In a game marred by matching misconduct penalties, the University of Maine Black Bears avenged last night's loss to the Boston University Terriers behind the slick goal tending of Garth Snow. Maine beat Boston University 6-1 to claim its second straight Hockey East regular season title. Paul Kariya led the way for the 31-1-2 Black Bears, collecting four more points, all of which were assists. Chris Ferraro scored a short-handed goal for Maine at the 19:01 mark in the second period. Notes: * Team Captain Jim Montgomery set a new record for the East in points. He has more than 200. * Last night's loss to BU snapped Maine's 44-game Alfond Arena unbeaten streak (40-0-4), its 42-game regular season unbeaten streak (38-0-4), and its 33-game unbeaten streak against Hockey East opponents (30-0-3).
