the Baseball Beanpot.

Beanpot Championship: BC 7, NU 6 (OT)

February 15th, 2011

In one of the most exciting and unpredictable Beanpot championships in recent memory, the Boston College Eagles got a game winning goal in overtime from Jimmy Hayes to defeat Northeastern 7-6.

The win gives BC back-to-back Beanpot titles for the first time since the mid sixties and keeps Northeastern hoping for next year as the Huskies haven’t had bragging rights in the tournament since 1988.

Hayes got the final tally exactly 6:00 into the extra period, on a rebound from a shot by Chris Kreider and was all alone to finish a game which the Huskies had led three different times.

The Eagles scored two goals in a 1:32 span in the middle of the third period to get the lead back at 6-5 with under nine minutes remaining and looked like they were in position to win but the Huskies would not be denied as Wade MacLeod scored his fourteenth goal of the season to tie the game at 6-6 with just 1:46 left in regulation.

“I’ve been in a lot of big games,” head coach Greg Cronin said. “And that game had more drama and back-and-forth character from both teams [than any other]. And I said to myself after the third period, ‘It’s a shame someone’s going to lose this.’ If someone came in and bought tickets, they got every penny’s worth of their money.”

10 different Huskies registered a point in the loss and sophomore goaltender Chris Rawlings made 39 saves. Rawlings was later given the tournament’s Eberly Award, which goes to the netminder with the highest save percentage.

Kreider scored twice in the game, both on power plays in the second and third period, and was named the tournament’s MVP.

These two teams will go head-to-head twice more this weekend, when they’ll play a home-and-home Hockey East series. The Eagles are tied with UNH atop the standings, while the Huskies are in sixth, one point behind Maine. Friday night’s game will be at Conte Forum in Newton and the teams will wrap up their 4-game season series the following night at Matthews Arena.

One thing’s for sure, if the next two games are anything like the one played at the TD Garden last night, it’s going to be a wild ride.

“When we got that tying goal,” MacLeod said, “I thought we were going to carry that momentum into OT. I thought it was going to be our year, but it was not to be.”
