1977: Boston University won their fourth straight ECAC title (and fifth in six years) as they defeated New Hampshire, 8-6, to cap off a wild championship weekend that saw 55 goals scored in four games.
The Wildcats struck just 28 seconds into the game when Bob Gould beat Terrier netminder Jim Craig. After one period it was 4-3 for New Hampshire with the difference being Jack O’Callahan’s own goal. In the second the Wildcats outshot the Terriers 21-7 and hit 5 or 6 posts, but Craig only allowed only 2 goals, while UNH’s goalie Mark Evans let in 3 goals on just 7 shots. In the third BU scored the only two goals to secure the win and championship.
Mike Eruzione and Matt Marden each scored twice while Dave Silk, Gary Fay, Bill O’Neill and John Melanson each scored once. Eruzione (2-2-4) and Rick Meagher (0-4-4) topped the scoring sheet with 4 points each, while Craig made 36 saves for the win.
