UConn men’s hockey earned one of its most thrilling wins in its Hockey East history as it claimed a 5-4 decision over the No. 18 Boston College Eagles.
The Eagles tied the game at 4-4 with 56 seconds left, but Kevin O’Neil came back with a game-winner for the Huskies 22 seconds later thanks to a snipe from the face-off circle.
The UConn GAME WINNER!!!
