Hockey East race is tightening

Just when you think you have Hockey East figured out, the league landscape changes.

Take Boston College, for example. The Eagles lost their season opener but then went on a 10-0 run before their next loss. The team has hit a rough patch, however, in large part because of subpar team defense. Over the last 12 games, the Eagles are 4-6-2; they have dropped four of their last five but remain in first place by 2 points.
