With all the woofing on the list about Americans vs. Canadians in college
hockey, I think it would be instructive to see how the rosters played out
back then. I know from the Beanpot days of the late 60's that BC fans made
a very big deal about "all the Canadians" at BU and Cornell. If my memory
serves me right, there was definitely a larger presence from north of the
border back then, mostly because, IMHO, that was were the players were.

For me, just to recall the old curmudgeons who reffed back in the dark
ages, guys like Bobby Barry, Jack Garrity and, of course, Gilles Threadgold.
