Name that game...

cleaning out a closet the other day, and I came across this old photo of a game against Providence.  Kind of fitting, as that was the last game of this past season.  Bonus points if you can name the specific game...

Quote from: TrotskyI assume that is "The Game."

I don't think so.  There's a picture I found online and the Providence goalie in "The Game" was wearing #29.

Maybe the 1980 ECAC semi-final at the Garden?

Not the '79 game at Lynah. Providence's goalie in that game was Bill Milner, who wore #29.

And not the 1980 semifinal at Boston Garden. Providence's goalie there was Scott Fiske, who wore #31.

The goalie in this picture looks like Mario Proulx, who wore #30, so this is most likely the ECAC final from the 1980-81 season. Tredway's linemates at that time were Roy Kerling (20) and Bill Cole (6), so that's also consistent.

You, Sir, are correct! 1981 ECAC Final, in the Gahden.

Those Friars' sweaters are pretty.

At the time a rare finals loss.  They have become more common.
