Boston University head coach Jack Parker yesterday
\nreleased a statement that four suspended hockey
\nplayers will be permitted to rejoin the Terriers team
\nin its first game back from the winter exam break, a
\nDecember 30 game at home against Merrimack.<\/p>\n
Parker had suspended the quartet – seniors Bryan
\nEwing, Brian McGuirk, Dan McGoff and junior Brandon
\nYip – indefinitely for what he called a violation of
\nteam rules. All of the players have returned to
\npractice with the team but will not be allowed to
\ndress for Thursday night’s non-league game against
\nDartmouth.<\/p>\n
Though it will be 22 days between games played for the
\nsuspended players, they will only miss two games total
\nbecause of the team’s winter break.<\/p>\n
As part of the suspensions, Parker also stripped
\nMcGuirk of his captaincy, naming junior Pete MacArthur
\ncaptain for last Friday’s contest against
\nMass.-Lowell. He said last week that, despite being
\nallowed to once again play, McGuirk not will regain
\nhis captain’s ‘C’, instead MacArthur will remain
\ncaptain through the remainder of the season.<\/p>\n
The suspensions added turmoil to an already difficult
\nseason for the Terriers. BU currently sits in last
\nplace in Hockey East with a 3-6-1 record and a 4-10-2
\nrecord overall.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
