The Blog conducted an anonymous player survey for the BU men’s and women’s hockey teams ahead of the 2025-2026 season.
We asked them a series of questions, from their favorite dining spot on campus to which of their teammates they think would make the best general manager. All answers were anonymous and are divided into three sections: questions that apply to both teams, to the men’s team only, and to the women’s team only.
Let’s dive in.
