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.

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 😢

Thanks for sharing that...I was wondering why a certain (apparently/purposely forgotten Kings' announcer) wasn't doing this summary? Ironically, he came from the Seals to do the Kings 1972/'73 season and was unceremoniously dumped thereafter-when Bob Miller came on. All I can tell you is that Roy Storey was always nice to us kids when we pestered him at the booth. At the old Forum in Inglewood, the broadcaster's booth was center ice, a little over half way up...and you caught walk right up and talk to them...not like today with their exalted towers on a seperate floor way above the ice. By the way, Dan Avey was the color man-one of the best, ever. rl

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.

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.
