BC beats BU in OT in 1st 1-0 Beanpot game in 64 year history

BOSTON - Alex Tuch scored 1:57 into overtime on Monday night, and Boston College beat Boston University for its 20th Beanpot championship in the first 1-0 game in tournament's 64-year history.

The Green Line rivals played a spirited but scoreless three regulation periods, which also included a 30-minute delay when a power surge knocked out the TV lights above the TD Garden rink.

Thatcher Demko stopped 30 BU shots for his school-record ninth shutout of the season. BC (20-5-4) has won six of the last seven Beanpots, the annual tournament that determines the college hockey bragging rights in Boston.

Sean Maguire made 41 saves for the Terriers (16-8-4). But he was beaten in overtime when Tuch took the puck in the middle of the ice near the blue line and wristed in the game-winner.
