May 11th 1972

The Boston Bruins shutout the New York Rangers 3-0 in game six of the finals to win the Stanley Cup. Bobby Orr scored the first goal of the game, making him the fourth player to score two Stanley Cup winning goals in his career.

bingo. your 1946-47 Calder Trophy winner, Howie Meeker.


Harry Watson had the other assist.

I thought Watson was the other one but I wasn't certain, plus I figured the pictures of him probably weren't as good/recognizable.

I had to see a specialist during the winter and when I googled him a bunch of articles came up about how his son was one of the rioters and he had to close his practice for a few months because he kept getting death threats lol.

/Good doctor though.
