SMITH TWINS Evan and Mitchell Smith, who have combined for 6 goals and 14 points this winter, are the fi rst twins to skate for the Yale men’s hockey team. The Stouffville, Ontario, brothers have been skating on the same team and line for most of their days in organized hockey. The identical twins, wearing jerseys No. 13 (Evan) and 14 (Mitchell), attended Salisbury School before playing for Dubuque in the USHL. Teammates are challenged to tell the difference between the two, but Evan (6-0, 190) is listed as an inch taller and fi ve pounds heavier than Mitchell. Evan became the fi rst Eli since U.S. Olympian Brian O’Neill in 2012 to score four goals (5 shots) in a game when he helped his team beat Princeton on Feb. 10.

DEFENSE The Elis have an experienced group of blueliners with captain Anthony Walsh, Billy Sweezey, Charlie Curti, Matt Foley, Chandler Lindstrand and Phil Kemp helping two newcomers, Jack St. Ivany and Graham Lillibridge get acclimated to college hockey.

TEAM USA Two Yale defensemen, sophomore Phil Kemp and fi rst-year Jack St. Ivany, helped Team USA take a silver medal at the 2019 IIHF World Junior Cham- pionship in British Columbia over the holiday break. Kemp, a 6-foot-3, 200-pound former U.S. National Team Development Program player who is an Edmonton Oiler draft pick, was on last year’s preliminary Team USA roster but did not make the fi nal cut. This year he not only made the squad, he was a key contributor. St. Ivany, drafted by the last summer, is a 6-foot-2, 195-pound Manhattan Beach, Calif., native who played for Sioux Falls (USHL) last year. This was the fi rst Yale combo on a Team USA WJC roster since 1993. “It was a great experience to be able to represent my country in the tournament. We did not get the result we wanted in losing in the fi nals, but we are still very proud that we were able to earn a silver medal. The memories and friendships made with the players and staff from the team will last a lifetime,” said St. Ivany.

FROSH Keith Allain has fi ve fi rst years (3 F, 2 D) on the 2018-19 roster. Three competed in the United States Hockey League and the other in the United States Premier Hockey League. All four are from the U.S. The Canadian player in the Class of 2022 joined the Bulldogs from the British Columbia Hockey League.

BULLDOG BITES Yale had three defensemen score goals for the fi rst time this season. It was also the fi rst game this year the Elis only got goals from blueliners… The Elis have 14 skaters with multiple goals this year… Senior Charlie Curti could hit the 100-game mark in his Yale career with two games played this weekend. He would become the third member of the senior class to reach triple digits.

BY CLASS Yale has 7 seniors (102 career goals), including 4 forwards, 2 defensemen and 1 . There are 9 juniors (53 goals), 7 sophomores (28), and 5 newcomers (10).

ROSTER BREAKDOWN The Yale roster includes 28 Bulldogs who average 5-11 and 189 pounds. There are 20 players from the USHL, 3 from the BCJHL, 1 from the USPHL, 1 from the NAHL and 3 from New England Prep Schools. There are 17 states and 2 provinces represented, including 5 Massa- chusetts natives, 6 skaters from and 2 each from Connecticut, and Minnesota.

2018-19 YALE MEN’S ICE HOCKEY GAME NOTES

Keith Allain, Malcolm G. Chace Head Coach of Yale Hockey The unprecedented success of the Yale hockey program since Keith Allain ’80 took over in 2006 has elevated the Bulldogs to be recognized among the nation’s perennial powers. The numbers - like six NCAA Tournament appearances (1 national title, 3 regional fi nals) and seven Ivy League Championships in 12 seasons - tell the story of Yale’s ascension in the Allain era.

MOST RECENTLY Allain, Yale’s Malcolm G. Chace Head Coach of Hockey, took a team that was seeded 15th overall in the NCAA Tournament to a 2013 Frozen Four title aft er wins over three top seeds and a No. 2 seed. His Bulldogs won twice in OT (Minnesota, UMass Lowell), came from behind to beat , and beat No. 1 Quinnipiac 4-0 at Pittsburgh for the national title. Prior to that, he led the Blue to the best win percentage (.752) among Division I teams from 2008 to 2011 while coming within a game of two straight Frozen Four appearances. The 2010-11 campaign had been the program’s best, including a school record 28 wins, being voted No. 1 in the national polls (2 straight months) and holding the top PairWise Ranking for most of the year. They won the ECAC Hockey Championship and beat Air Force in OT at the NCAA East Regional as the top seed in the 16-team fi eld before ending the season with Division I’s top off ense, defense and winning percentage. Allain’s 2009-10 team became Yale’s fi rst to take consecutive ECAC Hockey regular-season titles and have 20-win seasons. The Elis, who led the nation in scoring and fi nished with a No. 5 ranking in the polls, capped it off with the greatest win in school history, a 3-2 decision against North Dakota in the NCAA Northeast Regional at Worcester, Mass. Yale fell to eventual national champion Boston College the next day despite scoring seven times. The 2008-09 Tim Taylor Award as ECAC Hockey’s Coach of the Year went to Allain aft er he led Yale to a 24-win season, Yale’s fi rst ECAC Tournament title and a No. 5 ranking. CHN named him national coach of the year.

FOLLOWING LEGENDS The current Yale head coach replaced his mentor, Tim Taylor (1976-2006), whose fi rst team included Allain. Taylor hired Allain to be his assistant from 1982 to 1985 before the prized pupil left the collegiate game to coach and scout in Sweden. He completed his 19th overall year at Yale in 2015-16: four as a student, three as an assistant coach in the early 1980s and 12 as head coach. Only Taylor (337, 28 years) and (278, 27) have more wins at Yale than Allain, who owns a 17-14 ECAC post-season record (6-3 in NCAAs).

FORMER GOALIE The starting goalie on four Bulldog squads, Allain owns the fourth-most (31) wins for a Yale netminder and ranks fourth at the school with 2,337 career saves. He owns four of the top 10 Yale single-game save totals, including 55 stops in a 7-3 loss at Minnesota on Dec. 28, 1978. Allain played two years (1980-82) of professional hockey in Sweden before suff ering a career-ending injury.

NHL Allain, the goalie coach for St. Louis from 1998-2006, helped his players give up the fewest goals in the NHL in 1999-2000, claiming the William M. Jen- nings Trophy. The Blues captured the President’s Trophy for the best regular-season record. His pro hockey coaching experience also includes serving as a scout for the NHL’s in 1997-98 and a four-year (1993-97) stint as an assistant coach for the , where he helped Jim Carey win the 1996 Vezina Trophy.

TEAM USA His extensive international coaching career includes serving as an assistant coach for the United States Olympic Team at the 1992 (Albertville) and 2006 (Torino) Games, while last winter’s South Korea Games were his third Olympics. He was an assistant for teams that played in the 1996 and 2004 World Cup of Hockey. The 1996 team won the event and was enshrined in the USA Hockey Hall of Fame. His involvement with USA Hockey includes guiding the U.S. as head coach at the 2001, 2002 and 2011 IIHF World Junior Championships. He also assisted with the 2005 and 2006 U.S. National Teams at the worlds.

2018-19 YALE MEN’S ICE HOCKEY GAME NOTES

COLLEGE HOCKEY BEGAN AT YALE

A group of Yale student-athletes heading to in January of 1896 began the history of college hockey in America. It’s hard to imagine that two Yale tennis players in the class of 1896 – Malcolm Chace and Arthur Foote – going to Canada for tournaments would lead to hockey coming to the U.S. While on those trips, the two Elis were exposed to a game Canadians began playing aft er seeing British soldiers stationed in Nova Scotia trying it. Chace and Foote formed a Yale hockey team and arranged for its fi rst offi cial games on that trip to Baltimore. Aft er facing off against the Baltimore Athletic Club on Jan. 31 (a 3-2 loss), the Bulldogs made history. The next day they skated to a 2-2 tie with Johns Hop- kins in the fi rst U.S. intercollegiate ice hockey game. Yale quickly became one of the nation’s elite teams, winning intercollegiate titles in 1899, 1900 and 1902. Until 1911, the team played its home games on outdoor rinks, including Lake Whitney on the New Haven – Hamden town line. The school opened an indoor structure at in 1911 with the largest ice surface in the country at that time (190 feet by 90 feet). From 1914 until 1917, the team played its home games at the old on the corner of State and Wall Streets. Yale’s fi rst coach was Frederick Rocque in 1916-17, though it did not have a coach stay for more than one year until Clarence Wanamak- er took over the program in 1921. That year, the Elis returned to the New Haven Arena and remained there until it burned down in 1924. Wanamaker led the Elis for seven years, including an 18-4-1 season in 1923-24 and a 14-1-1 campaign the following year. Aft er 1924, the team played on various outdoor rinks until moving into the “new” New Haven Arena in January 1927. Wanamaker was succeeded as coach in 1928 by Larry Noble ’27, a former captain who led Yale to an incredible 32-2-2 mark. Former Yale goaltender Holcomb York ’17 was coach from 1930 until 1938, an era during which fi ve Olympians played at Yale. Yale joined the Quadrangular League in 1934 along with Dartmouth, Harvard and Princeton (now the Ivy League). The Elis won the fi rst league title in 1934-35, compiling a 6-1 record against three conference foes. Murray Murdoch, the fi rst player ever signed by the NHL’s , took the reins of the program in 1938 and did not let go for 27 seasons. He helped Yale compile a record of 278-236-20, win a Quadrangular League title in 1940, capture a Pentagonal League crown in 1952 (Army was added to the conference in 1941 and the league’s name was changed as a result) and led the Blue to the 1952 NCAA Champion- ship weekend. The home of Yale hockey since 1958 is David S. , which was fully renovated in 2010. Three years aft er moving into its current home, the Elis joined the Eastern College Athletic Conference (now ECAC Hockey) in 1961 while still competing in the Ivy League. Some of the greatest skaters in Yale history played for Murdoch (photo), including scorers like Ted Shay ’52, Wally Kilrea ’54 and Jack Morrison ’67 (1968 Olympian) and outstanding Gerry Jones ’59 (Yale’s fi rst All-American in 1959) and George Scherer ’56. Tim Taylor signed on in 1976 for a 30-year run as head coach that brought much success to the program. In Taylor’s fi rst game, Yale defeated Pennsylvania for the school’s fi rst offi cial Ivy win in more than two years. Taylor, head coach of the 1994 U.S. Olympic Team, went on to lead the Elis to an ECAC title along with six Ivy crowns and a trip to the 1998 NCAA Tournament. He surpassed Murdoch for the most wins in school history (337-433-55, 28 seasons) and raised the visibility of a program that had fi ve wins combined in its two seasons before his arrival. Five Hobey Baker Memorial Award fi nalists played for Taylor: Bob Brooke ’84, Mark Kaufmann’93, Ray Giroux ’98, Jeff Hamilton ’01 (twice) and Chris Higgins ’05. Today, Yale men’s ice hockey is a New England institution with national prominence. The 2008-09, 2009-10 and 2010-11 squads compiled Division I’s top winning percentage over that span, and then Yale soared to the top in 2012-13. Under head coach Keith Allain ’80, Yale won the national championship with a 2013 Frozen Four win over No. 1 Quinnipiac in the title game at Pittsburgh before more than 18,000 fans and an ESPN TV audience. That 22-12-3 squad beat three No. 1 seeds out of the four straight NCAA wins, including West Regional conquests of Minnesota and North Dakota. Andrew Miller ‘13 captained the 2012-13 Bulldogs, scored in OT against UMass-Lowell in the national semifi nal and earned Frozen Four MVP honors before fi nishing with Yale’s career assist record and being named an All-American. Allain, a former Yale goalie, has led the Elis to two ECAC regular-season championships, two conference tournament titles, six Ivy League crowns and fi ve NCAA tournaments (three regional fi nals). In 1998, just over a century aft er he laced up his skates for Yale, Malcolm G. Chace was memorialized when the head coaching job was named in his honor. The coaching position is funded by a gift from his grandson, Malcolm G. Chace ’56. The college hockey landscape has seen major changes since Chace led the fi rst Eli skaters down to Baltimore in 1896. Some things stay the same - Yale’s vital role in the history of college hockey and the sense of pride that every player, coach and fan feels when the Bulldogs take the ice.
