[F]ather Danny skated with the Montreal Canadiens and Winnipeg Jets from 1980-82 ... grandfather Bernie "Boom Boom" Geoffrion is a Hockey Hall of Fame member who won six Stanley Cups with the Montreal Canadiens and who is credited with popularizing the slap shot ... great grandfather, Howie Morenz, is a member of the Hockey Hall of Fame after winning three Stanley Cups with Montreal and becoming one of the seven players in the Canadiens franchise to have his number retired (7).He's from Brentwood, Tenn., and will be playing for Nashville.
The Badgers didn't quite have enough boom-boom for Boston College, although it might be more accurate to note that Boston's players got into the passing lanes and to the loose pucks with a bit more alacrity. Tight game for the first 45 minutes, though.
