Agreed on all. I would like to see a retro game someday, where some of todays top players use equipment made before they were born. Tube runner skates, all wood sticks, all leather gloves, even some of those heavy all felt chest protectors for the goalies. And no helmets, just for giggles. That would slow some of these guys down. There is a story about Gordie Howe shoveling a rebound into a goalies stomach when he could have put it into his face, telling him something along the lines of "Next time I put it in." Into his face or the net I dont know, but there isnt that kind of respect in the game today...
And Salo went down like he had been shot. Keith is becoming legendary
