Inside BU’s Rising Star Tynan Lawrence, the Tense Malhotra-Desnoyers Rivalry, and Secret Olympic Prospects for 2026

What should we make of Tynan Lawrence’s lack of production so far at BU? — Aavcocup A. and John M.
This was the most-requested question and feels like the big one to start with, and the topic du jour in this draft class.
First, let’s establish the context. Here are his official NCAAA numbers so far: 5 GP, 0 G, 0 A, 5 SOG, -2, 15:55 ATOI. According to InStat (the scouting service we use, but not an official record holder), he also has 11 shot attempts, two hits, two executed passes to the slot, has won 49 percent of his draws and is averaging nearly two and a half minutes per game on the power play. His opponents in those five games have been Harvard, UMass (x2) and UMass-Lowell (x2), who rank 20th, 28th and 49th, respectively, in NPI (the NCAA’s new index for selecting and seeding the national tournament). He’s also an August 2008 birthday and the second-youngest player currently playing in college hockey to fellow second-semester newcomer Oscar Hemming (they were born 10 days apart).
