Although I don't remember reading or hearing anything about it, there was a College Hockey Centennial All-Time Favorites Poll sponsored by ONE XCEL and the American Hockey Coaches Association. To commemorate 100 years of college hockey, fans, coaches, writers and experts were asked to vote in numerious catergories. The Boston Sunday Globe listed the results of the voting in today's paper. All catergories were broken into East and West. The only possible exception is Greatest Teams, but I think the paper may have overlooked the list for the West. The catergories and results are: GREATEST TEAMS EAST ? Cornell, 1969-70 Maine, 1992-93 RPI, 1984-85 WEST ?? FAVORITE TEAMS EAST Cornell, 1969-70 WEST North Dakota, 1986-87 FAVORITE PLAYERS EAST Paul Kariya, Maine WEST Keith Magnuson, Denver FAVORITE COACHES EAST Jack Parker, Boston University WEST Ron Mason, Michigan State, Bowling Green, Lake Superior PLAYERS OF THE DECADES EAST 1980's and 1990's: Paul Kariya, Maine 1960's and 1970's: Ken Dryden, Cornell 1950's and earlier: Bill Cleary, Harvard WEST 1980's and 1990's: Tony Hrkac, North Dakota 1960's and 1970's: Tom Ross, Michigan State 1950's and earlier: John Mayasich, Minnesota COACHES OF THE DECADES EAST 1980's and 1990's: Jack Parker, Boston University 1960's and 1970's: Ned Harkness, RPI and Cornell 1950's and earlier: Eddie Jeremiah, Dartmouth WEST 1980's and 1990's: Ron Mason, Michigan State 1960's and 1970's: Maurry Armstrong, Denver 1950's and earlier: Vic Heyliger, Michigan 26 PLAYER ALL-TIME TEAMS EAST Goalies: Ken Dryden, Cornell, 1968-69 Daren Puppa, RPI, 1984-85 Chris Terreri, Providence, 1985-86 Defensemen: Ed (Butch) Songin, Boston College, 1949-50 Tom (Red) Martin, Boston College, 1960-61 Dan Loboda, Cornell, 1969-70 Vic Stanfield, Boston University, 1974-75 Ron Wilson, Providence, 1976-77 Jack O'Callahan, Boston University, 1978-79 Mark Fusco, Harvard, 1982-83 Brian Leetch, Boston College, 1986-87 Chris Imes, Maine, 1994-95 Forwards: Bill Riley, Dartmouth, 1948-49 Jack Garrity, Boston University, 1950-51 Bill Cleary, Harvard, 1954-55 Bob Marquis, Boston University, 1959-60 Gene Kinasewich, Harvard, 1963-64 Joe Cavanagh, Harvard, 1970-71 Rick Meagher, Boston University, 1976-77 Dave Taylor, Clarkson, 1976-77 Joe Mullen, Boston College, 1978-79 Adam Oates, RPI, 1984-85 Scott Fusco, Harvard, 1985-86 Joe Nieuwendyk, Cornell, 1986-87 Lane MacDonald, Harvard, 1988-89 Paul Kariya, Maine, 1993-94 Coaching Staff: Jack Parker, Boston University Ned Harkness, RPI and Cornell Jack Kelley, Boston University Eddie Jeremiah, Dartmouth John (Snooks) Kelley, Boston College WEST Goalies: Lorne Howes, Michigan, 1956-57 Tony Esposito, Michigan Tech, 1966-67 Robb Stauber, Minnesota, 1988-89 Defensemen: Ken Yackel, Minnesota, 1955-56 Bill Steenson, North Dakota, 1958-59 Lou Nanne, Minnesota, 1962-63 Keith Magnuson, Denver, 1968-69 Craig Norwich, Wisconsin, 1976-77 Ken Morrow, Bowling Green, 1978-79 Chris Chelios, Wisconsin, 1982-83 Tom Kurvers, Denver, 1983-84 Norm Maciver, Minnesota-Duluth, 1985-86 Forwards: John Matchefts, Michigan, 1952-53 John Mayasich, Minnesota, 1954-55 Bill (Red) Hay, Colorado College, 1957-58 Reg Morelli, North Dakota, 1959-60 Red Berenson, Michigan, 1961-62 Bill Masterton, Denver, 1961-62 Lou Angotti, Michigan Tech, 1961-62 Tom Ross, Michigan State, 1975-76 Mike Eaves, Wisconsin, 1977-78 Mark Johnson, Wisconsin, 1978-79 Neal Broten, Minnesota, 1980-81 Brett Hul, Minnesota-Duluth, 1985-86 Tony Hrkac, North Dakota, 1986-87 Greg Johnson, North Dakota, 1992-93 Coaching Staff: Ron Mason, Michigan State, Bowling Green, Lake Superior Murray Armstrong, Denver John MacInnes, Michigan Tech Bob Johnson, Wisconsin Vic Heyliger, Michigan BEST UNIFORMS EAST 1 Boston College 2 Harvard UMass Lowell WEST 1 North Dakota 2 Lake Superior 3 Michigan BEST NICKNAMES EAST 1 Vermont Catamounts 2 Clarkson Golden Knights 3 UMass Lowell River Hawks WEST 1 North Dakota Fighting Souix 2 Alask Fairbanks Nanooks 3 Minnesota Golden Gophers BEST ARENAS EAST 1 Conte Forum, Boston College 2 Gutterson Field House, Vermont Thompson Arena, Dartmouth WEST 1 Mariucci Arena, Minnesota 2 Dane County Coliseum, Wisconson 3 Ralph Engelstad Arena, North Dakota TOUGHEST ARENAS TO VISIT EAST 1 Walker Arena, Clarkson (no longer used) 2 Gutterson Field House, Vermont 3 Lynah Rink, Cornell WEST 1 Dane County Coliseum, Wisconsin 2 Munn Arena, Michigan State 3 Yost Arena, Michigan TOUGHEST ROAD TRIP EAST 1 Clarkson-St. Lawrence 2 Maine 3 Cornell-Colgate WEST 1 Alaska Anchorage Alaska Fairbanks 3 Michigan Tech 3 Michigan State Sean Pickett E-mail: [log in to unmask] Go Terriers 1995 NCAA, Hockey East and Beanpot Champions BU Hockey: http://www.tiac.net/users/spickett/hockey.html The Bedford Flag: http://www.tiac.net/users/spickett/flag.html But I Digress: http://www.tiac.net/users/spickett/bid.html HOCKEY-L is for discussion of college ice hockey; send information to [log in to unmask], The College Hockey Information List.
