Summary: 

Mike Ryan's comments on the final game were very informative, but he
neglected to mention that RPI's second goal shouldn't have been allowed.
The player who scored the goal (Sorry, I can't remember his name.  It's
the first NCAA game I've ever seen.) entered the face-off circle long
before the puck was dropped in RPI's end, skated up to intercept a pass
between the Providence point men, then raced down the ice and scored.
It was a beautiful play, but also illegal, and it probably wouldn't have
been possible if he hadn't had the head start he got from taking off early.
I'm sure RPI is worthy of the national title, but it would have been
interesting to see what would have happened had that goal not been allowed.
