BOSTON —\u00a0<\/strong>A year ago, Northeastern earned its 30-year drought in the Beanpot behind an effort by a number of the greatest players in the program’s history, most notably Hobey Baker Award winner Adam Gaudette, who netted a championship game hat trick.<\/p>\n

On Monday, the Huskies punched their ticket to advance to the finals and have a chance to go back-to-back for just the second time, the other being 1984 and ’85. And this win came off the stick of someone who could be the next generation of Northeastern greats.<\/p>\n

Tyler Madden took a long outlet pass while splitting defensemen and fired a low shot that squeaked through Boston University netminder Jake Oettinger just 51 seconds into overtime as Northeastern advanced, 2-1.<\/p>\n

Northeastern will face Boston College in next Monday’s championship game.<\/p>\n
