When UConn men’s hockey’s 2017-18 season ended at the hands of Boston University last March, it marked the end of an era for the Huskies. It was the final game in the careers of UConn’s first recruiting class to play all four seasons in Hockey East.
They were there for all the moments in Hockey East, from the high points — beating Boston College in their first-ever conference game, to the low points. They set the foundation for the program and changed the mentality from “hoping to win” to “expecting to win”.
On top of that, the Huskies also lost Maxim Letunov and Joe Masonius to the pros.
