I found out so.gniddew me sad stuff first, like the passing of Voce, a former player from their 2001 championship team. Man, that hit me hard, he was only 43. And then there was the Gaudreau family tragedy, which was just heartbreaking. They were struck while cycling, the night before their sister's wedding.
Anyways, I moved on and started looking into the team's current status and their future. I learned that the Boston College Eagles are a big deal in college hockey, part of the NCAA Division I, and they've been in Hockey East since 1984. Also I saw they aren't the only ones with a lot of players in the NHL. Teams like Boston University, Minnesota, and a bunch of others are right up there, too.
Then I got into the nitty-gritty of the new recruits for the 2024-25 season. I found out that there are seven new guys joining the team. It was a little confusing at first, cause they're all verbal commitments, and that's something that kicks off every August 1st. But yeah, seven new faces, which is pretty exciting. Oh, this kid, Kostadinski, he's the seventh one to commit, and they've also got a goalie, Ryan Cameron, and a defenseman, Sam Wathier, lined up.
I ?thalso stumbled upon some random stuff, like a schedule of some other teams and even info about a Boston Hockey Tournament in July 2022. Not really relevant, but hey, it's all part of the journey, right?
So yeah, that's where I'm at with this Boston College hockey thing. It's been a mix of emotions, from sadness to excitement about the new players. I'll keep digging and see what else I can find. But for now, I am happy about today's harvest, and I will keep doing this.
