Given the sellout or near sellout crowds of recent years, the league highly recommends that fans purchase their tickets
in advance to avoid missing one of college hockey’s premier conference tournaments. The winner of the tournament will
earn an automatic berth into the 63rd annual NCAA Championships. Advance ticket sales have steadily increased the
past couple of seasons with growing demand, particularly in December, when college hockey fans use the opportunity
to purchase them as holiday gifts.
“We expect heavy interest for the on sale date, after an exciting tournament during on 25th anniversary celebration,”
said Hockey East commissioner Joe Bertagna. “This year’s tournament will certainly be up for grabs, as the league
standings are wide open to date.”
Boston University won its seventh league tournament championship on March 21, 2009 in a 1-0 shutout of UMass-
Lowell during the league’s 25th anniversary celebration. The Terriers have won two of the last four league championships,
dating back to 2006.
The Hockey East Association is a 10-team, Division-I college hockey conference, with offices based in Wakefield,
Mass. Founded in 1983, the league has won six NCAA championships in the past 17 years. The league also sponsors
an eight-team women’s league which began play in 2002-03.
