- Through five games this season, forward Cam Lund (4-0-4) leads the Huskies in goals with four, followed by Jack Williams (2-4-6) and Dylan Hryckowian (2-3-5) with two apiece. In total, seven Huskies have netted a score this season.
- Defenseman Vinny Borgesi (1-5-6) leads Northeastern in assists this year with five, followed by Willams with four and Hryckowian with three. Ten Huskies have tallied an assist this season.
- Williams and Borgesi currently lead Northeastern's roster with six points each, followed by five from Hryckowian and four from Lund and Cristophe Tellier (1-3-4). In total, twelve Huskies have registered a point this season.
- In net, the Huskies have looked to sophomore Cameron Whitehead. In five starts this season, Whitehead has led the Huskies to a 1-3-1 record alongside a 2.77 goals against average and a .914 save percentage.

Since the 2021-22 season, Providence has earned a 4-2-2 record over the Huskies and are currently riding a six-game unbeaten streak, dating back to a 2-1 Friars win in Boston on Oct. 15, 2022. In that span, the Friars are 1-1-2 at home and 3-1-0 when facing the Huskies at Matthews Arena.

Leaman Hits Milestone
Head Coach Nate Leaman earned his 249th career victory at Providence on Nov. 11, 2023, passing Lou Lamoriello as the program's winningest head coach all-time.
