Quick Facts Sport, Founded ...

The tournament was first held in 1978 and was usually played on the final two days of December every year until 1988.[1] Since then it was played infrequently (though with no more than a two-year gap between events) until 2008 when it returned to an annual schedule which it continues to possess.[2] In 2002 the holiday tournament changed its name from 'Auld Lang Syne' to 'Ledyard Bank' due to sponsorship.

The 2016 tournament featured a predetermined schedule, as opposed to an elimination format, which prevented a traditional championship game. Winner and placement as determined by record, as UMass Lowell's two regulation wins secured a title over Dartmouth's one win and one shootout win. Army secured third place with a regulation win and shootout loss, and Colgate finished fourth with two regulation losses.

Due to the COVID-19 pandemic, the tournament was not held in 2020. In 2021, the tournament returned to an elimination schedule, with Day 1's respective winning and losing teams facing each other the next day.
