1988: Both Terrier captain Mike Kelfer and junior junior center David Tomlinson broke a Hockey East record by scoring seven points apiece in a 12-3 home victory over Providence. Kelfer, a Minnesota North Stars draft choice who is 7th on BU's all-time goal-scoring list with 83, scored three goals in a 3-minute-10-second span, which remains the fastest hattrick in Hockey East history.
"Sniper" Tomlinson, who is 7th on BU”s all-time scoring list with 179 points and who tallied 77 career goals, later played with Toronto, Winnipeg and Florida in the NHL. Joe Sacco, the third forward skating with Kelfer and Tomlinson that evening, went on to a long NHL career and now is in his second season as head coach of the AHL Lock Erie Monsters.
