Hi everyone! So… anything interesting happen this week?

No?

Ok, I guess onto this week’s new Seals stuff. This time, we’re going back to 1973. The Seals were dead last in the West, and Montreal was in town to lay down their usual beating, but that wasn’t the real story. It was February 4, and the fans may have been a little upset that the Seals were miles out of the playoff race after coming so close the year before. A couple of fans got into a bit of a skirmish behind the Seals bench, necessitating the intervention of the police. The whole kerfuffle is detailed here in this article from the Oakland Tribune‘s John Porter.

After spending the last week gasping at the Hockey Hall of Shame’s latest addition, we trudge down the Overexposed wing to wince at the chaos of the New York Islanders’ goal crease, circa 1981-82. Which of the Islanders’ many Hall-of-Famers are we going to expose? You’ll just have to head on over to this week’s induction to find out.

Anyway, assuming the country is still standing next week (Hey, now I remember what happened this week… my daughter has been learning to stand on her two feet!), we’ll be back for more on-and-off ice action. Until next time, stay gold!
