1916–17 Yale Bulldogs Men's Ice Hockey Season
The 1916–17 Yale Bulldogs men's ice hockey season was the 22nd season of play for the program. Season On December 13, Yale announced Fred Rocque as their head coach. While the Bulldogs had coaches in years past, Rocque is cited as the first official coach in team history. Rocque, who had previously coached Dartmouth, substituted his player much more than the team had previously and would commonly have players perform at multiple positions in the same game. This tactic helped prevent the Elis from flagging at the end of games, something they had trouble with in recent years. Yale had their best season in 18 years, posting a .714 winning percentage in 14 games. More importantly, the Elis won the season series against Harvard for the first time since 1908. The Bulldogs two overtime losses to Princeton cost them, however, as the series loss left all three teams in a three-way tie in the IHL and prevented any team from claiming the Intercollegiate Championship for 1917. After the ...

1914–15 Dartmouth Men's Ice Hockey Season
The 1914–15 Dartmouth men's ice hockey season was the 10th season of play for the program. Season After two very successful seasons it appeared that Dartmouth was going to have a down year when it dropped its first two games of the season. The loss to defending Canadian champion Ottawa wasn't unexpected and it gave the team a good foundation when they began their season with a 4-2 win over MAC. After defeating defending champion Princeton 4–1 the team entered a showdown with Harvard which was expected to determine the champion for the season. Despite not being part of the big three, Dartmouth had challenged the powers over the previous two seasons but the team had yet to defeat the Crimson. In their ninth meeting, the Greens finally broke through on the strength of a hat-trick from Wanamaker and dispatched Harvard. After a succeeding win over MIT, Dartmouth entered their final collegiate game of the season against Yale with a championship waiting on the other side. Unfortuna ...
