Inside the BC-BU hockey rivalry

What makes BC and BU different programs is how they got here. The history of BC hockey is one dedicated to the American hockey players, BU abandoned the American players and had nearly all Canadian players. I think BC should get more credit than it does for their basically sticking with the Americans. I think Canadians playing for BC now appreciate the heritage of Boston College.

But only Denver has 10 National Titles....not to mention 19 Frozen 4s.

This is awesome. Hopefully you guys at NEHJ get a chance to do a couple more interviews before the Beanpot. My suggestion: Mr. Jamie Armstrong. He played for BU and then transferred to BC and he has had a good year so far for BC. Would be interesting to hear his thoughts.

Ive always been a BU fan. Grew up in same town as Pandolfos and Billy Pierce. Do BU fans cheer for BC in Frozen Four or am i the only one?

[@JasonSmith-pe5py]

Didn't matter-we beat ya both-lol.

Go BC!

I am happy that BC and BU simultaneously had great seasons. Saying that they are the greatest college rivalry is a stretch. I would say MSU&UM is the best but would open the floor to both being "one of the best"..anyway the 1v2 BCBU mic'd up documentary made Cellebrini look like a punk. I wouldn't draft him. Too much of a project.
