Coyle Nabs HE Rookie of Year


BU's own Charlie Coyle was named the Hockey East rookie of the year at the annual league awards dinner on Thursday night. A day earlier, Coyle and teammate Adam Clendening landed all-freshman team honors for their outstanding play in conference.

The two other major awards given out on Thursday were Player of the Year (given to UNH senior forward Paul Thompson) and Coach of the Year (given to BC's Jerry York). Personally, I'm just glad that Merrimack's Dennehy didn't get COY. That guy couldn't be a bigger jerk if he tried.

Coyle, who led Hockey East rookies in conference scoring, tallied 21 points (6g, 15a) in 27 conference games, while gathering 26 points (7g, 19a) in 37 total games.
