Terrriers begin second semester with an exhibition contest against Concordia University today at 5 p.m. and, for the first time in five years, BU will play at the team’s former home, Walter Brown Arena.The game will be streamed on CBS All-Access.
All proceeds from the game will benefit the Travis Roy Foundation, which is dedicated to enhancing the life of individuals with spinal cord injuries and their families by providing adaptive equipment and to finding a cure through increased funding of research, resulting in self-reliance and the ability to be as independent as possible.
BU will be without freshman Trevor Zegras who is skating with Team USA in the World Junior Championships and it appears that his senior linemates, Patrick Harper and Captain Patrick Curry will be rested. However, two mid-year additions, center Wilmer Skoog and goalie Ashton Abel are expected to make their debuts in scarlet.
