I hear Boston College sports fans are looking for good news… Well on Sunday, the Hockey East preseason media poll was released and it has BC finishing #3 in their conference this season. Does that count?
First in the poll is BU, followed
by a cluster of teams that includes Maine, BC, Providence, UConn, and UMass. Hockey East sent those exact five teams to the NCAA tournament last season, so this list isn’t exactly a surprise. But now without their star forwards and star goalie, the Eagles likely won’t be as dominant in the regular season as they were in 2024-25.
Read more about their upcoming season schedule here. In the next few weeks, we’ll have more preview content on BCI as we approach opening day against Quinnipiac on October 3rd, so stay tuned!
