31-0-0: Perfection
Bemidji State’s 1983-84 season saw the Beavers not only bring home their eighth national championship - and first at the Division II level - the program also set a still-standing collegiate hockey record for most victories in an unbeaten season with 31 (31-0-0). Those 31 wins helped BSU assemble a 42-game winning streak, also a collegiate hockey record. “Every so often in all athletCollege Hockey’s Unbeaten Teams ics there’s just a gathering of 1983-84 Bemidji State 31-0-0 1969-70 Cornell (N.Y.) 29-0-0 athletes who are just excel1995-96 Ala.-Huntsville 26-0-3 lent,” then-head coach R.H. 1955-56 Clarkson (N.Y.) 23-0-0 “Bob” Peters said of the 19831946-47 Colgate (N.Y.) 13-0-0 84 squad. “They’re excellent 1942-43 Colgate (N.Y.) 11-0-0 athletes and excellent people. Source: CCHA research There are other variables, too - experience, depth, injuries, leadership. All those things kind of came together for us, but it all begins with the gathering together of an outstanding group of athletes. It happens. Not often, though. “Personally speaking, I am very grateful for it. I feel very fortunate to know first-hand what goes into such a streak.” Bemidji State’s 1983-84 squad stands as one of six teams in college hockey history to post an undefeated season and one of only five to finish a season unbeaten and untied. Following is the exclusive list of those unbeaten clubs.
Perfection Turns 20 On Oct. 17, 2003, prior to Bemidji State’s home contest against Clarkson, the BSU athletics community celebrated the 20th anniversary of the perfect 1983-84 Division II National Championship team, honoring members of that team and retiring the #24 jersey worn by its captain, Joel Otto. Otto, the 1984 Division II Hobey Baker Award winner, a 1998 Olympian and 1989 Stanley Cup Champion with the Calgary Flames, became the first player in BSU history to have his jersey retired.
Left: Ryan Huddy, who wore Otto’s #24 before the number was retired; R.H. “Bob” Peters; Joel Otto; and BSU President Jon Quistgaard at the ceremony retiring Otto’s jersey on Oct. 17, 2003.

Division I-Era Exhibition Games
In the program’s Division I era, the first opportunity for the Bemidji State faithful to get a look at the Beavers in game action has typically come in exhibition fashion. BSU has squared off against Canadian programs 10 times since its inaugural Division I season in 1999-2000, opening a season with a foreign exhibition tilt five times. BSU has posted a .550 record in its international exhibitions, going 5-4-1 record in its seven Division I-era games. Six of BSU’s 10 international exhibitions have come against the University of Manitoba, with BSU leading the series 3-2-1. The Beavers tied the Bisons, 3-3, in the first meeting on Oct. 14, 2000, then defeated the Bisons twice during the 2002 season - a 4-2 win in a pre-season exhibition and a 10-4 blowout win in the first round at North Dakota’s Subway Holiday Classic. Manitoba won two meetings, 5-3 in 2004 and 5-2 in 2005, before dropping the most recent contest to the Beavers 5-1 Nov. 20, 2007. Of BSU’s four other international exhibitions, the Beavers are 1-2 against Regina, and earned a 7-1 victory in their only meeting versus Concordia-Montreal in 2003. Bemidji State has also hosted the U.S. National Under-18 Team on three occasions. BSU dropped a 2002 exhibition, 4-3, and posted a pair of victories (6-2, 3-2) in 2007.

Scoring Summary
#1 Denver 4, Bemidji State 3 (OT) AMHERST, Mass. - Bemidji State nearly became the first No. 4 seed in an NCAA Tournament regional to topple the region’s No. 1 seed in the first round, falling to eventual national champion Denver, 4-3 in overtime. Kevin Ulanski scored the gamewinner for the Pioneers 2:36 into the extra period. Brett Skinner fired a puck on goal, and it deflected off of Ulanski’s leg and past BSU goaltender Matt Climie to propel the Pioneers into the regional final. Bemidji State came out strong, and despite being out-shot 18-6, held two one-goal leads in the first period. Brendan Cook became the first 40point scorer in BSU’s Division I era and drew the Beavers even just 2:17 into the third period. The goal was his 10th power-play goal of the season, tying his own BSU Division I-era single-season record. Climie saved a career-high 45 shots for BSU. He set a career high for saves in a period with 16 in the first, then turned aside 14 shots in the second, 11 in the third and four in overtime. His 45 saves tied BSU’s single-game season high, but he saw a streak of 15 consecutive appearances allowing three goals or less come to an end. He took the loss and ends his freshman season at 12-5-1. NOTES: No. 1 seeds remained undefeated in the NCAA Tournament since the field expanded to 16 teams in 2003... BSU falls to 0-1 all-time in the NCAA Tournament... CHA programs fall to 1-4 all-time in the NCAA Tournament... BSU and Denver played the 61st overtime game in NCAA Tournament history... Shane Holman scored BSU’s first NCAA Tournament goal at 1:40 of the first period... John Haider’s assist on Holman’s goal gives him an eight-game post-season scoring streak (seven games in the CHA Tournament and one game in the NCAA Tournament)... Denver’s goal at 5:35 of the first period snapped Matt Climie’s streak of consecutive scoreless minutes in goal at 177:41.

Scoring Summary
#2 Wisconsin 4, Bemidji State 0 GREEN BAY, Wis. - For the second consecutive season, Bemidji State was knocked out of the NCAA Tournament by the eventual national champion as Wisconsin’s Joe Pavelski recorded a hat trick to help propel the Badgers to a 4-0 victory in the semifinals of the 2006 NCAA Tournament Midwest Regional. The Beavers had a five-minute power play following a major penalty and subsequent game misconduct for checking from behind to Wisconsin forward Ryan MacMurchy at 11:13 of the first. BSU did not garner a shot, and the Badgers successfully killed the penalty when Jean-Guy Gervais was called for tripping at 15:31. The major expired at 16:13, and with six seconds remaining in the ensuing power play Wisconsin forward Joe Pavelski scored his 21st goal of the season to give the Badgers a 1-0 lead. The Badgers pushed their lead to 2-0 just 26 seconds into the second period. Pavelski won a draw with Gervais at the right dot, picked up the puck and beat BSU goaltender Layne Sedevie, unassisted, for his second marker of the night. Wisconsin extended its lead to 3-0 in the final minutes of the second. Adam Burish picked up a loose puck behind the goal line and fed linemate Jake Dowell below the left circle, and Dowell slid a shot between Sedevie’s skates. The assist was the second of the night for Burish, and the two-goal outburst capped a dominant period for the Badgers, who out-shot BSU 23-4 in the frame. The 3-0 lead for Wisconsin held until late in the third period, until Pavelski completed his hat trick at 6:39 of the third on a power-play opportunity to wrap up the game’s scoring. Gervais picked up his second penalty of the night for high sticking-contact to the head at 5:05, and Pavelski’s third marker came 1:33 later. The 4-0 shutout snapped BSU’s Division I-era record streak of 69 consecutive games with a goal scored dating back to Nov. 12, 2004. The shutout is also just the third in NCAA Tournament play for BSU.

Bemidji State Hockey
The John S. Glas Fieldhouse
True Home-Ice Advantage
Since its debut as Bemidji State’s home arena for the 1967-68 season, the Beavers have built one of college hockey’s strongest home-ice advantages at John Glas Fieldhouse. In 658 games played over 41 full seasons at the Glas, BSU has posted a remarkable 479-138-41 record on its home ice (.759). In addition, BSU has posted 53 shutouts at the Glas and all-time has out-scored its opposition by an average of nearly three goals per game. BSU went 3-3-0 in its first six games played at the Glas, but from there won 13 in a row and 32 of the next 33 games played in its new facility. The run set the tone for home-ice dominance which would become a storied part the BSU tradition. In 2003-04, BSU set two school scoring records on its home ice. BSU’s 42 goals scored at the Glas were its fewest ever, but the Beavers also set a record for fewest goals allowed at home, with opponents lighting the lamps just 28 times in 14 games. • The Beavers set a school record with five ties at the Glas in 2002-03.
The 2008-09 campaign marks the 42nd season of competition for Bemidji State University’s John S. Glas Fieldhouse, a storied and revered barn which has established its legacy as one of the iconic arenas in all of college hockey. The home of BSU men’s ice hockey since 1967 and BSU women’s ice hockey since 1998, “The Glas” debuted as the Fieldhouse Expansion to the BSU Physical Education Complex when the Beavers played host to the Minnesota Nationals on Nov. 17, 1967. Final plans for the $970,000 Fieldhouse expansion were laid in the mid-1960s under the direction of thenBSU President Dr. Harry Bangsberg and athletics director Dr. Vic Weber. The Minnesota legislature granted authority to built the expansion in 1965, and the fieldhouse expansion was dedicated on Feb. 10, 1968. In the 41 seasons since, the Bemidji State men’s hockey program has established one of the true home-ice advantages in all of college hockey and has been simply dominant in the building. The Beavers have posted a 479-138-41 record in 658 games played at John Glas Fieldhouse, and have had a losing home-ice record just once during the life of the arena. Eleven times in its history BSU has assembled unbeaten streaks of 10 or more games in the building, while averaging nearly 5.6 goals per game. In total, BSU has out-scored its opposition by more than 1,700 goals at “The Glas.” Bemidji State posted an 8-3-3 record on its home ice in 2004, and set a school single-season record for fewest goals allowed in a season at home by surrendering just 28 in 14 games. That season helped kick-start a four-year stretch which has seen BSU post a 47-20-8 record on its home ice with 11 shutouts, including a school-record five in 2007-08, and outscore its opposition by a combined margin of 262-169. BSU’s 10 victories at the Glas in 2005-06, coupled with a 12-win season in 2004-05, gave BSU back-to-back 10-win seasons on its home ice for the first time as a Division I program. It marked the program’s first such streak since a fouryear streak of seasons with 10 or more home wins from 1996-2000. In addition to its role as BSU’s home facility for both men’s and women’s ice hockey, the Glas Fieldhouse also plays a prominent role in a variety of events for the BSU and Bemidji area communities. High school contests and area youth figure skating shows occur while the ice is in place, while when the ice is removed the building plays host to events varying from the annual Jaycees Home, Sport and Travel Show to BSU’s commencement ceremonies.
Championship Tradition Only adding to Bemidji State’s already-stellar winning tradition at John Glas Fieldhouse are the five national championships BSU has won on its home ice. The Beavers have competed for a national title six times at The Glas, bringing home an NAIA Championship in 1971 and four NCAA Division II Championships in 1984, 1986, 1993 and 1997.
John S. Glas From the time of its completion until Oct. 1, 1975, BSU’s hockey facility held the name of BSU Fieldhouse. But it was renamed in honor of the retiring John S. Glas (right), the acting president of Bemidji State University at the time of the arena’s completion. Glas arrived in Bemidji in 1939 to serve as business manager under thenBSU President Charles R. Sattgast and would remain with BSU for 36 years. When Glas arrived, the campus consisted of just two buildings - Deputy and Sanford Halls - which served as the educational environment for the institution’s 340 students.
82
In 1957, Glas was appointed Assistant to the President, and in 1968 he was elevated to Vice President for Administrative Affairs and later earned the title Vice President Emeritus. The decision to rename the Fieldhouse was recommended by the Men’s Physical Education Department. The Long Range Planning Committee endorsed the change, and President Dr. R.D. Decker submitted a request to the State University Board that it officially name the fieldhouse for Glas, “in recognition of his long and dedicated service to Bemidji State University.”
• BSU’s 68 goals scored at home in 2004-05 were a Division I-era record and most for the program since 1997-98. • BSU went 10-3-2 at the Glas in 2006, giving it back-to-back 10-win seasons on its home ice for the first time since the program moved to Division I in 1999. • BSU has posted 13 shutouts at The Glas since the start of the 2001 season, matching its total in the previous 18 seasons combined (13).

National Playoffs at The Glas
Bemidji State has won more than a third of its 13 national championships on its home ice, bringing home the title five times in six championship series at John Glas Fieldhouse. BSU won national titles in front of the home-crowd faithful in 1971, ‘84, ‘86, ‘93 and ‘97. BSU’s only failed opportunity to win a national title on its home ice came in 1974, when Lake Superior State celebrated an NAIA Championship victory after a 4-1 win over the host Beavers.

Tradition Never Graduates Each locker in the Bemidji State locker room is adorned with a plaque listing by jersey number the players from BSU hockey’s illustrious history who have won All-America honors, represented their country on the U.S. National or U.S. Olympic hockey teams or gone on to play in the National Hockey League. The plaques serve as a constant reminder of the responsibility each member of the Bemidji State program takes upon himself each time he puts on a Beaver hockey sweater - to be mindful of the history of one of college hockey’s elite programs, and to recognize the honor of continuing the legacy established by those former players. After all, while hockey players may come and go, tradition never graduates.

Bemidji State Hockey
Bemidji State Strength Training and Conditioning
Strength and conditioning is a key component to the success of any athletic program and that is no different at Bemidji State University. Beaver Hockey players make a year-round commitment to physically preparing for the rigors of an NCAA Division I hockey season. The goal of BSU’s program is to increase the overall athletic performance of each student-athlete, prevent injuries and help the athlete reach their full potential. The Bemidji State men’s hockey training program is a complex mix of science, nutrition, technology and unique movements. Bemidji State assistant hockey coach Bert Gilling draws on his background in anatomy and physiology to oversee the Beaver Hockey strength and conditioning and tailor specific programs to enhance each student-athlete’s performance. The Bemidji State athletic weight room is a 35,000-square foot facility that houses nearly 20,000 pounds of free weights and several hockey specific items. Overall, the room is home to five squat racks, five Olympic lift power platforms, dumbbells ranging from five to 130 pounds, two custom-made skating slide boards, a pair of Russian plyometric boxes and numerous other free weight stations. In addition to the traditional free-weight training, Gilling has implemented several unique exercises and stations into the training program. Beaver Hockey players routinely incorporate different movements using chains, sandbags, industrial tires and plyometric boxes to give the student-athlete a well-rounded workout that will help condition their cardiovascular system, increase strength and stabilize joints. During the team’s dry land training, the BSU Hockey training program is modified to take full advantage of the incomparable setting of the university in the pines of Northern Minnesota. The team sets aside time each week for ‘Adventure Training’ where athletes work together in team building exercises as well as using the landscape to create an unparalleled training experience. Venues for these sessions have included Lake Bemidji, the City of Bemidji’s picturesque parks and even a local ski hill.

Bemidji State Hockey
Previous Bemidji State Hockey Venues Previous BSU Rinks The Bemidji State hockey team, referred to at times as the “Hard Luck Boys” in its early days, tried out several hockey rinks before finding a home in 1967 at the John S. Glas Fieldhouse.
1947-50 / Bemidji Sports Arena Not originally intended to be a hockey facility, the Bemidji Sports Arena was plagued with a number of problems from the start... Poor sight lines and seating along with an undersized ice surface were only a few of the arena’s more-obvious drawbacks... At 2:20 p.m., January 4, 1949, the arena’s roof collapsed due to structural failure... Several children were skating directly under the caved-in section of the roof, but miraculously escaped the falling beams and timbers. The team continued to use the facility for another season, but after an attempt at Lake Bemidji for a home venue, the Beaver program would cease for a nine-year period... The first BSU game played at the Bemidji Sports Arena is believed to be a 12-1 loss to the Grand Rapids Raiders on Feb. 16, 1947. BSU posted a 14-10-0 (.583) record at the Bemidji Sports Arena.
1959-60 / 17th Street Rink Located at the Bemidji High School athletic field, the Beavers found a new outdoor home rink... The new facility was underwritten with a $1,000 donation from the Beaver Union Board... However, the site would be temporary; after just two games the site was moved to the college campus... 200 fans were on hand to witness the return of Beaver hockey at Bemidji State Feb. 13, 1960 after a nineyear absence... The Beavers fell to St. Cloud State 4-2 in their return engagement... Referee Dick Kroll was injured at 3:21 of the third period, bringing a halt to the opening game of the season.... BSU posted a 1-1-0 record in two games at the 17th Street Rink.
1960-67 / College Rink Often referred to as the 19th Street Rink, the facility was located just south of the physical education building and gymnasium... The Beavers played seven seasons here before moving to the John S. Glas Fieldhouse. The first game played at the College Rink took place Jan. 5, 1961 when the Beavers defeated St. John’s 3-1 under balmy temperatures and on melting ice... The Beavers would close out their last game at the College Rink Feb. 4, 1967 with an 8-1 win over Wisconsin-Superior... Bemidji State won its final 17 games played at the College Rink before moving into the newly-constructed John S. Glas Fieldhouse for the 1967-68 season.... BSU posted a 35-8-1 (.807) record at College Rink.
