Quote from: Al DeFlorioAnother two-time All-American (1969-70 and 1970-71) who should be in the ECAC top 50 is Clarkson goalie Bruce Bullock.
Which causes me to repost the ECAC finals cartoon from 1970.

No Cornellians, but here's the ninth list. Some that some of us can remember.:-)

Fusco was a truly great player.  And the "Fusco.... SUCKS!" cheer was one of the most fun to do.  :)

Yurk was terrific, but Bullock was every bit as good.

Ned Harkness said Dan Lodboa was the best player he'd ever coached. It's an amazing shame that Lodboa did not make the list.::wtf::

This really does suck.  But Pattison, Bullock, and Wakabayashi are very deserving.  I'm sure I saw Johnston play, but have no recollection whatsoever.

After some cutting. pasting and parsing, here's a spread sheet listing of the 50 players, along with position, school, years and decade (based on last year of play).  Unfortunately, I couldn't attach an Excel file, only a pdf.  Cornell and Clarkson lead with seven players each, followed by Harvard and BU.  The '70s was the dominant decade, the '00s the was least prolific.  Players by position was pretty much what you'd expect.

Actually it was a little light on goalies.  2 more goalies and 2 fewer forwards would have been more proportional.
