I don't know whether the second penalty did come as you suggested, but
he did receive a double minor on that play - for high-sticking and
tripping, at 8:28 of the 2nd.  Cornell's Dave Shippel then took a
minor for hitting from behind at 9:19, and RPI scored (as you say
below) with 17 seconds left on the 5x3 to make it 5-3 Engineers.

Right...the teams swapped goals in the first minute and a half of the
third to make it 6-4 RPI, then Cornell cut it to 6-5 at 6:42, and then
they tied it up with 2:04 left.
 
RPI outshot Cornell for the game 58-33...Dadswell stopped 52 for the
Big Red.
 
You should be amazed that I had the details right here at hand...I
know I am.  And it was over 7 years ago.

How about Zamboni-driving band members?
