Working only from memory here, I believe that in those days Michigan offered hockey scholarships, while most other schools did not.  This helped them to lure some of the Eveleth players (including goalie Willard Ikola) away from Minnesota in the '50s.

Well, now that Denver's done the repeat I got curious and looked at the roster of past champions.
Wow. In the first ten years of the tournament, 1948-57, Michigan was in the final 7 times and won
6. No other team has ever come close to that sort of dominance. Does anyone know, off the top of
his head, (a) who was the coach in those years and (b) which players went on to good careers in
the NHL?

cheers,

Henry
