So glad they explained the difference between the original Sens franchise from the early years and the 1992 EXPANSION franchise. Sens fans get really pissy when someone says the Sens (obviously meaning todays Sens) have never won a Cup. Which is accurate.
It's a pity Butch Goring is not in the HOF. He was the best player the Kings had for many years. I doubt very much the Islanders would have won 4 in a row without this energizer bunny.
I understand that this couldn't cover everything for every team... but dang... NO mention/photo of Jeremy Roenick or Ed Belfour during Blackhawks segment? They were megastars. EDIT: NO mention/photo of Wings-Avs brawl/rivalry during Avs segment? That pretty much defined Colorado as a league power from the start. Again, I understand that you can't cover everything for every team... but that was a pretty historic era that should have been at least mentioned/a few seconds of video, etc.
Willie O’Ree wasn’t the first person to break the color barrier, it was Larry Kwong. O’Ree was just the first black person. Kwong broke into the NHL 10 years before O’Ree. If we’re going to put people in the HHOF just because of race, Kwong should also be in there as well.
@Ryan Butcher yeah, og post said something about larry kwong?. I can't argue that because i don't know. I was just saying willie was a great hockey player as well, not JUST a guy who broke the colour barrier. You guys know your hockey history better than me it seems lol. Anyway, cheers bro.
Um...Why did they just stop talking about Toronto after mentioning Mats Sundin and Matthews? What about 92-93? 02-03? Their other playoff contentions? Doug Gilmour? Wendel Clark?...Hello?
Well they have 30 other teams to get too. Sorry that your team couldn’t be the specific topic of this video. Maybe look for their specific video? Not sure what exactly to tell ya
I AM SO PROUD, SO SO PROUD TO CALLE THE NEW JERSEY DEVILS MY TEAM!!!!!!! The Penguins got Mario and had a great run but that run did not lost 8 years...my Devils Got BRODEUR and we were dominant for TWO DECADES!!!! Now? MY Devils are on THE RISE again. It is October 18 and we are 4-0 and we have more players coming. Living in Philadelphia...Flyers fans laughed at me in the 80's. NOW???LOL LOL The flyers are OUR BITCH!!
Every other team that relocated: focus entirely on their history after the move Dallas Stars: spend half the history talking about their years in Minnesota. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
I couldn't give a shit about Montreal. They cheated. They had first, second and last dibs on every hockey player in Quebec. They. Cheated. The Red Wings, Hawks, Bruins, Rangers and Leafs had to actually compete for draft picks. Montreal always grabbed the best guys in the Province. Meh.
NHL teams had agreements with junior teams that they owned, mostly in the then OHA (now OHL). The Canadiens didn't get any of their stars any differently than the other Original Six teams. And back in the days of NHA, Quebecois players were seen to be lesser players by some. You're simply ignorant.
