Yep, I got to see Hull and Mikita play in 1967, first year of expansion. The last game I saw, was 09-10 season in San Jose, when they won their first Stanley Cup in a ton of years. Hull and Mikita had a feud with the owner, but he died and left his son in charge, who has a different attitude than his old man. He actually wants to win, unlike his dad. As a result, Hull and Mikita are regulars at the UC again. It was nice to see them blow out Montreal. I disliked them more than any other team.
