Over the weekend CBC was showing Stanley Cup games from the 80's. One was game seven of the 1987 Edmonton and Philly series. What a different game. No ads on the boards really stand out, and so does the flow which seems a bit slower. Clogging up the nuetral zone hadn't been invented yet and defensemen constantly collapsed in their own zone allowing for plenty of offense.

I saw a bit of the Boston one,it was game four of the Oilers sweep and much less exciting than the Philly game 7. I would have liked to see it. The Boston game ended up 6-3 and was full of offense without the bad penalty calls that we have to suffer through now. It would be nice if the CBC played Stanley Cup winning games over the summer.

I saw the Boston one. Loved it! no rediculous penalty calls. Guys were being mugged and elbows were flying! It was awesome! The end to end action was sweet. Gotta love Cam Neely!
