ruxpin Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Great article, @flyercanuck. Thanks for posting. This news saddened me. He was one of my favorite Flyers back then. My only complaint was that he had a tendency to pause too long to wind up. He had a windmill of a back swing. But enjoyed the hell out of watching him anyway. A career, and a life, that ended way too soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sarsippius Posted September 10, 2016 Share Posted September 10, 2016 Been a bit indisposed, just hearing about this news. We're losing alot of the guys from the Flyer teams of my youth recently, right around the time that I'm really starting to feel my age. From the era of great nicknames, RIP Count Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jammer2 Posted October 1, 2016 Share Posted October 1, 2016 WWHHHHHHAAATTTTTTT.......Good Lord....just saw this right this second. What very, very sad news. Loved that guy, was real young when he played, but looked up to him. R.I.P Count!!!!r How said is this, our beloved 70's Flyers falling like flies...really hits home how old I am AND also, how these guys are dying WAY before 70....gotta wonder if all those years without helmets played a part, huh?

Especially the first part. Between hockey players and actors/musicians I grew up with... By the way, Jaclyn Smith will be 71 this month. If that doesn't make you feel old...
