NYHJ Profile of Yale's O'Gara Now Online

  

A new college hockey season is here, and with it is my first ECAC article for the 2015-16 campaign, a profile of Yale University senior defenseman Rob O'Gara. The issue can be accessed online here.

A Nesconset, NY native and a member of Yale's 2013 NCAA championship team, the 6-foot-4 O'Gara earned All-America accolades as a junior. He also led Yale with 15 assists last season, and has 10 goals and 43 points in his career to date.

The Bulldogs, who advanced to the NCAAs again last season, won't get the new season underway until Oct. 30 against ECAC rival Princeton at the Capital City Classic in Trenton, NJ.

Princeton senior scorer Andrew Calof is the subject of my latest feature story for New York Hockey Journal, which is now available online or at your local rink.

The Tigers (1-5 overall, 0-4 ECAC) are off to a rough start, while Calof has three assists in his first five games. Career-wise, he now has 40 goals and 65 assists for 105 points in 100 games in black-and-orange.

Princeton hosts UMass Lowell on Tuesday night at Baker Rink before entertaining Ivy league rival Dartmouth and Harvard this weekend. In Tiger alumni news, former defenseman Taylor Fedun tallied his first career NHL goal in his first career NHL game with the Edmonton Oilers, helping them to a 4-3 win at Minnesota on Nov. 5.
