DICK DOUGHERTY

A 2003 inductee into the US Hockey Hall of Fame, Dick Dougherty teamed with the great John Mayasich, under the guidance of John Mariucci, to create the golden age of Golden Gophers hockey in the 1950s.  Dougherty finished his Gophers career second only to Mayasich in career points (in the 60 years that have passed, he has dropped to tenth on the list).  He was a part of the Gophers' first two WCHA championship teams, was a first-team All-American in 1954, and won a Silver Medal as a member of the 1956 US Olympic team.
