Re: RPI Offseason Part II: Mindless Drivel.
I think that was the game Gerry (bozo) Beauclair big defenseman skated thru center ice and unleashed a blast from outside the blue line that totally beat the BU goalie. Later once the game was already decided he was pummeling a BU forward so bad Parker or a BU coach was trying to get over the boards to stop it. At that time they let them fight for a while. Paired with Mike Prpich another d with a good shot.That was a good read on 60/70's ecac hockey, the background on Canadian players in college hockey (with out shout out to RPI/Ned Harkness), and in particular, the BU/Leon Abbott/Jack Parker story. I saw that RPI Christmas Tournament 8-2 win over BU that year... which turned out to be Parker's first loss as coach of BU. Don Cutts was in goal... that was one of the first games I saw as a freshman.
I wonder if any of our other long-time posters were at that game?
