late in the second period, BU was up 3-0 when suddenly the fire alarm at Merrimack college's Lawler Arena started going off.
Eventually, the game was able to resume and Boston University took a 3-0 lead into the final intermission.
BU's twitter account joked that it must have been a Merrimack fan that pulled the alarm since their team was down big to the Hockey East titan.
Merrimack is currently 9th in the NCAA's Hockey East conference with a 2-4-1 record. BU leads the conference with 5-1-1 record and they look to extend their lead with another victory tonight.
