For the second straight season, Vancouver Canucks prospect Tom Willander has been named to the All-Hockey East Second Team. The 2023 first-round pick is currently playing for Boston University in the NCAA and was one of four Terriers named a Hockey East All-Stars. The other three are defenceman Cole Hutson, who was named to the first team; Quinn Hutson, who was named to the second team; and Ryan Greene, who made the third team.

This year's All-Hockey East Second Team is stacked with talent. Joining Willander and Hutson are Albin Boija, Guillaume Richard, Joey Muldowney and Hudson Schandor. The league's 11 head coaches vote on the year-end all-star teams. 

Now in his second season, Willander is thriving at Boston University. He has 21 points in 33 games and has helped the Terriers to a 20-12-2 record. Based on reports, this could be Willander's last year in the NCAA, as he is projected to sign a contract with Vancouver once his season is complete. 

Up next for Willander and Boston University will be the year-end Hockey East Tournament. The Terriers will face UMass in the quarterfinals, which is scheduled for March 15. This year's final is set to take place on March 21 from TD Garden in Boston.
