Hi everyone! Welcome back to Golden Seals Hockey for another trip in the Way-Back Machine. This week, I’ve added a new article detailing Bert Olmstead’s frustrations as he thought about resigning as head coach. Olmstead’s one and only season behind the bench (1967-68), did not at all go as planned. The Seals were expected to contend for the division crown. Instead, they were pretty much out of the playoff picture before Christmas, and by February, they were already busy polishing up their golf clubs. Olmstead made one last-ditch effort to better understand what was wrong with his players, but all that resulted from his observations way up in the stands was that he became even more disillusioned. You can read all about Olmstead’s last stand in the articles section.

There is also a new addition to the Overexposed wing of the Hockey Hall of Shame, and like most of the previous additions, it tries really, really hard to be cool, but in the end it achieves everything but coolness. It looks like poor Brent Sapergia of the San Diego Gulls got himself some really bad advice from some hack photog. Bad advice that likely continues to give the dude nightmares to this day. Take a trip down memory lane to a simpler time when men tried to look like rats, and women tried to look like Brillo pads that were struck by lightning. Check out this horrific slab of cardboard over in the Hall of Shame!

Until next time, stay gold!
