Macklin Celebrini drops F-bomb in post-game interview after BU's victory over rivals Boston College 

In a thrilling Beanpot opener at TD Garden, the much-anticipated clash between Boston University and Boston College took an unexpected turn as 17-year-old phenom Macklin Celebrini stole the spotlight.

However, in Monday night's faceoff, Celebrini left an indelible mark, netting two early goals within the first six minutes of the game. His first goal showcased the finesse in his release, expertly using a defenseman as a screen to beat Canadiens draft pick Jacob Fowler. The second goal demonstrated the sheer power of Celebrini's one-timer on BU's power play, set up by Lane Hutson.

Following the 4-3 victory over their rivals, Macklin Celebrini, tied for the NCAA lead with 21 goals this season, expressed his satisfaction in a post-game interview. Unfiltered and passionate, he said:

"We knew what we needed to do tonight, and I thought us as a whole, we'd f***ing bounce back."

BU's energizing show didn't just clinch their place in the Beanpot final. The unforgettable scene after the game showed the pure joy of winning. In the excitement, the promising player blurted out a misstep that drew in the audience. It gave an unexpected spin to an already fiery competition.
