HAMILTON, N.Y. - Colgate University men's hockey head coach Don Vaughan has announced that hockey legend Ray Bourque will serve as the guest speaker at the Silver Puck Dinner Saturday night at the Colgate Inn following the game against Yale.  

"We are obviously thrilled and excited to have Ray Bourque as our guest speaker for Silver Puck," said Vaughan. "He is one of the greatest players to have ever played the game. In my opinion Ray Bourque represents all that is great about the game of hockey. I am certain that this future NHL Hall Of Fame player will have a very inspiring message for our student athletes. I want to thank Jack McGlynn '69 for all of his help in convincing Ray to join us for the weekend."

A 12-time NHL All-Star, Bourque was a member of the 2001 Stanley Cup Champion Colorado Avalanche. Bourque also won the NHL's Norris Trophy, awarded to the league's top defenseman, five times (1987-88, 1990-91, 94) while with the Boston Bruins and was named the 1996 All-Star Game MVP. The all-time leader for points and assists by a defenseman finished his career with 1,579 points, 1,169 assists and 1,612 games played.  

Silver Puck Weekend will honor the teams of the '80s with games against Princeton on Friday night at 7 p.m. and Yale on Saturday at 4 p.m.
