ST. LOUIS — The No. 10 Boston University men’s hockey team had a few highly touted freshmen entering this season, but it was the less-heralded Sahir Gill who was biggest star for the Terriers Sunday night.
Gill, a 5-10, 180 lb. freshman out of Terrace, British Columbia, scored one goal and notched three assists for BU in its 5-4 victory over No. 19 University of Notre Dame.
“Sahir Gill had a coming-out party for himself,” said BU head coach Jack Parker. “He was playing on the fourth line where he didn’t get a lot of ice time ,and he gets one goal and three assists. It was to the point where we had him playing on the power play a couple of times, and he did a good job. We’re real proud of him.”
Gill started his night early by scoring the first goal of the game 7:20 into the first period. Junior assistant captain David Warsofsky jumped up on the rush and charged in with Gill on a two-on-one. Warsofsky’s initial shot bounced off Notre Dame goalie Steve Summerhays’ pads and right to Gill’s stick. Gill easily punched the puck right past Summerhays for the score.
