Renck: Boston Buckberger’s bloody pinkie puts finger on why DU hockey is so good

Boston Buckberger is not the first, but rather the last Pio to bleed Crimson Red. DU has won a record 11 national championships. And it is easy to put your finger on why.

The Denver Post
David Carle at @[email protected] has won three titles in five years. Still has a baby face and is already a legend for #Pios. And credit his staff as well. Pios culture and teaching is elite.
#Pios win NCAA record 11th National Championship. It is coach David Carle’s third. No team is more clutch than @[email protected]. Goalie Johnny Hicks finished season 16-0-1. Magical ending
#Pios lead 2-1 with 1:50 left and #Badgers have empty net. White-knuckle time
On its seventh shot on goal with 12:29 left in game, @[email protected] ties score at 1. A one-timer ricochets off pads and rebound slammed in. And now the #Pios are playing with hair on fire

Terrific story by @cmasisak22 on the #Pios’ undefeated goalie

#Pios won’t flinch. @[email protected] ties it at 3. There is 2 minutes left
#Pios fail to score on power play but capitalize moments after on Ashcroft goal with a defender blocking goalie’s view. It’s tied at 2-all early in second
