Just finishing watching game 6 against the Canadiens in 89 on sportsnet. Hopefully it's good luck. These little pop ups on NHL classics are pretty annoying. I don't care that Eric Desjardins went by the nick name Rico. Also, while the play was obviously full of things that are penalties now (and an insane amount of running over Vernon) but it's odd to note how much less went on after whistles. Not even as much grouping up, but no face washes, little cross checks, pushing or shoving. Whistle goes and they seem to be ready to move on to the next puck drop.
