Boston, MA (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Steven Whitney tallied twice and Johnny
Gaudreau once in a three-goal second-period burst as Boston College subdued
Northeastern, 7-1, to reach the Beanpot final for the third straight year.
Gaudreau finished with two scores as did Paul Carey for the Eagles, who will
square off against perennial rivals Boston University next Monday in the
championship of the 60th annual tournament.
The schools last met in the title tilt two years ago, with BC winning by a 4-3
count. It will be the sixth time in the last decade that these programs will
face each other for Boston bragging rights.
Parker Milner made 22 stops for the victory.
Anthony Bitetto scored for the Huskies, who have a date with Harvard in the
consolation game. Chris Rawlings was tagged for five goals on 29 shots in
defeat. Clay Witt allowed a pair of scores on 17 shots in the third period.
Whitney scored shorthanded just shy of the seven minute mark of the middle
period for a 3-1 contest, Gaudreau added his second of the contest at even
strength before nine minutes elapsed, and Whitney struck again while BC was a
man down at 13:11 for a four-goal spread.
Barry Almeida and Carey lit the lamp in the third period against Witt to cap
the rout.
Carey gave BC the lead at 5:14 of the opening period on a wrister from between
the circles, Gaudreau made it 2-0 just prior to the midway point of the
first, beating Rawlings through the five-hole.
Bitetto responded during a 5-on-3 for Northeastern at 12:34, but the Huskies
had no answers for Milner thereafter.
In the earlier semifinal, Kieran Millan stopped 29 shots and Wade Megan
tallied twice as BU took a 3-1 decision over Harvard.
Matt Nieto also scored for the Terriers, who advanced to the final for
the eighth time in the last 10 years.
Alex Killorn notched the lone goal for the Crimson. Starter Steve Michalek
was pulled after allowing three goals on 17 shots. Raphael Girard stopped all
eight shots he faced the rest of the way.

Pittsburgh earned their passage to the big game by beating their division rival, the Baltimore Ravens, 23-14 in yesterday's AFC Championship Game. The Steelers jumped on Baltimore early, building a 13-0 first half lead, and never let up on their way to a fairly easy win. Although the Ravens did close to within two points in the fourth quarter, it never appeared as if they had enough offense to pull off the upset.
The Steelers dominating defense held Baltimore to a total of 198 yards while allowing them to convert just three third downs in 13 attempts. Pittsburgh also forced quarterback Joe Flacco into three interceptions, one of which safety Troy Polamalu returned fourty yards for a touchdown.
The Cardinals, by far the playoff team with the longest odds to reach Super Bowl XLIII, did so yesterday with a 32-25 upset of the Philadelphia Eagles in the NFC Championship. Arizona charged out of the gates and built a 24-6 halftime lead that had the Eagles venerable defense reeling. Quarterback Kurt Warner and wide receiver Larry Fitzgerald did most of the damage, connecting on three first half touchdowns.
Arizona, however, could not sustain their momentum and the Eagles took a 25-24 with 10:45 left to play in the fourth. The Cardinals, with the franchise's first Super Bowl appearance hanging in the balance, mounted a fourteen play, 72 yard touchdown drive that consumed 7:52 off the clock. Warner hit running back Tim Hightower on a short screen for the go-ahead, game clinching score that will forever live in Cardinal infamy.
