Any way to authenticate it ahead of time?

The description acknowledges that he cannot say for certain it's the game puck from that game.

Hmmm. A bit of amateur sleuthing: In 1964 Tyer Rubber company became Converse and the puck logo should reflect that if it is from 1967 (maybe they got a deal on old pucks?). The puck logo on eBay says "Tyer".
The description states: "Found in the basement of a deceased Cornell professor in Ithaca".
I would contact the seller (who appears to be a professional dealer) and ask for the name of the professor.

Andover Answers says they were bought in 1961, which would seem to make it even less likely. But I did ask the seller some questions.

The tape has that patina of authenticity, looking like a used civil war bandage.
Look at the date, BTW: Most years, that's the week leading up to the ECAC title game. Now there's 3-4 more weeks left in the season.

In this collection of pucks [llcgunner.wixsite.com] , the Tyer name persists well into the 1970's.Jim Hyla

Me too. The Art Ross Tyer, by Converse, went later, but the Tyer Rubber Company was last in the 62-64 section.
In my opinion, that makes the 67 Championship much less likely to be legit. I don't know that the NCAA, or Syracuse Stars, would be using 3 year old pucks.
We'll probably never know.
I don't know that I'm going to spring a couple of hundred bucks for it.
