Will be interesting to say the least to see how each team treats their Ex Players..
I hope Simmer plays well.. of course he will .. but has no altercations with us..
And of course we win..
GO KINGS GO!!!

Love that first clip – back in the days when it could be hard to see the ice under the gloves and sticks! What I BITTERLY miss is our (fan’s) privilege of covering the ice in trash/garbage when warranted (Koharsky, you piece of shit…). It’s like Vegas trying to go all “family”.

Bullshit – back in ’74 or so, Tommy Webster and the Whalers were coming to the Sports Arena. I cadged two tickets and lobbied the parentals. Moms took me – along with her loaded snub-nose .38. There we were – a boy, his mother and her “friend” (in a Sweeney Todd kind of way) eating peanuts and enjoying the game. I expect they’d arrest you if you hit Koharsky with even a soft drink or half-eaten hot dog (my favorite) these days. Fuckers.

I remember watching those bench clearing brawls as a lad, but never seen one in person. Saw something close with the Long Beach Ice Dogs once, but nowhere near the whole teams being involved. Saw all 5 players for the Kings on the ice fight once, and my girlfriend and I were screamin for the goalies to fight, but they never did.
