Orpik points in final Beanpot chapter

Andrew Orpik (+1, 5 SOG) picked up an assist in his final Beanpot appearance as Boston College edged Harvard, 4-3. Trailing 3-2 in the middle period, the senior forward got the puck to Kyle Kucharski for a wraparound feed that resulted in a Ben Smith goal. The third-place game remained tied until Benn Ferriero's winner with just :41.3 to play. Orpik's assist was his 13th point of the season, and second in eight career Beanpot games. Junior defenseman Alex Biega (3 SOG) was -2 for the Crimson in defeat.
