AMESBURY, Mass. – Seven Boston University ice hockey games will air on NESN this season as part of the initial Hockey East package that was unveiled on Wednesday. Extensive coverage of the 2025 men’s and women’s tournaments, as well as additional regular season games, will be announced at a later date.
Additionally, Hockey East and NESN have announced This Week in Hockey East, a weekly half-hour preview show produced by Hockey East featuring insight and analysis from Eric Gallanty and Bridgette Proulx. The show will air on NESN before every Friday night game. With nearly 20 Friday night games on NESN, coverage starting at 6:30 p.m. will be branded “Friday Night Hockey East on NESN.”
The 2024-25 Hockey East on NESN schedule kicks off this Friday (Oct. 11) with a women’s contest when Boston University and Northeastern square off in a rematch of the 2024 Beanpot title game at 7:00 p.m. The men’s slate begins Friday, Oct. 18, with UConn visiting Boston University at 7:00 p.m.
The women’s game at Boston College on Nov. 16 will also be on NESN while the men will have four other appearances – Dec. 11 at UMass, Jan. 17 at UNH and both ends of the home-and-home with Boston College on Jan. 24-25.
For the first time in nearly a decade, NESN and Hockey East have partnered to bring flex games back to schedule, which airs the most compelling games on Friday nights during the stretch run of the season. Information regarding these game selections will be announced at a later date.
Enhanced coverage of the women’s and men’s postseason begins in late February. The schedule concludes when Hockey East returns to TD Garden for the men’s tournament semifinals and championship.
