Plante, age 15.

Nice. Even though he's a legend, I think Plante is almost a bit under-rated. I personally consider he and Hašek the two greatest goalies in history...

-- 8 x the best GAA in the NHL (for three different franchises)
-- 5 x the best Save Percentage in the NHL (for three different franchises, including at age 42)
-- 6 x the best Save Percentage in the NHL playoffs (two franchises)
-- 6 Stanley Cups
-- Hart Trophy winner
-- 15 of 17 seasons had a winning record
-- 71 - 36 in the playoffs
-- Played pro to age 46

Hollywood Wolves est 1945-46 , 18yr old Bill Barilko was on this team but not sure which one he is in the photo.
Saw this photo in a recent online auction and had never heard of this team. I was surprised to find out that it was a Toronto Maple Leafs affiliate from 1944-47.

The Wolves played at the Pan Pacific Auditorium along with the Los Angeles Monarchs:

Was next to CBS Television City on Beverly Blvd, interesting history of the building that burned to the ground in 1989. LAistory: The Pan Pacific Auditorium

OK, this is weird. This is Peter Stastny, no doubt about it -- the photo/card is mis-labelled. (You can see his name on the back of the jersey.) However, I thought Stastny wore 26, not 29...

They mixed the pics. Stastny's card has a pic of Sundström. Corrected versions of the cards also exists.

Barilko is the one standing next to the coach.

When Statnsy was first acquired by the Devils Tommy Albelin wore #26. Statsny took #29. The following training camp Albelin didn't make the team and Statsny then took #26. When Albelin was recalled, he took #6.

Myre, Vachon, Dryden.

Puts into perspective just how big Dryden was for that era. He had 8 inches on Vachon... that's enough to make a guy change his mind between shooting and passing.

Not only the CCM bucket, but that ugly Oilers logo too!!

This is even weirder. One of his 4 games with the Petes.
