>A faculty member recently told me that Adam Oates (of the St. Louis Blues)
>played college hockey for RPI.  Is this true?  And when?  Just curious.
 
 Yes it's True.  Oates played for RPI from the 81-82 season to the 84-85
 season.  In his Senior year RPI won the NCAA National Championship.
 
 FYI-Also on that championship team were Buffalo goalie Darren Pupa
     and Bruins forward John Carter.
