» UConn hits the road to visit a pair of former Atlantic Hockey Association foes in AIC and Sacred Heart this weekend. The Huskies are coming off a season-opening Hockey East split at Maine last week. The Black Bears grabbed a 4-3 overtime win on Friday night but UConn hit back with a 5-1 win on Saturday.

» The Huskies were 0-1-2 last season against teams from their former conference, falling at home to Sacred Heart, 4-2, and tying AIC at home, 2-2, and RIT on the road, 1-1.

» UConn is 1-4-2 against teams from Atlantic Hockey since leaving the conference in 2014-15 for Hockey East. The Huskies were an inaugural member of the league, playing 11 seasons in Atlantic Hockey. UConn plays three teams from the AHA this season, this weekend’s set and a home game with RIT in November.

» In last weekend’s split with Maine, the eight different Huskies scored goals. UConn’s top-two lines produced 11 points on the weekend. The top-line of juniors Karl El-Mir and Maxim Letunov and sophomore Alexander Payusov had three goals and three assists. The line of seniors Spencer Naas and Kasperi Ojantakanen and sophomore Benjamin Freeman finishedwithtwogoalsandthreeassists.

» TheUConnspecialteamsfinishedwiththreepowerplaygoalsandaddedashorthandedgoal off the stick of senior Corey Ronan, his fourth career shorty.

» Senior Jeff Wight returned to the Husky lineup after missing all but two games last season with injury. Wight had a big weekend with a goal and two assists in his return to the ice.

» Sophomore goaltender Adam Huska made 38 saves in Saturday’s 5-1 win. Huska was named to the 2018 Mike Richter Award Watch List last week. The award annually honors themostoutstandinggoaltenderinNCAADivisionIhockey.

Mike Cavanaugh begins his fifth season at the helm of the UConn men’s hockey program in 2017-18. Cavanaugh has guided UConn through the transi-tion to Hockey East and has the Huskies on the rise in the toughest hockey conference in the nation.

The Huskies have taken steps forward in each of their three seasons in Hockey East and are coming off a year where they collected their most confer-ence wins (8) and points (20) in 2016-17. Last season also saw a pair of program “firsts” under Ca-vanaugh with Tage Thompson becoming UConn’s first-ever NHL first round draft pick when he was

selected by the St. Louis Blues, 24th overall. In addition, Thompson (USA) and Adam Huska (Slovakia) became the first Huskies to play in the 2017 International Ice Hockey Federation World Junior Championship for their respective countries. Thompson and Team USA brought home the gold medal at the tournament.

During year two in Hockey East, Cavanaugh led the Huskies continued climb up the league ranks. UConn turned in an eighth place finish in the standings and earned the program’s first-ever home playoff series in the league. The program saw another first in 2016-17 as rookie Maxim Letunov became the first Husky to earn all-conference honors after a 40-point season placed him on the Hockey East All-Rookie team and the Hockey East All-Star second team.

During the 2014-15 Hockey East debut season, the Huskies were tabbed to finish last in the preseason coaches’ poll, but Cavanaugh led his team to a 7-11-4 league mark, tied with Maine for ninth in the final standings. Along the way the Huskies knocked off four teams ranked in the national polls, highlighted by a 1-0 win over No. 3 ranked Boston College in the program’s first-ever Hockey East home game.

The new era of UConn hockey also saw the Huskies move in to a new home at the XL Center in downtown Hartford. The program finished their inaugural season leading Hockey East in home attendance, averaging 5,396 fans per game, and set new records for season ticket sales in both 2014-15 and 2015-17. In year two, the Huskies again averaged over 5,000 fans a night (5,129) and once again ranked among the top-12 programs in the nation in home attendance.

On May 8, 2013, Cavanaugh was named the fourth head men’s hockey coach in UConn history dating back to the inception of the program in 1960. During his first season as a head coach, Cavanaugh led the Huskies through their final season in the Atlantic Hockey Association with a .611 winning percentage and 15-9-3 record in the conference, tying them for third place in the standings with Air Force. Overall, the Huskies finished with an 18-14-4 record, post-ing consecutive winning seasons for just the second time in the program’s Division I history (1998-present) and capping off the program’s best four-year Division I stretch with 68 wins (2010-11 through 2013-14).

The Huskies’ defense was tops in Atlantic Hockey in 2013-14, allowing a league-low 2.39 goals per game and finishing with an 82.5 penalty killing percentage. UConn’s 15 league wins matched the AHA win total during the 2006-07 campaign for most in program history. The sea-son’s highlight was the Huskies first-ever win against a top-10 nationally-ranked team when they

dealt future Hockey East foe and #9 ranked Providence College a 3-2 defeat at Schneider Arena.

Off the ice, Cavanaugh was the recipient of the Jim Calhoun Community Service Award at the 2017 Franciscan Sports Banquet. He has forged a partnership with the Hartford Police Activities League (PAL), a non-profit unit with the Hartford Police Department, as a way to encourage community service within the men’s ice hockey team. PAL offers inner city youth recreational and educational activities that provide a welcomed alternative to violence, gang membership, truancy and substance abuse. The men’s ice hockey team regularly participates in pick-up street hockey and ice hockey games with youth who attend the after-school program in Hartford.

Prior to arriving in Storrs, Cavanaugh spent 18 seasons at Boston College on legendary head coach Jerry York’s coaching staff. During his time at BC, he helped guide the Eagles to four national titles (2001, 2008, 2010 and 2012) in addition to nine Hockey East Tournament championships, six league regular-season titles and 10 Frozen Four appearances.

During his tenure at Boston College, Cavanaugh was vital in establishing a decade-strong winning culture for the program in the Hockey East. As one of the nation’s premier recruiters, Cavanaugh saw his efforts produce more than 30 National Hockey League players, two Hobey Baker Award recipients (Johnny Gaudreau, 2014; Mike Mottau, 2000), 22 All-Americans and two USA Hockey College Players of the Year (Mottau, 2000 and Nathan Gerbe, 2008) in his 18 seasons - the last nine as associate head coach.

He was named the winner of the 2013 Terry Flanagan Award by the American Hockey Coaches As-sociation (AHCA). The Flanagan Award is given annually to honor an assistant coach’s career body of work in the college game.

In addition to his on-ice achievements, Cavanaugh was highly involved in the greater Boston com-munity. He spearheaded an academic mentoring program with St. Columbkille Partnership School, a local elementary school where 19 different languages are spoken and many students are receiving financial support. Boston College players are matched with fifth graders for academic mentoring that often turns into life mentoring. Cavanaugh also founded and led the coordination of the An-nual BC Race to Educate, a 5k road race and 1k kid’s fun run held in the spring. The race has raised over $130,000 in just two years for St. Columbkille’s that has been put toward financial aid, a music program and staffing at the school.

A 1990 graduate of Bowdoin College, Cavanaugh was a three-year ice hockey letterman for the Polar Bears. He served as team captain in 1989-90. Cavanaugh also captained and played wide receiver on the school’s football team. He is a graduate of North Andover High School, where he played hockey.

Upon his graduation from Bowdoin, Cavanaugh spent one year in London serving as player/coach of the Richmond Ice Hockey Club. He returned to the United States and was the assistant hockey coach at the Belmont Hill School for the 1991-92 season. From there, he joined Jerry York’s staff at Bowling Green from 1992-93. While at BGSU, Cavanaugh earned a master’s degree in sports management.

Prior to coming to Boston College in 1995-96, Cavanaugh spent two years as an assistant coach at Dartmouth College (1993-95). He was promoted to associate head coach at BC prior to the 2004-05 season.
