Bulldogs Back to League Grind

NEW HAVEN — Keith Allain spent most of his Thursday morning trekking back from Buffalo, N.Y., where he coached the U.S. to a bronze medal at the World Junior Championships — the prestigious tournament won by the Russian team which made headlines for being kicked off its return flight home Thursday.

Allain made it back to New Haven just as Yale was finishing up its afternoon practice, boarded the team bus for the trip to Dartmouth and, before long, was fast asleep.

While Allain might be a little bleary-eyed, the top-ranked Bulldogs are rested and anxious to get back to action for this weekend’s ECAC Hockey series at Dartmouth (Friday, 7 p.m.) and Harvard (Saturday, 7 p.m.).
