It’s been a strange journey for Boston University junior forward Corey Trivino.
A second-round selection by the New York Islanders in the 2008 NHL draft, the Etobicoke, Ontario native was one of a handful of key recruits to join BU men’s hockey coach Jack Parker’s squad in 2008.
Centering fellow freshmen Vinny Saponari and Chris Connolly, the rookie played an important –– though clearly secondary –– role on one of the greatest college hockey teams in recent memory.
Then last season, Parker pegged Trivino as one of multiple players who would need to up his game if the Terriers were to make a run at a repeat. Things didn’t quite work out. Charged primarily with second-line centerman duties, the then-sophomore emerged as one of Hockey East’s finest defensive forwards. That was all well and dandy, but Trivino wasn’t drafted in the second round to kill penalties.
Trivino is a bum!
He should have left last year and not come back. We need his scholarship to get someone who can score!
He scored last night
