BOSTON -- With his NHL team in town to face the Bruins, Florida Panthers defenseman and Boston College alum Mike Mottau spoke at the Beanpot Luncheon last Tuesday. He's one of many Beanpot alums to be skating in the National Hockey League this season.
Boston College has 23 alums in the NHL this season while Boston University is second most with 14. Harvard has four and Northeastern has two.
Craig Adams is the oldest player still playing in the NHL from a Beanpot school. The Harvard alum graduated in 1999.
Eight Beanpot alums have suited up alongside Sidney Crosby for the Pittsburgh Penguins this season.
