“Just playing in the NHL is quite an accomplishment,” Boston College head coach Jerry York said earlier this week at Hockey East media day in the spiffy and revamped Legends. The Bruins were also holding a practice session where one of his protégés was skating a day after making his preseason debut against the Devils.
For York, who has sent a bevy of Eagles to the big sheet, this week marks a special occasion with two former players also hailing from the same household – as well as just a slap shot down the Expressway in Dorchester.
We’ll save the “sibling revelry” theme for feature coverage a few months down the calendar road when the Bruins and Rangers meet the day after Thanksgiving.
