Important note from that article, the Saturday game starts at 5 ET.
QuoteCournoyer, who was named to the watch list for the Mike Richter Award on Jan. 14, has started all 15 of his appearances this season and has an 11-4-0 record with a 1.82 goals-against average and .925 save percentage. Among Division I goaltenders with at least 10 games played, Cournoyer ranks fifth in goals-against average and 14th in save percentage. His figures rank third and sixth, respectively, among freshmen goaltenders with 10-plus appearances.
It blows me away how GAA and save percentages are these days. Darren Eliot was
All-American in 1983 with 3.74 / .892.
Hell yeah, more weekly awards. Well deserved, the both of them.
Cournoyer might be good. Who knew? ;)

Eliot was probably wearing blockers he borrowed from cricketers.

Of course back in out undergrad days from the early 80's the average game score was probably around 6-5

I will always remember our 10-9 double OT loss to UNH in the 1977 ECAC semifinals at the Boston Garden. The fans from the other three schools were all rooting against us. It was a terrible feeling when UNH scored the winning goal.
If only we had a competent goalie in those years of the Bertrand era.
There were 103 goals scored in the 8 games that year in the ECAC playoffs (the quarterfinals were one game only). BU gave up 13 goals in the semis and finals and still won the title.

And goalies were padded such that a limb had to be moved to make a save.

Plus I've never seen a hilite from that era where the goalie didn't fall down while making a save or giving up a goal.

Those old pads had no padding or protection on the sides. That was pre-butterfly, so mostly stand-up and 2-pad stack saves. Kick save and a beauty!
