BOSTON —Benn Ferriero scored his second goal with 41.3 seconds left in the game, lifting No. 15 Boston College to a 4-3 win against the Harvard men’s hockey team in the consolation game of the 57th Beanpot Monday night at sold-out TD Banknorth Garden.

Ferriero broke up a Crimson clear and went in alone to get a shot past Harvard sophomore goaltender Ryan Carroll, who made 42 saves in his first career start. The Eagles (13-9-4) overcame a two-goal, one-assist game by sophomore Pier-Olivier Michaud and handed the Crimson (5-14-4) its second one-goal loss in as many Beanpot games. Both Monday’s consolation and the Feb. 2 loss to No. 1 Boston University were tied at 3-3 entering the game’s final two minutes.

Sophomore Matt McCollem recorded two assists, while Michaud scored for third time in four games and finished the Beanpot with three goals and an assist. Senior Nick Coskren added a shorthanded goal for the Crimson, which held three one-goal leads in the game. BC held a 46-22 shots advantage. John Muse made 19 saves for the Eagles.

Following a strong opening shift by the senior line of Coskren, Jimmy Fraser and Steve Rolecek, sophomore Michael Biega had the game’s first shot, from the outside of the left circle. Carroll then got his first test, stopping Tim Filangieri, who found some space on the left on a rush.

Each team committed a pair of consecutive penalties, resulting in a five-on-three opportunity for the opposition. Harvard did not score on its two-man advantage, but had several chances, including Brian McCafferty’s one-timer off the right post. The Crimson converted after the first penalty expired, as Michaud buried a tough-angle rebound off a McCafferty shot from the right point. McCollem also assisted on the play.

The Eagles scored on their two-man edge, with Ferriero’s shot from the center point finding its way through traffic and into the goal. Joe Whitney and Barry Almeida recorded assists as the game went to the intermission tied, 1-1, with Boston College holding a 13-10 shots advantage.

The Crimson killed penalties late in the first period and early in the second. In between, Carroll made back-to-back tough saves on Paul Carey. It was again Michaud striking first in the period. After junior Chad Morin dislodged the puck from a BC player, Michaud moved it ahead to McCollem. The sophomore made a nifty move to pull the puck past a defender and put a shot on Muse. Michaud came into clean up for his team-leading sixth goal.

Boston College again answered, with a Jimmy Hayes pass deflecting in off the skate of Brian Gibbons just one minute, 22 seconds after Michaud’s second tally. The Eagles looked to be in position to gain their first lead, but it was instead the Crimson taking a 3-2 edge.

Michaud started the play by picking off a Muse clearing attempt. He threw a shot at the net that deflected off a defender and hit Muse. Coskren charged in to put away the rebound at 9:04 of the second period.

Following several nice saves by Carroll, the Eagles knotted things up, 3-3, when Ben Smith got his stick on a wraparound feed from Kyle Kucharski. Carroll made 21 saves in the period, as BC outshot Harvard, 23-9.

Cam Atkinson had the first great chance of the third period, getting behind the Harvard defense near the right post about nine minutes into the frame. He tried to lift a forehand shot over Carroll’s glove, but the Crimson netminder snagged it to keep the game tied.

The Eagles, however, held a 10-3 edge in third-period shots, took the lead on Ferriero’s game-winning individual effort and survived 27 seconds of six-on-five attacking after Harvard pulled Carroll in the final mnute.
