18 Oct. 8 • 2018-19 University of Maine Men’s Ice Hockey Game Notes 1999 2019 UNIVERSITY OF MAINE 20TH ANNIVERSARY MEN'S ICE HOCKEY 1999 1998

The 1998–1999 season crowned a much-less-likely champion than that of 1993. Maine did not win the regular season crown, nor the conference tournament. They advanced to the NCAAs on an at-large bid due to a successful regular season. 1 National Championship Following wins over Ohio State and Clarkson University, Maine advanced to the 1999 Frozen Four in Anaheim, California, where they would meet some familiar foes. Maine and Boston College squared off in the national semis, with Maine goalie Alfie Michaud besting and lifting the Black Bears past the Eagles 2–1 in NCAA Tournament MVP overtime. 1 Led by Hobey Baker Award winner and future NHL goal- tender Ty Conklin, #1 ranked UNH was looking to win their program’s first national championship. Goals by Ben Guite and Niko Dimitrakos and more outstanding goaltending by eventual tournament MVP Alfie Michaud kept the score tied 2–2 at the end of regulation. 2 First Team Hockey East Members Shortly after the 10-minute mark in OT, a careless play by UNH in their defensive zone turned into Maine’s opportunity as Cory Larose swiped a drifting puck off the nearside boards and made a cross-ice pass to Marcus Gustafsson. Conklin made the initial save but with no defensive help, Gustafsson collected his own rebound and scored the 2 Titles for Coach Shawn Walsh game winner to clinch Maine’s second National Championship.
