Post by: lasersailor184 on February 23, 2007, 11:34:45 AM: A couple years back I was in canada talking to a local about the downfall of hockey. This was before the strike. We got talking about the Broad Street Bullies of Philly. I really wish I had been alive in those days.

I was nicknamed SHotz when I played..I hated to see the 70's flyers roll into town against the Bruins. The B's couldn't fight a lick once Terry O'Reilly and McNabb were sent to the box.

What saved Malarchuk's life—more accurately, who—was Jim Pizzutelli, the team's trainer and a former Army medic who served in Vietnam. He reached into Malarchuk's neck and pinched off the bleeding, not letting go until doctors arrived to begin suturing the wound. Still, Malarchuk came within minutes of becoming only the second on-ice fatality in NHL history.

Amazingly, he returned to practice 4 days later. And a week after that, he was back between the pipes against the Quebec Nordiques. "Doctors told me to take the rest of the year off, but there was no way," Malarchuk says. "The longer you wait, the harder it's going to be."

Malarchuk spent only one night in the hospital, and was back on the ice with his team two weeks later.

Post by: bzek74 on February 26, 2007, 11:37:15 AM: The game this weekend was held under control and watched close by the NHL so it didnt get outta hand. For having 8 stand-ins the Sabres gave em a good run. 6-5

Post by: lasersailor184 on February 26, 2007, 02:51:07 PM: I got out to see my school's hockey team play. It was so much fun. We (as in the hockey players and the fans in the stands) brutalized the other team's goalie so bad that he was on the brink of tears. His entire team came off the bench to give him a hug.

Post by: Masherbrum on February 26, 2007, 04:29:53 PM: Reminds me of a Red Wings game I was watching with my old man back in 1986 or 1987. Glen Hanlon took an Al Iafrate slapshot (this was when Al was a Maple Leaf) to the NUTS. He shattered Hanlon's cup in 8 or 9 pieces, and then Red Wings announcer Dave Strader said "Wow Mickey he got hit in the abdomen hard huh?!" Mickey Redmond replied, "He didn't get hit in the abdomen, but he'll be singing soprano tomorrow." They broke to commercial while they woke him up. It knocked him out.

Al Iafrate lives in Livonia, Mi about 10 minutes from me. He now builds custom Harley's and is STILL built like a brick chithouse.
