Harvard Stadium in 1910.

Ryan O'Neal in the box at Harvard's old Watson Rink(now the Bright-Landry Center).

Now what's going on here? That Canuck in the background has the logo for the home whites on his jersey! And appears to have some patch on his shoulder that the other players don't have! Hmmm... a pre-season game perhaps with patched-up jerseys for the "scrubs" not likely to make the team? "V" design on the sleeve places this in 70-71 or 71-72...

It appears to be Ryan Kesler.

It appears to be Ryan Kesler.

Well just goes to show how I'm not up on modern hockey that I didn't realize it was a current Canucks uniform and player. Nice photoshopping, whoever did it!!

1960s – Allan Stanley flying over Johnny Bower

March 5, 1968 – Love this photo of 13-year NHL-veteran Claude Provost and Jacques Laperrière

1970/71 ca – Brawl between California Golden Seals and Chicago Blackhawks. Dennis Hextall (# 22) and Bill White (# 2) are standing by

March 21, 1972 – Good old time hockey in the EHL (New Haven vs Syracuse). Goalie Jim Armstrong (New Haven) straddling referee Gordie Heagle while choking him, this after the referee had punched a player in the face. Before all this the evening began with a bomb threat called in to the arena, then a player got his skates stolen, after that someone clipped the phone lines for local radio broadcaster. Can anyone say Slap Shot? (which by the way was filmed in this arena)

September 1972 – A proud Bill Goldsworthy have just bought himself his first (and probably only) balalaika

November 29, 1980 - Brad Marsh pushed into the plexi by Bryan Maxwell (# 4)

1985/86 – Battle of Québec. Pat Price (# 7) - Stephane Richer (# 44) and Clint Malarchuk

March 17, 1986 – From L to R – Tiger Williams (# 22) – Dean Kennedy (# 6) – Gary Nylund (# 2) – Russ Courtnall (# 9) and goalie Don Edwards who went on to just play three more NHL games after this one

1980s – Back to school ! – The Green unit listening to coach Tikhonov (right) like a bunch of school kids

1980s – Action shot from one of the Legend of Hockey series that featured Soviet and Canadian players who played in the 1972 Summit Series. Yvan Cournoyer have just scored and one would think that it’s the Summit Series all over again, given the reaction from the crowd

2000 - Jaromir Jagr pond hockey

December 31, 2011 – World Junior Championships - Emerson Etem colliding with goalie Scott Wedgewood

November 23, 2016 – Conor Sheary (# 43) scoring on Henrik Lundqvist

Brodeur started with a right-handed catcher? There's some trivia for ya.

1974-76 ca - Vaclav Nedomansky of the Toronto Toros

1978 - publicity photo of Anders Hedberg and Ulf Nilsson with coach Fred Shero. Both players would only wear that version of the Rangers uniforms through the exhibition games as the team would switch back to their traditional uniforms at the start of the 1978-79 regular season.

1974/75 - Anders Hedberg and Ulf Nilsson of the Winnipeg Jets in action against the short lived Michigan Stags.

2000 - Jaromir Jagr pond hockey

Did Goldsworthy get that thing wrapped up at a butcher shop?

Anders Hedberg looks like Valeri Bure in that pic if Valeri Bure actually aged a bit

^^ Geez I liked that guy... Jim Craig .... like he left everything on the ice in Lake Placid ... conquered Everest & that was that.... then had a huge Rep to live with .... not completely uncommon as weve seen it at various times over the years & decades with players coming out of elite amateur to Junior, Junior & NCAA to pro, internationally..... transition to the pro game rocky to say the least for Jimmy .... gotta feel for him.

At least he had a decent acting career ... (for a hockey player).

ACTING

After the success of the 1980 Winter Olympics, Jim Craig was offered several guest appearance spots on iconic television shows. Jim’s all time favorite was the opportunity to be in a Coke commercial with his father, Donald.
Jim’s notable appearances included:

• Love Boat
• Laverne & Shirley
• Coca-Cola commercial
• Old Spice commercial

Not much to Jim Craig. He wasn't all that great a goalie, caught lightning in a bottle, then reverted back to what he was

February 2, 1954 - Detroit General Manager Jack Adams (Ted Lindsay with the C) with a makeshift trophy given to the winner of a game between Detroit Red Wings and Marquette Prison Pirates (18:0 after the first period). Imagine the NHLPA of today accepting having their guys playing against a bunch of inmates

I had heard in those days that the Wings played an exhibition games against the IHL , but never heard anything like this before. Perhaps this was hockey's version of, "The Longest Yard"?

 

[leetch99]

There is a story out there online about that game with the inmates as I remember reading it a few years ago . It was a great read if you can find it . I think it was in these forums somewhere .

From 1973 to 1989, the Beanpot tournament had the same four coaches. Left to right: Len Ceglarski(BC), Fernie Flaman(Northeastern), Jack Parker(BU) and Bill Cleary(Harvard).

Sadly, Len Ceglarski(far left) passed away this past weekend at the age of 91. He was also a longtime coach at Clarkson before his tenure at BC, an Olympic silver medalist in 1952 , a Lester Patrick Award recipient and US Hockey Hall of Fame inductee.

That name is so familiar. I think he was an instructor at the hockey school I went to in Rhode Island as a kid.
