BU 3, Maine 2 (OT)

 

The unranked (for now) BU Terriers beat No. 18 Maine, 3-2, when Ryder Ritchie hit a goal 1:42 minutes into overtime tonight. 

Maine took an early lead, but BU's Jack Murtagh's tied the game at 1-1 in the second period. Maine scored again late in the period, but Cole Eiserman tied the game again in the third with his 11th goal of the season to force the overtime. Mikhail Yegorov finished the game with 28 saves in the net.

The Terriers are 13-13-2 on the season and 9-10-0 in conference play. Their 26 points ties them with UMass for fourth place in Hockey East. 

The Terriers are off tomorrow in order to prep for Monday night's Beanpot championship game against the No. 11 Boston College Eagles (15-9-1).
