Slap Shot presented Ogie Ogilthorpe as fiction, but he was real. Known as one the most outrageous goons of all time, we present to you Bill "Goldie" Goldthorpe, with Bob Costas

I was coachin' in Omaha in 1948 and Eddie Shore sends me this guy who was a terrible masturbator, you know, couldn't control himself. Why, he would get deliberate penalties so he could get over in the penalty box all by himself and damned if he wouldn't... you know...

Growing up playing hockey in the OHL and professionally I think I've seen this movie over 300 times on our bus trips. Ogie was always an idol. So amazing to hear that Bob Costas was his broadcaster. What a story

I was a manager at a motel where the dusters stayed at in the 70'S. I became a mother to most of them except for the "bear" .Goldie would come over and have tea with me. He would tell me about his mother and other private parts of his life. He was no where like the Goldie here. One day he wants to get some sun, He took some towels and placed them on the roof of his old van, then climbed up and lay there . I was upstairs and called out to him and laughed as no one knew he was there but me. Eddie Pizunski , was another one, fighting on the ice. Because of the fighting every one went to the games. It made it interesting. Billy Gratton was at the apartment everyday to drink tea and they all watched the soaps .So many memories.

@peterlee4682 4 жыл бұрын

He was called up to the Minnesota Fighting Saints in the '73-'74 playoffs; 3 games, no goals, no assists, 25 penalty minutes. Was shot by a drug dealer in 1980 when he intervened for an old girlfriend, resulting in kidney and urinary tract damage that pretty well ended his pro hockey career. Needless to say he got into a lot of bar fights...he isn't huge so a fair number of boozed up patrons would convinced themselves he wasn't THAT tough....to their cost.

They used it to cut down their twigs " wooden sticks" because new ones only came in their unmodified length. Each player has a set stick length that they use, due to their height and preference. Longer sticks tend to be used by defense for their length in poke checking and they gave defense better slappers from the blue line or point. While shorter ones were favored by offense for stick handling, wrist shots, and snapshots. It's not like baseball where bats come from the factory, ready to go. Hockey sticks, back in those days, required to be cut to the players preference and they had to take a torch to the blade and make their own curv. That is also why in the USA hockey rulebook, hockey stick curves have to be within a certain parameter in order to be legal. Some players would give it such a wicked curve, that ref's would have to measure them on the ice or you would get tossed in the sin bin.
