I remember seeing them get killed 10-2 one night by the Leafs. Remember scoring $30 loge tickets against teams like Florida, Nashville, and Edmonton.
I was at that game as well...brought my two kids who were like 3 and 6 and it may have been their first or second game.

I looked it up and Phillipe Sauve came in to play the 3rd period in net

Brad Park never sipping Champagne from the Cup is almost criminal.
I still get a lump in my throat thinking about that and the fact that the B's
passed on him for some lump in the 1970 amateur draft only to finally get him in the blockbuster trade of '75 when Orr was skating on essentially one leg.
Did the Bruins management of '70 think that they had Orr and didn't need another uber talented blue-liner?
Imagine (for those of you who also lived in that most incredible time in Bruins history) Orr and Park on defense, on the PK, and especially the PP
for the Bruins for multiple years. Also, if Orr wasn't rushed back from surgeries from day one as a Bruin he maybe could've had several more season patrolling the Bruins blueline and racking up Cups. I've gotta go roll up in a ball and cry now.:(
Hugs…

I've become semi-obsessed with Park as I've aged. One of the most under appreciated stars of that era, along with Marcel Dionne. And in my younger days I always thought he had a much longer career with the Rangers, but he had almost equal time with both franchises. He, Ratty and Middleton were three of the keys to the B's staying competitive post Orr and Espo. Watching replays of the '76 and '77 finals the Habs were pressuring him constantly, which I'm sure was a purposeful strategy.
He was recently on Morning Bru
