excellent document!!

Yellow pants, white skates, that crazy music... it certainly was the 1970s.

Rogie Vachon. The reason I am an L.A. Kings fan to this day. Such a brilliant,exciting goalie.

Attendance at The Forum was 10,268.

The Golden Seals messed up big time winning this game by shutting down any playoff hockey for the State of California in April /May 1973 ...Great nobody is paying attention on sports television, or paying at the hockey rink box office 💰💰💰💰 attending games till next September 73.... Hockey in the California Sunshine !

Growing up in Canada with one game a week on TV during this era, these teams were only captured for us kids by hockey cards and magazines, because we never saw them play. The Seals and Kings had the coolest uniforms. It’s so great to see footage of them playing against each other at the Fabulous Forum.

No better color matchup in the 1970's!

Rogie is 5'7"", never seemed to matter much he was so agile and quick, 3 time Cup winner in days before Dryden.

Vintage Golden Seals

Given how very few games that they won, it was nice for them to get a win and play the role of spoiler. Thanks for posting the video.

Always felt sorry for Meloche. Every night facing massive amount of shots and no hope of winning...that's called shell shocked. I'd guess he still has nightmares every night of rubber discs flying at him. He started with Chicago as Tony O's backup, saw him play a few games, pretty decent. Imagine him as the first string on a good team. Like Marcel Dione one of the greatest goal scorers in NHL history. But try to imagine if he played for a great team...Wayne who and he was a great all around player.

Is the announcer Tim Ryan?

I named one of my dogs after Rogie. Go Kings! Still watching them over 50 years later. I moved close to the bay area during high school and caught a Kings/ Seals game in Oakland. Years after they folded a friend showed up at another friends house wearing that awesome Seals jersey. I begged him for it. A few months later, after i forgot about it, he handed me a bag and to my surprise it was that jersey. Wish i knew what happened to that thing 😢

Joey Johnson looks like the "I'm gonna straighten you out..." guy from Slap Shot.

Love the uniforms!!

I loved those all gold uniforms of the Kings when I was a kid.

Looking at the standings for this season, you'd think Clarence Campbell was smoking crack. In the Eastern Division, you have a familiar eastern venue in Vancouver while in the West Division you have western venues like Philadelphia, Pittsburgh, and Atlanta. Would have made more sense to have Philly, Pittsburgh, and Atlanta in the East and Vancouver, Detroit, and Toronto in the West.

When goalies played on they’re skates, not on they’re knees.

Everyone always talks about Orr in this tournament and rightfully so as he was the MVP of the tournament but Rogie was the MVP of team Canada

Ahhh the golden state plying hockey

Serge Bernier for Kings.

Future Flyer and Conn Smythe winner Reggie Leach scores the 2nd goal for the Seals. And note the white skates on the Seals.

What an awesome video collage of the great saves in the 1976 Canada Cup tournament from Rogatien (Rogie) Vachon. I was 14 years old in September of ‘76 and did not watch all of Canada’s games. My favourite save was the slap shot from Milan Novy that Rogie picked out of the air that had “goal” written all over it. Great memories here. I’d still love to get my hands on one of those Team Canada jerseys! 🇨🇦

California and Oakland Seals (Late 60's) were always my favorite uniforms of all time as are my Oakland A's still ~ Second favorite were the Minnesota North Stars ~ home whites were beautiful

Dang it Kings! We needed that one!

Expansion and two leagues made for terrible low level. Go back and watch skaters in 60s Boston or Montreal and compare with skaters in this clip.

My grandfather played in this game. Very cool to be able to see him in action!! Thanks for the video

I Loved watching this program every Saturday afternoon on NBC in Chicago back in the day. It was the NFL films of the NHL at the time!

70's hockey, LOVE IT! 12-16 teams was more than enough for me. 30 teams sucks.

It's Rogie Vachon vs. Gilles Meloche. It's Butch Goring vs. Joey Johnston (whose 1974 hockey card I could never pull from a pack)! It's NHL hockey in California and lots of gold, green and purple! Thanks for posting this near-50-year-old footage!

the best performance by a Team Canada goalie ever. MVP for Canada easy. Just noticing how big the eye holes are in his mask. Crazy.

Gotta love the white skates! Vintage

I'd forgotten Reggie Leech played for the Seals before becoming a superstar with the Flyers.

ROGATIEN VACHON IS MY IDOL

Meloche

Loved NHL Action show.

I wonder who the dumbass was to put a thumbs down on rogue vashon?

Is that Rogue Vachon in goal ...

We always called the Kings home uniforms 'pajamas'.

"SAVED BY VACHON" !!!!

best goalie in the nhl for 3 or 4 years in the mid seventies,'74-'77.

Before the 1972-73 season began, the California Golden Seals lost a lot of players to the WHA, which began operation in 1972-73.

Rogatien, rogatien

It's refreshing to watch stand up goalies play instead of today's goalies who go down on their knees more than a $ 20.00 hooker.

What a goalie he was. And what a great moustache !

0:24 is terrifying

I think that is my dentist at 1:10!

White skates LMAO

1973 Seals vs Kings , good seats available, LOL

WOW!!!!!
