45 Years ago Today - Bruins in the stands at MSG

[TP70BruinsCup]

December 23, 1979

I could watch this all day long! Hard to believe it’s been 45 years!

I think my favorite comment is Johnny Peirson at the 2:30 mark of the video ‘….the Bruins are are at an added disadvantage with those skates….’ . He says it like they are trying to kill a penalty!!!!

Other than Marchand, I can't imagine anyone on this B's team doing this...lol.

Quite the coincidences Bruins had a Billerica guy on that team and 45 years later have
another. That was Bobby Miller's second off ice incident in 4 years as he and several
members of the 1976 US Olympic Team were involved in a barroom incident at end of the '76 Olympics.

I remember watching this game with one of my buds, who was back home visiting family. We were having a couple of frosty's (well more than a couple) and were whopping it up at games end.

Had a bit of a hangover at work the next day, but being XMAS Eve boss let us go about one and managed to get a 2 hour nap in and make the family Xmas Eve party no problem.

That was a hell of a way to cap off the 1970's against an O6 opponent with several Big Bad Bruins still on the team...lol.
