For the most part Hockey East game pucks have had standard logos, and have been mostly printed  on the InGlasCo/Sherwood line of pucks.  The HEA logo has shown up on pucks starting around 1990.  There are some variations not included in this brief guide.  Some of the data in in the 1990s is hard to validate.
