After the Boston College men’s hockey team took down the #10 UMass Minutemen this weekend in an impressive sweep of a top-10 team, it became clear that the Eagles are the obvious favorite to secure the #1 overall seed in the upcoming NCAA tournament. A lot can happen in just a few weeks, but the series against UMass was the biggest remaining obstacle on the schedule for BC. Since they lost to archrival Boston University in the Beanpot, BC has won four straight games and scored at least five goals in all of those contests, showing that their offense is not going to slow down as we head into the home stretch.
