As the last few seconds sweetly ticked away, I wanted to be on the ice for the awards presentation. Tough enough, I figured, as I didn't have any kind of media pass for the locker room area.

Only 364 days until the next Beanpot, and my mouth already salivates for that opening round matchup. Harvard vs. Boston University.
