No. 9 Boston College set to host no. 18 New Hampshire

It's getting close to the end of the semester, which means the college hockey schedule is heating up. More specifically, league play and positions are becoming a bit more clear, although in Hockey East, things are always competitive. After a disappointing non-conference loss last weekend versus Holy Cross, Boston College is looking to get back on track as they host a ranked opponent in New Hampshire. The Wildcats are a point ahead of BC in the Hockey East standings, and are coming off last weekend in which they swept Colorado College on the road. The team's will play twice this weekend: Friday night at BC, and Saturday night at UNH. With four big points on the line, and puck drop is in under an hour, and here are your lines.
