FROZEN FENWAY
Frozen Fenway was a college ice hockey double-header played on Friday, January 8, 2010, at Fenway Park, in Boston, Massachusetts. Played on the same rink used for the 2010 NHL Winter Classic one week earlier between National Hockey League rivals the Boston Bruins and the Philadelphia Flyers, it featured Hockey East teams. The first game was played by rival women's ice hockey teams the UNH Wildcats and the Northeastern Huskies, and was followed by the nightcap between men's ice hockey arch-rivals Boston University and Boston College. The game was sponsored by Sun Life Financial.

BU-BC RIVALRY
Fenway Park in Boston, MA, home of the MLB Boston Red Sox, was chosen as the host site for the third installment of the NHL Winter Classic, to be played on Friday, January 1, 2010. Once this plan was set, the groundwork was layed for Hockey East to participate in the history-making. The idea to showcase the Boston University and Boston College rivalry seemed a natural decision for the Hockey East Association. The two teams are the most recent winners of the NCAA Men's Ice Hockey Championships, with BC having won in 2008 and BU in 2009. The rivalry between the two teams, known as The Green Line Rivalry, or more recently, The Battle of Comm Ave, is considered one of the top rivalries in college sports and first among college hockey rivalries, with Sports Illustrated declaring it "the greatest rivalry in all of sports" in 2005. It also features the two winningest active head coaches in college hockey, Jerry York at BC and Jack Parker at BU. The two teams play each other three times each regular season in Hockey East, and frequently meet in the annual Beanpot Tournament as well as the Hockey East and NCAA postseason tournaments.
