Just a note on the Harvard shorthanded hat-trick thread...
>From the ECAC's press release of 12/19/88: "Young established two new

I was there! (and I think it was all in one period, not split up). If I
remember correctly, each goal was a steal of a misplayed puck by the left
point man, leading to a one-on-zero rush down the ice to score. Needless
to say, the crowd was roaring, and the Dartmouth team was thoroughly
demoralized (final score was something like 10-0). It was the likes of
Bourbeau, MacDonald, Young, Ciavaglia [watch him in the olympics!],
Vukonich, Donato, Melrose, Roy, and Hughes that permanently hooked me on
hockey that year, including a memorable trip to St. Paul....
