True...I seem to recall (and I could be mistaken) that Denis Potvin was one of the first stars I remember seeing wearing a helmet. (I thought it looked odd on him, as if it weren’t fitted correctly)
I liked watching Rick Middleton, with his long hair yet a bit balding on top, rushing down the ice with his hair following him!
Boy, hockey sure has gone through a transformation. I guess all sports have.
I’m thinking Bill Goldsworthy wore one before him. Teddy Green, before that.
