Earlier today, Hockey East announced its yearly awards — and BC has a ton to celebrate. Spencer Knight was awarded the 2020-21 Hockey East Player of the Year, Nikita Nesterenko was tabbed Co-Rookie of the Year, and Coach York is Hockey East’s Coach of the Year.
Knight had a 15-2-1 record, leading Hockey East with his 15 wins. His .937 save percentage was tied for first in the league, and was third in the NCAA. He had at least 30 saves in ten of his games this season, and began the year on an 11-game unbeaten streak — going 10-0-1 in that span.
