NHL players who want to complete their college degrees will have a smoother pathway thanks to an agreement announced Wednesday between their union and Boston College. The deal would ease the way for current and former players to graduate from BC's Woods College of Advancing Studies. It's an arm of the university that offers flexible routes to certificates and degrees for non-traditional students. Among its alums is NHL Players Association executive director Marty Walsh. Woods College Dean David Goodman said the agreement will make it easier for players to transfer credits and avoid other bumps that made it difficult to go back to school.
