Thank you!!! My Dad recorded this on VHS but only did the first few minutes (ended around the 10 minute mark I think) and the last minutes of the game and the last skates around the ice. He also recorded the same tape the tribute show they did a few days later. What an experience and send off! I teared up at the last skate....
Raymond Bourque was good like the Esposito number retirement, when he was wearing 7 then, he took off the old jersey, and the number was 77. And the Boston Bruins, retired 7 for Esposito
The players in the Bruins on WSBK intro should've had Shore, Schmidt, Cheevers, Don Cherry wearing his famous too-many-men suit, Bobby Orr, Phil Esposito & Ray Bourque.
I MUST have that Boston Garden 'Last Hurrah' patch for my Bruins reverse retro jersey. It's become very hard to find. There was one listed on Ebay just recently but some bastard beat me to it.
Anyone here watching Sean McDonough call the last two minutes in the history of the original Gahden after he called Pasta’s OT thriller Saturday night???
My guess it had to do with maintaining the ice and other things like concession stands etc. Maybe they could only serve so much and so long since it was about to get torn down.
Not as far as I am aware. When Montreal played the final game at The Forum they should have been playing against either BOSTON or Tarrannah and not against Dallas.
those poor bruins players who had to sit around and watch this silly ceremony t the end, and i feel doubly more bad for those who were traded shortly after this game lol
Steve Kaspar is the worst coach ive ever seen in my life. Im 35 now and as a kid I loved this Bruins team. They had Oates, Bourque, Neely and a good surrounding cast. After they hired Kaspar, everything changed. The vets hated him and he ruined the franchise. Kaspar is even worse then the fake Hitler we hired (Dave Lewis) around 2004ish.
