I'm listening to the postgame of the KRDO-AM1240 (CC) broadcast right now
on RealAudio.  They said the GWG was scored by T.J. Tanberg.
 
This is the longest game in NCAA men's hockey history, 129:30.  It smashed
the old record, which was set over 28 years ago:

>                     GWG: Rod (Buzz) Christensen, North Dakota
 
It is still 16:05 short of being the longest college hockey game ever:

KRDO keeps saying that it is the longest game in WCHA & CC history, but I
think they do not realize that it is the longest NCAA men's game ever too.
