It really is a lot of fun hanging around the RPI threads. What an eclectic group we are!:D

Chase Polacek was on Slap Schotts yesterday (as part of Big Board Sports).

For those who don't check the ohter threads-RB posted a wonderful 8 minute clip of RPI hockey from 1983-84 in the Alumni thread. Brings back lots of memories for those of us who were there. Great stuff except for having to watch Jon Casey again(but at least it showed a couple of our goals against him and not the myriad of saves he made against us).

I wondered if all of your comments about Casey were wrong, since he seemed quite beatable there. :)

Ralph-you just had to be there. I have my scoresheets up in the mountain house but we had more than 25 quality shots on Casey in the 2 nights. The box scores will show that we outshot them by a wide margin but do not really reflect the quality. I still feel the 1984 team was more potent than the 1985 team offensively-Dallman made a big difference. Defensively the 1985 team was far more confident and you never felt we were in trouble in our own end. But the 1984 team just plain over powered you. We allowed a few too many goals against North Dakota and a couple were real soft. But if not for Casey in net we would have scored 8 or more each night. He made saves and bent his body in ways that a human just should not be able to do. I really wish someone could post a tape of those 2 games. Still the best goaltending performance I have ever seen.

Somehow I doubt that. I hope you made him pick up the tab.

Actually he did at the Recovery Room and I was just with him at the US team morning skate and practice. JDA was blazing around the field house again. Good to see. Seems US team is only carrying two goaltenders, Campbell and kid from Cornell.

We pushed the WaP podcast off until Saturday this week due to the lull in college hockey action, not to mention we wanted to be sure we were able to get the guest that we have arranged for this week...

We go live at 4pm tomorrow afternoon. Check it out, you won't be disappointed.

You should have seen this performance !

1979-1980 Hill-Murray Hockey

For the first time in school history, Hill-Murray had a perfect regular season and reached the championship game of a state high school league tournament. For the fifth time in six years, however, they lost to Grand Rapids in the state tournament. The Pioneers outshot the Indians 32-16, but scored only once against future North Stars goalie Jon Casey.
After playing in only two one-goal games all season, Hill-Murray needed two overtimes to dispatch White Bear Mariner to earn its sixth consecutive state tournament berth. Dan Dolan scored the winning goal, which was the first multiple-overtime win in school history. A St. Paul city conference rule stipulated that a game would end any time a team amassed a ten goal lead after two periods. Hill-Murray played in five of these shortened games, but still set a school record with 195 goals scored for the season, which has been surpassed only twice, by the 1983 and 2008 championship teams.

In all, 10 players on the 1980 team would go on to play D1 college hockey.
Dan Dolan is RPI's Bo Dolan's father
