First, Tom wrote in his message to hockey3 that the goalie was Mike
McKersie.  Is he any relation to BU goalie J.P. McKersie, from Madison?
 
Here are the records I came across.
 
DivI
Most saves, game:
  82 by Don Martin (BU) vs BC, Dec 1924
  82 by Tim Ready (BC) vs Princeton, Feb 1936
In the "modern" era (1948 and later), the record appears to be:
  78, Dick Greenlaw (RPI) vs BU, 1964-65
 
DivIII is a little more difficult.  The closest thing I could find was the
ECAC East/West/North/South record, which is:
  79, Ed Sanborn (UMass) vs UNH, 2/18/67
However, UNH was in DivI, and both Point and EC are in DivIII.  BTW, looking
at the ECAC North/South records, we find:
  75, John Brayton, Connecticut College vs Iona, 1979
 
So across all of college hockey, according to the information I have
available to me (which is not all that is out there), the college record is
82 as stated above, with Sanborn of UMass holding the "modern" record at
79.  I invite anyone to post if they have further information.
