Did you see Jacques LaMaire fire that game winning goal against Cheevers from four feet inside his own blue line in the Cup in I forget what year? Knocked Jerry on his arse and went in. Lord forgive me, but, SCREW Bobby Hull... LeMaire had the most accuarte and powerful slapshot I ever saw.
And, speaking of Yvonne, remember when he would fire the puck nearly straight up over the defense at the blue line, deke them, get it back and deke the goalie??? Amazing!!!
Ah, the good old days. When hockey was about talent.
