From the FreeP: Shea it ain’t so: BC’s Edwin Shea nets winner early in third, BU falls 4-1

By Scott McLaughlin/DFP Staff

The Boston University men’s hockey team hung tough with No. 14/15 Boston College for two periods Saturday night, but the Eagles overpowered the Terriers in the third, scoring three unanswered goals to earn a 4-1 victory at Agganis Arena.

BC (8-3-2, 6-3-2 Hockey East) sophomore defenseman Edwin Shea broke the 1-1 deadlock just 38 seconds into the final stanza with his first career goal.

Shea picked up the winner after BC sophomore forward Cam Atkinson stormed down the right wing and nailed the right post with a snap shot. He then tracked down the rebound and worked it back to Shea at the right point. The Shrewsbury native threw the puck toward the front of the net and it deflected off the skate of BU (4-8-3, 2-7-2) junior defenseman Kevin Shattenkirk (minus-3) and into the net.
