Looking
ahead
In
his second start since joining the USPHL Portland Junior Pirates, 2014 recruit
Shane Starrett turned aside 34 of 35 shots in a 3-1 victory over Islanders
Hockey Club. The Providence Journal's @markdivver tweeted:
Major upgrade

2015
recruit Vasili Kolias (photo) scored the first two goals for Chicago Mission U18s in Sunday's game against Compuware, then added three assists in a 9-3 romp. The day before, he assisted on two goals, including the
game-winner, as the Chicago Mission edged Rocky Mountain, 3-2, in High Performance
League action. The defenseman from Schaumberg, IL, (also hometown of former
Terrier Zach Cohen) has 14 points (4g, 10a) in 17 HPL games.
Twenty-three
games into their season, a pair of Terriers recruits are among the scoring leaders for the Shattuck St.
Mary Prep squad. 2014 recruit Chase Phelps has an 8-16-24 line, while 2016
recruit Clayton Keller—one of only two sophomores on the team—has
11 goals and 11 assists.
Looking back
After
two games with Worcester, Matt Nieto travelled West to rejoin the San Jose Sharks after being recalled from the AHL affiliate.
An
ESPN.com feature on Alex
Chiasson
looks at the former BU MVP’s last twelve months as a pro, going from third line
in the AHL to a key contributor in the Dallas Stars offense, and how he’s
thrived playing alongside Ray Whitney.
Former
BU captain Chris Connolly, who had played for the past year and a half with
Tappara Tampere in the Finnish Elite League, has been acquired by the
Iserlohn Roosters
of the German DEL. Earlier this fall, Connolly was on Team USA, coached by Jack
Parker, which won the Deutschland Cup tournament in Munich.

Iserlohn report
Women’s
Team
The
Terriers’ three wins—beating Northeastern and then sweeping Minnesota-Duluth—
earned them the #8 ranking in the USCHO poll and Hockey East Team of the Week honors. Sophomore wing Sarah Lefort, who scored seven
goals—including a hat trick again NU—and added four assists, was named Hockey
East Player of the Week. She now leads the nation in goals with 15, is tied for
the conference points lead with 25, and is tied with linemate Louise Warren at
second in the country in game-winning goals with four.
Warren,
who had nine points (5g,4a) in the three games made the weekly top performers
list, joined by freshman goalie Victoria Hanson and junior defenseman Shannon
Stoneburgh. Warren
(+18), Lefort (+18) and freshman Samantha Sutherland (+16) are 1-2-3 in the
league in plus-minus.

GoTerriers.com report
The Eagle Tribune talked with Terrier Head Coach Brian Durocher about the development of his standout senior goalie Kerrin Sperry, beginning with her early recruitment at U.S. national camp and Lawrence Academy and throughout four varsity seasons. The North Andover, Mass., native, who has backstopped BU to two Hockey East tournament titles and two national championship game appearances during the past three seasons, currently sports a 12-2-1 record with a gaudy 1.86 GAA and a .939 save percentage, both tops in the conference.
The
first-place Terriers are on
semester break with their next action coming January 4 at home against
Dartmouth .
