Just some cool shots of Wayne in the first three years with L.A. Those Kings' jersey from 1988-1991 were so lovely.

Found out the 1948 RCAF flyers had a 20th anniversary game in 1968 where they wore slightly different sweaters:

Library and Archives Canada shows that this game was played against the NHL - QHL old pros at the Ottawa Civic Centre.

Anyone have any additional photos or information about that game?

That's the Allan Cup to the left. The old lady with the hockey stick and the bag is supposed to represent the Grand-Mère Hockey Club from Québec who had just lost the 1914 Allan Cup challenge series (over 2 games) to the Regina Victorias. The caricature's from the March 19, 1914 issue of the Regina Leader-Post newspaper. I'm not gonna pretend I can speak French but grand-mère means grandmother, hence the whole grandmother thing. The bird on the trophy though, I'm not sure what that's about.

From what I read briefly about this series though it was pretty friendly overall and several Grand-Mère HC representatives (players/coaches) gave compliments to Regina and its papers afterwards, so I think or assume this picture above was probably done and published with a relatively light-hearted spirit.

Todd Marchant and Mike Grier embrace after Marchant’s series winning overtime goal in game 7 vs Dallas in 1997. I was watching the game on sportsnet the other night and found this photo while googling Marchant.

Kind of hard to be sure, but I'm guessing the rooster crowing at the sunrise represents a "new day".

The only odd thing is that Regina was the defending Cup holder, so it's not as though Grand-Mere was being replaced as champion. Kind of odd, feels like there's still some context missing. Perhaps some contemporary cultural reference to leaving on the first train in the morning, or something similar.

FWIW, the town of Grand-Mere gets its name from a face-like rock formation:

So representing them as a literal grandmother being sent off down the railroad tracks is a (very mild and low-hanging) jab from the cartoonist.

I have no idea why they changed the numbers from silver to black. Looked so much better in silver.

Here’s a shot of the Great One in his office. I don’t recall ever seeing it before and oddly enough have come across it twice in the past few days.
