In an interview, former teammate and honorary pallbearer at Horton’s funeral, Eddie Shack, said that Horton was “so proud of that car. He came up to me and said, ‘Shackie, look at my car … Listen to the sound of the engine. Listen to that power.' ”
Iconic image of Eddie Shack (#23 in white). A Toronto Maple Leaf who also played for the Sabres expansion team.
I remember the Seals had the came colors as the Oakland A’s down to the white shoes (skates). If I remember correctly they were briefly owned by Charley Finley (the A’s owner).
From that picture it looks like Shack could have done the choreography for the Hanson brothers.
