Montgomery, a center from Montreal, scored 301 career points on 103 goals and 198 assists. He capped his career with three goals in 4 minutes, 35 seconds of the third period of Maine's national title victory against Lake Superior State. "We have watched Jim Montgomery play for the last four years," said Rod Caron, vice president and general manager of the Blues. "And we liked what we saw. We think he has tremendous talent and he makes his wingers better players." Terms of his contract were not released. The Blues have the rights to three other Maine forwards: Wayne Conlan, Dave LaCouture and Patrice Tardif. <<End quoted material>> Craig Cheslog Bowdoin College Sports Information Intern 1993 ECAC EAST MEN'S ICE HOCKEY CHAMPIONS
