Richter got a goal tonight in Harvard's 6-1 thumping of Yale. It happened on the ever rare, score-on-your-own-empty-net-on-a-delayed-penalty play by Yale, and as Richter was the last to touch it, he gets the goal.

Meh, that doesn't really count, IMHO. The goalie has to shoot it for it to be a real goalie goal. Although it is typical of sucks to take something that's a C+ at best and call it an A.

This was discussed tonight at Quinnipiac. Right after QU pulled Bud, Scrivens made a save, and QU then missed a pass back to the blue line, sending the puck to the length of the ice. Obviously far from hitting the net, but we still mentioned the possibility. Little did we know this happened tonight in the ECAC.

It happened in the AHL Wednesday night. [www.dailyherald.com]
Daily Herald
Opponents couldn't find a way to beat the Chicago Wolves for over two weeks, so the Wolves helped one out.
The Wolves were looking for their eighth consecutive win when they went into overtime with the Manitoba Moose on Wednesday.
Four minutes in, a delayed penalty was signaled against the Moose, prompting Wolves goalie Ondrej Pavelec to leave the ice and another skater to come on.
A moment later, Wolves center Steve Martins possessed the puck behind the Moose's net and tried to fire a pass to the point. The puck skidded past its desired target, traveled the entire length of the ice and ended up in the Wolves' empty net for the game-winner.
Billy Gardner, the Wolves' color analyst, summed it up on the telecast by saying, "Absolutely amazing."
Wolves general manager Kevin Cheveldayoff, who has been around the game his whole life, was just as shocked.
"If you're around the game long enough, you see everything," he said.
Because goalie Drew MacIntyre was the last Moose player to touch the puck, he was credited with the goal. It made him the ninth goalie in AHL history to score and the first ever against the Wolves.
"I'll take it," said MacIntyre to the Winnipeg Sun News. "That's the bounce, I guess."
Cheveldayoff and the Wolves weren't as interested in the fun facts.
"It looks great in the papers, but like anything else it's the same amount of points, it's the same amount of feeling whether you win or lose," he said. "It's one of those things; you lost in overtime and you move on."

How many other goalies have gotten the game winning goal in overtime? Pretty cool, even if he didn't shoot it.

That closing view of Brett Sterling (Colorado College) standing in front of the net says it all. Exhaustion, frustration, disgust. He looks as though he is about to break into tears.PAthologicalLynahDavid Harding

The closest I've ever heard was Andrew Allen's game-winner against Harvard, although he didn't exactly shoot it either. I dug up this account from the HOCKEY-L archives:
> With Vermont firmly in the prevent-defense mode [leading 3-2] and Harvard
> set in overdrive, Jonas was pulled from his net with 44 seconds remaining
> in the contest. The Crimson pounded the puck deep in the Vermont zone, but
> an attempted centering pass from behind the net richocheted off the stick
> of Catamount goaltender Andrew Allen and down the length of the ice. The
> open-net tally was Allen's career first and it extended Vermont's lead to
> 4-2.
Allen then proceeded to "vulture" himself the game-winning goal by allowing Harvard to score with one second left, making the final 4-3.

I thought that might be former Harvard player Martins... but I didn't think former as in the 90's!
I was thinking maybe 2000, but didn't get around to checking on hockeydb.
