Yup, Adam Oates had a great career at Rensselaer from 82 to 85.  He
was a member of the NCAA championship team of 85 after which he and a
number of other players were drafted by NHL teams.  Oates was one of
the biggest reasons John Carter (of the Bruins now, then at RPI) had
such a phenomenal season in 85.
