Boston University junior Chris Drury had a pretty special night. He scored four goals ... two of which were shorthanded ... and one on a 4-on-4 situation. I've seen two B.U. games now and both were witness to spectacular plays by this talented forward. I also am starting to hear more and more about his work ethic. A friend of mine who was invited on the team trip up to Clarkson and St. Lawrence was telling me that the thing that strikes him about Drury is the kids work ethic. Practice sessions show that this player is relentless in drills ... clearly showing a determination and discipline not seen all that often. In quotes after last nights game, B.U. coach Jack Parker was heard to say about his star forward's work ethic that he hasn't seen anything like it in quite some time. The game story on USCHO has a few Drury quotes and suggests as does Drury that the "Juniors" experience earlier this year was a wake-up call for himself ... to bear down if he had any hopes of insuring his competiveness at a world and/or pro level. Colorado surely has gold in this draftee. Drury's stats now total 20 goals and 30 points in 15 games .... a 2.00/Pts/Game average. He leads the nation in goals. A look at my schedule shows that my beloved Lowell Riverhawks won't be playing B.U. for another 6 weeks when they'll see them for the first of 3 games in 20 days. Hot tickets I'm sure. By the way, B.C.'s loss solidifies Lowell's hold on third place and guarantees it beyond the game against B.C. on 1/3. UML won 6-4 at B.C on 11/1 and B.C. returned the favor at Lowell 8-4 on 11/2.
