  • Howatt always scared me when I watched him as a kid. He seemed like some pyscho biker dude that would be in jail for murder if he wasnt playing hockey.

  • where's the mullet? I thought he had one since he was 8 yrs old

  • This was only a couple of years after the Leafs upset the Isles in the playoffs, so before this series, Leafs owner Harold Ballard said the Isles were "Chumps, not champs", which is why the Isles laid it so heavy on the Leafs. The most one sided series I ever saw.

  • The Leafs got absolutely destroyed in this series. Remember it well.

  • @bustballz You took the words out of my mouth..Saleski did not have the coordination to beat his own shadow let alone take Gillies. To believe that, he must of heard the audio announcing of that fight on a Flyers radio broadcast.

  • @mrceebees14 minor correction, Leafs lost that '81 series by scores of 9-2, and 5-1 at Nassau Coliseum, and then lost the 3rd game at home in Maple Leaf Gardens 6-1 to get swept 3-straight. Total goals were 20-4 for the Islanders. Your scores made the Leafs look worse defensively, but also made their offense or the Isles D look worse by giving the Leafs 5 goals for that series even though they just had 4..lol

  • @JosephLupoli ... what?

  • Gary Howatt--all of 5'8" and 170 lbs, routinely beating the hell out of nearly every enforcer in the NHL!

  • looked like noogies from Saturday night live..... 

  • Good to see Melrose with normal looking hair--unlike the freaky, greasy shit he has now.

  • @Love4SK Isles sold out every playoff game back then and it wasn't easy to get a regular season ticket either. Check your facts. That "dump" of an arena has seen four more cup winners than Maple Leaf Gardens has seen since the last time Hubert Humphrey was a serious presidential contender.

  • OK hugfest, WITHOUT WINNer.

    They threw several shots each man.

    No big damage done.

    Melrose is a good guy i think.
