Lemieux- I’d have to say he was the best player I ever saw play: let’s say 1979 to present day. How was he 1:1? I have a lot of respect for him, but his whining after the brawl game I discussed above was pretty weak.
When I was really little, 1977, 78? I was at a game and we were in our “other seats” in 301. It was the pre game skate. Isles-Flyers brawl. Thinking back at most of the games I ever attended, we were rarely at the pre game skate. But this day we were. All the player - Isles/Flyers - paired off - brawling.
