Yale-BU 1978

Yale-BU 1978

Yale's last win over BU at Ingalls before this year was 1978

http://rinkrap1.blogspot.com/2015/12/the-new-haven-miracle.html

.......when WAS the last time Yale beat BU at the Whale? A lengthy shuffle through the record book is required, but there it is: February 18, 1978. 38 seasons ago, the dark ages of no facemasks and steel-post skates. An Internet search reveals Peter Gammons calling Yale’s 7-5 win “college hockey’s upset of the decade” in Sports Illustrated. This demanded a closer look. What we found was a moment in time carved permanently into the memories of participants from both Red and Blue: Rhodes Scholars, 1980 Miracle Men and a coaching icon. It was also the finest hour for late coach Tim Taylor of Yale, colored by the backstory of a hockey friendship for the ages.

That story deserves it's own thread here, because it was written so well. Only thing lacking is commentary by Allain for obvious reasons, he sat out the game.

I am fairly sure that the NCAA required facemasks at the time.

Re: Yale-BU 1978

I am fairly sure that the NCAA required facemasks at the time.

I don't get many chances to correct someone as well informed as Ralph, but I was at Yale then (and what a game it was!) and I remember that only a few wore full facemasks. So I went to check my recollection -- "The NCAA started recommending the use of face shields at the start of the 1978-79 season. Eastern teams started wearing the face shields in 1979, and the NCAA required their use by all teams at the start of the 1980-81 season."

Re: Yale-BU 1978

Good solid game by Ryan Hitchcock against Canada today. He most likely saved a Canadian goal by physically taking out a Canadian forward who had a VERY open look at the net late in the game. Two shots on goal and zero in the +/- column.

Re: Yale-BU 1978

Yale sneaks out of Amherst with an OTW. They started out playing well and slowly allowed UMass back into the game. Hayden saves the bacon! Nice to see him stepping up. Snively has been setting Hayden up well and he is actually starting to show some net front presence. Alot of crazy lines tonight with being T Hart, Pietrowski and Gaus, very young, but quite enthusiastic. Doherty still out, Wilson and Cooper had great games. First time at the Mullin Center and i must say that it is an impressive rink, very AHL like, they just need a center score/video board to make it perfect.

I missed the game last night, I think it was on the UMass website. That's what happens when Yale hasn't played in a while (except for McGill) I get out of the habit. Plus Tuesday games are so unusual. I'm still wondering whether this team has enough firepower to compete in March.

The firepower was in evidence in spurts last night, they outshot UMass 38-18. The UMass goalie, a third stringer from what someone told me, had a very good game. It looks like Snively is settling in to becoming the set up man for his line and some of his passes are incredible, sometimes even taking his line mates by surprise. Remember they were still without Doherty and Hitchcock last night as well.

Looking forward to seeing Yale live and in person this weekend. I'm glad they have the 8:00 P.M. game on Friday. My wife usually works until 5:30 or 6:00. Gila River Arena is about 20 miles or so from my house. Hoping for two great games this weekend.

Just checked the box score zero SOG for Snively last night.

Trying to find some sort of streaming alternative to watch the A State games. Directv does not carry the PAC12 network in my area. If you go to the A State website there is a link to the web stream, but you have to be using a participating cable provider.

I don't think Directv carries the PAC-12 network, no matter where you live.

Same here. Makes me wonder what UConn was thinking when they built Gampel. That banner honoring Calipari is embarrassing, though, even as a New Englander. C'mon.

UMass is sadly disappointing. It can do so much better. If only the people of western Mass could secede from Beacon Hill.
