I kid, York has a good mayor and some cool things going on, we are a pretty blue collar town though, don't look at us and definitely don't talk to us unless you're ready to throw down.

What is the killer part of that non-call is that the Flyers would've likely won game 6 and then headed home to the Spectrum for game 7. There's no way they're losing game 7 at home, especially in that era. Seriously though, look at Stickle standing there with his arms out to signal on side when 12 feet to his left is an Islander player who likely just skated by him. He ALREADY has his arms out BEFORE the puck even crosses the blue line! I'm now re #*$&ing irritated!

I posted this in another thread a while back. A retired NHL linesman told me this Leon Stickle goes around telling people that he didn’t cause the Flyers to lose the cup but instead started a dynasty. Chew on that for a while.

From what I have seen it hasn't been announced yet it will be a game time decision and I expect Ghost to play. Looking at the lineup it is strange see the Flyers have a #1 center making 4 mill a 3rd line center making 7 mill and a 3rd line center making 8 mill. Hhhhhhhmmmmm...

I was a 5th grader and we had to attend a 50th anniversary celebration for the grandparents of my neighbor across the street. It was being held at a hotel in Philly. Not wanting to miss the game my dad brought our brand new SONY Walkman radio. He also brought a single earpiece so he could listen relatively unnoticed. He looked like a secret service agent with his suit and single earpiece. I’m guessing some thought he was hotel security since we were fairly unknown among the guests. He kept coming over to me telling me how the scored yet again and we both celebrated quietly together knowing we were moving on to the next round. Sadly my dad has been gone for 20 years now but this is one of my favorite memories of the 23 years I got to spend with him. Awesome story bro!! God bless....
