The Record
TROY — Jerry D’Amigo triumphantly arrived back on
Rensselaer Polytechnic Institute’s campus on Thursday as
tired and sore as he was proud. And he said he needs to take
tonight off when the Engineers battle Quinnipiac in a key ECAC
Hockey contest but said he plans to return to the team for Sunday
afternoon’s game at Princeton.
The freshman left winger showed off his IIHF World Junior
Championship tournament gold medal, which thrilled the Americans on
the RPI roster and brought out mixed emotions among the
Canadians.
D’Amigo scored a tie-breaking goal, stole the puck and set
up another goal as the USA downed Canada, 6-5 in overtime for the
gold medal Tuesday night before 15,200 fans at Saskatoon, Sask.
