@werqa123 Why did they have 2 city names? i mean why were they Oakland and also California? Were both Golden Seals or was it just the California Golden Seals? And 1 last q: is Oakland close to San Jose, would old Seals fans support the Sharks?

Love this clip. Saw all but nine Seals' home games during their existence, including a few at the SF Cow Palace and both playoff series. Nothing but great memories. Has season seat in section 120, 2 rows in front of Schultz, who was always gracious in drawing Snoopy, Woodstock and/or Sparky on the program covers. Still a Seals fan!

@MrWillc1975 Wikipedai adds Larry Wright and a 1st rounder but I had forgotten that part of it.

@MrWillc1975 I believe they got Al MacAdam for Reggie Leach.

The all-white skates were actually the LAST version of colored skates for the Seals. They first had yellow skates with green trim and and also those colors reversed, green with yellow trim. The following season the skates were white with green trim, then finally all-white with green laces.
so the flower could have been a seal instead of a canadien?

As a Bruins fan, the best thing I remember about those Seals games is having to stay up till 10:30(EST) to watch the game...which wouldn't end till 1:30-2:00. They were always high scoring afairs the The Seals, sometimes, were competative. Ah those were the days!
P.S.- In the video footage, the guy who scored the first goal (Ted Hanson), he's not 1 of the 3 Hanson brothers in the slapshot movie ??? Is he?
