BL, I still get a kick out of that story you told, at the end of the thread, about meeting a mystery man in a mall parking lot to exchange video footage of a game you were looking for. Legendary!

Nov 4, 1967. Philadelphia at Montreal. "Borrowed" from the vaults of the CBC to be copied, then later returned without anybody being the wiser.

The funny thing is that after searching for it for almost 50 years, I sorta miss the chase and Holy Grail nature of it.
I'm not even sure that finally getting to see it was more enjoyable than the search for it.
Anti-climactic and all.
