      Not 100% sure, but I think Snively65 was talking about the opening goal at the previous arena.

      Unless, of course, Tommy Nolan's dad/uncle was playing for Coach Bjorkman 30 or so years earlier!!

      Either way, I would have been a preschooler back then, and my folks didn't take me to the game.

      Still P.O.'ed at them both, all these years later, for such a careless oversight …

      Snives was there, and he'll eventually buckle and give us all the answer ...

        Yup, I asked who scored the first UNH goal in Snively, on 13 February 1965, almost 30 years before Tommy Nolan (or someone) got the inaugural goal (or game winner) at the Whitt. I think that sonar or ATW will get this one.

        Could be a long off-season of sports trivia questions, eh, Chuck?

          First goal at the Whitt was from Mowers, with Nolan scoring the game winner in OT. No idea what happened in the opener at Snively...

              I cheated and looked it up.

              By Jeflf Hatch
              UNH students and faculty were
              finally able to see their hockey
              team play last Saturday in the
              beautiful new Whoops Snively Arena.
              Playing an aggressive hard
              skating game the Blue sextet held
              a slim lead until the final minutes
              of the third period when a
              deflected Norwich shot tied the
              game 3-3. The Cadets went on to
              win in overtime.

              Page 11 has a picture of Bjorkman handing the puck to the player.

                Looking that way, isn't it, Snives? I can't even whine about the lack of goalie recruits anymore …

                  Now this is interesting.



                  And to answer the follow up question, the NCAA is voting next month on a "one time transfer" rule that would allow players to transfer without sitting out a year.

                  If so, it answers my biggest question, from March

                  So, I would think either Margel or Cafarelli but probably not both are brought in next year. There are several questions, but projecting Richels to get a top 6 role from HS is a big assumption and probably doesn't work. But he would fit there by profile, keeping Sato on the third line where he is more effective given his limited offensive skills.
                  If Ward is eligible right away, and if there is hockey, then that resolves the issue right there. One of Margel or Cafarelli is deferred to 2021. Not a bad top 6.

                        Really hoping that we get to see college hockey this coming year, even if just for a conference schedule beginning in January.

                            Woops (or should that be Whoops), my bad, perused the question a little too quickly. Snively was a great barn, but the opening was well before my time.
