04/10/2008 -
Denver, CO (Sportsbook Betting Lines) - Nathan Gerbe recorded a hat trick and added an
assist, as Boston College reached the championship game by defeating
North Dakota, 6-1, in the Frozen Four.
Ben Smith and Dan Bertram each posted a goal and an assist for the Eagles
(24-11-8), who will play the winner of the Notre Dame/Michigan game later on
Thursday. Boston College will be making its third straight appearance in the
title game. Last year, the Eagles lost to Michigan State, 3-1. In 2006, Boston
College fell to Wisconsin, 2-1.
Brian Gibbons collected two helpers, while John Muse stopped 29-of-30 shots to
pick up the win.
Jake Marto scored the lone goal for the Fighting Sioux (28-11-4), who were
making their fourth consecutive trip to the Frozen Four. Jean-Philippe
Lamoureux allowed six goals on 27 shots in defeat.
This marks the third straight year that North Dakota was ousted by Boston
College in the semifinals.
The Eagles exploded for four goals in the first period.
Boston College grabbed a 1-0 lead when Andrew Orpik scored 7:08 into the
first. A North Dakota turnover at its offensive blue line led to a 2-on-1 for
the Eagles. Kyle Kucharski slipped the puck to Orpik in the slot and he slid
the disc underneath the pads of Lamoureux.
Gerbe made it 2-0 with a short-handed goal at the 13:14 mark. Gerbe raced down
the left side and snapped a shot from the circle that went between the legs of
Lamoureux.
Gerbe lit the lamp again with 4:47 remaining, as his shot squeezed through
Lamoureux and trickled across the goal line.
A costly gaffe by the Fighting Sioux behind their own net led to Pat Gannon
throwing the puck out to Bertram, who ripped home a shot with 15 seconds left
in the opening stanza.
Gerbe completed the hat trick with a power-play goal at the 6:37 mark of the
middle stanza and Smith found the back of the net at 11:58 to give the Eagles
a commanding 6-0 lead.
Marto broke Muse's shutout bid with 1:16 to play in regulation.
Boston College hasn't won the title since 2001.

El Duque expected to throw Tuesday
PORT ST. LUCIE, Fla. -- New York Mets pitcher Orlando Hernandez, sidelined at spring training because of arthritis in his neck, is expected to resume throwing on Tuesday.
Hernandez received a cortisone shot Thursday after leaving camp and returning to New York to have his neck examined. The 41-year-old right-hander is penciled in as the team's No. 2 starter behind Tom Glavine.
El Duque's health is a major issue for the Mets, who won the NL East in 2007 and came within one victory of the World Series. Their aging and unsettled rotation is a big question mark this year.
MySportsbook.com has the Mets as -110 favorites to repeat as NL East champions odds.
Hernandez went 11-11 with a 4.66 ERA last season, including 9-7 with a 4.09 ERA in 20 starts after the Mets acquired him from Arizona in late May. But he missed the playoffs because of a torn calf muscle.
New York already is without Pedro Martinez, out until at least midseason following rotator cuff surgery. Among those competing for starting jobs are prospects Mike Pelfrey, Philip Humber and Jason Vargas, plus veterans Chan Ho Park, Jorge Sosa and Aaron Sele.
Notes: Mets manager Willie Randolph is excited about two new utility players he could have on his bench: Damion Easley and David Newhan. ''Their value is really all over the place,'' Randolph said. Easley can play anywhere in the infield and could be used as an emergency outfielder, though Randolph said he would prefer to keep the veteran in the infield. Newhan, meanwhile, can play second base, third or any outfield position for the Mets. ''I love versatility,'' Randolph said. ''I love guys that can give me options when I need them to step in.''
