This is really incredible! As a child growing up in St. Louis, I knew my parents had seen this era Blues when they were dating and I'd always heard the stories and read about them; however, I was never fortunate enough to actually see any (except, of course, Game 4 of the 1970 Finals). Thanks so much! Really appreciate it!
Two months later, Toronto would begin their descension with perhaps their worst trade- sending Frank Mahovlich, Garry Unger, Pete Stemkowski and the rights to Carl Brewer(who returned in 1969-70 to have an All-Star season) to Detroit for Norm Ullman,Paul Henderson,Floyd Smith and Doug Barrie.
This was the only NHL game for St. Louis backup goalie Don Caley, wearing Glenn Hall's #1. This was back in the days when the game could be interrupted so that the team making a goaltending change could take time to warm up the substitute; this practice was abolished in 1977-78. Maple Leafs legend Charlie Conacher and former Canadian Governor General Vincent Massey died the day this game was played.

Do you have the Blues/Bruins from February 23, 1991? (Hull had a hat trick)
Bowman was a great coach up there with Lombardi, Belichick, Auerbach, McCarthy etc in the other sports.

I suggest you remove the computer sound at the 1:19:17 mark.

Any Leafs games from the 2001-02 & 2002-03 seasons aired on The New VR?
