    one reason i love youtube so much is that you can find all thoses 1950s stanley cup finals on video. rewatching the Rocket score is just the best

    At a certain point you can just say "you all know who wins the cup" and we all will 😂

    Probably not a good idea to have a drinking game based on taking a shot everytime THG says “Montreal is a bad matchup for Boston.”

    I met Gump Worsley in 1994, his battle scars where certainly visible!

    Chicago was so bad in the 1950's that the NHL had a charity auction for them just to save the team. The five other teams were "encouraged" to make excess players available to the BH's in straight cash deals so the team could improve enough to stay in business, which is how they got Eddie Litzenberger from the Canadiens.

    3:48 thus began the Red Wings franchise goalie and Stanley Cup drought(s)

    Glen Hall had the audacity of asking a hundred dollar bonus for winning the Calder. Detroit punished him by sending him to the minors and trading him to Chicago when Sawchuk unretired.

      I heard the problem was that Jack Adams asked Hall to stop associating with Ted Lindsay and Glenn told Adams rather vulgarly to mind his own business. So Adams screwed over his team to punish two of his best players.

    Shannon I would love to see you do a video revisiting the Tkachuk trade, today is the 2 year anniversary and I find that deal absolutely fascinating. I don’t think anybody saw it turning out the way that it did

    • @20thCenturyManTrad
      @20thCenturyManTrad 2 месяца назад +1

      I think you have to give it five years, before you can really know for sure who won, because 3 years can change the whole trajectory of the trade. It's unlikely, but it does happen.

    You should wear this Montreal gear for a review during the regular season at some point, if they win

    @kevaninthe4135 2 месяца назад +1

    I can imagine biting my nose off like the Wings did trading Lindsay and Hall. I guess I'm not a-hole enough to own a team.

    Which dynasty was better? Habs in the 50's or Habs in the 70's?

    • @denisepink8794

      50s

      Since a political dynasty is a sequence of rulers from the same family or house or clan, I think a sports dynasty should be defined as a sequence of teams (with different rosters) that won championships. The Canadiens of the '50s, '60s, and '70s would be all one dynasty.
      By this standard, the argument could be made that the New England Patriots were not a dynasty, because they won with the same quarterback and head coach.

      ok if the habs get the Rocket back also

  • @timar6868
    @timar6868 2 месяца назад +5

    I may be a minority here but if you won a cup b4 the expansion..who cares. it really isn't a big deal as there was only 6 teams so you only needed to be better than 5 teams oh no; and there was no free agency so if you sucked you usually stayed suck for a few years and if you were good you stayed good. not a big deal. the real stanley cup winners began after the expansion draft when you really had to earn it.

      Every Cup matters.

    • @bdonaghu
      @bdonaghu 2 месяца назад +5

      I'd go another step further, and Cups won before the WHA absorption in 1979-80 could have an asterisk with them. Once the league hit 21 teams and realigned into new divisions, there was more weight added to those champions. Just my opinion.

    • @bigjohn08865
      @bigjohn08865 2 месяца назад +18

      If it was so much easier to win a Cup when there were only 6 teams in the league how come Boston and New York didn't win a Cup in the entire Original Six era (1942-67)?

    • @5elmts
      @5elmts 2 месяца назад +1

      Tell that to Maple Leafs fans 😂. But these guys didn't fly, they barely had protections and they had a day job or at least off season job. So there are more teams today, but players have a much easier life because there are so many job opportunities and facilities. But that's just my opinion

    • @kokocaptainqc
      @kokocaptainqc 2 месяца назад +4

      all i hear is a sour fan of either Toronto or Boston that could never difgest that the habs have 24 cups
