I can't remember everyone that went into the crowd. Peter Mcnabb was one. Not sure about O'Reilly, maybe Bobby schmautz

The game is faster now, but with that, the players have become more reckless

The best was we had O'Reilly, John Wensink, and Stan Johnathan as enforcers. NOBODY Beat Johnathan or Wensink in a fight.

Yeah. But the brawls back then...

You had to answer for your actions a hell of a lot more. That's missing today.

Not as many suspensions back then. You did something dirty to a player, especially a star player, they took care of it on the ice with a major ass kicking

Those are real hockey players. Love that they retired Taz's number. And I have some hope for Lucic that he might reach that level. He's probably the only guy in the league that might.

But if any of those guys were on the team and Cooke tried his bullshit, the guy would have to be benched for every Bruins game after. They'd fuck him up. And that's not nostalgia, that's the way those guys played. They would have fucked him up.

Damn straight. He wouldn't be able to get on the ice without getting his ass kicked. That's the way it was back then.

30 years ago what was thought of fighters who went after non-fighters late in games?

And I really think Lucic is a good player, a great power forward, but in a lot of the games I have seen him he has been going after smaller skilled players and avoiding players who want to go with him.

They thought, "Hey, let's get Dave Semenko."
