I believe Steve Christopher asked all of these questions (I know he
asked #1 & 3).
> What is a natural hat-trick?
This is when a player scores three consecutive goals in the game without
anyone else from either side scoring. It used to be THE definition of a
hat trick before it became known as just scoring three goals in a game.
> Have any players scored a shorthanded hat trick?
C.J. Young, formerly of Harvard and now of the US Olympic Team, scored
three goals on the same shorthanded situation (and same shift, I think)
in just over one minute against Dartmouth during the 1988-89 season. I
believe it was a natural shorthanded hat trick.
> Ohio University hockey.
Ohio was a DivI Indep from 1958-71, then a CCHA (inaugural) member from
1971-73. Perhaps some CCHA fans can elaborate on why the school dropped
out of DivI.
