After Eddie almost killed Ace Bailey by hitting him from behind, Eddie himself started wearing a helmet. He could get away with it because nobody questioned his toughness, but he's the only one on the ice in some of these scenes wearing one.
Awesome video really cool for me to see , believe it or not , Eddie was my grandmas uncle not to sure what that makes him to me ahah great great uncle I guess, my grandma also donated the jersey that’s at the hall of fame in Toronto!
We would get the real feel of those days if only it were color and hd. I used to see Eddie Shore at games in 1970s when he owned his ahl team. I had a lot of respect for him and he seemed very cordial to people. Dang if I never asked for his autograph then or took a photo with him.
Yeah, but when Joe put on that dress and wig and was dancing around in front of a mirror, Eddie hit him with a hockey puck. Knocked him out cold. Joe had to get 25 stitches that day.
