Episode
18 of Inside BU Hockey features Bernie Corbett’s interviews with Head Coach
David Quinn, freshman forward Brendan Collier, who scored his first collegiate
goal on Monday, and former All-American goalie and 2006-07 Hockey East Player of
the Year John Curry.
A recruited walk-on following a prep all-star season
at The Taft School, the Shorewood, Minn., native played only five minutes as a
freshman, but took over the starting job as a sophomore and never let go of it,
winning 59
games over three seasons, backstopping BU’s drive to the 2006 Hockey
East Championship (photo) and becoming a fan favorite at Agganis Arena. Curry, who has appeared in four games in the NHL with Pittsburgh
and now plays for the AHL Iowa Wild, will be inducted into the BU Hockey Hall
of Fame in May.
