‘61 Hawks!!!!! Nesterenko, Maki, Kenny W. Stash, Bobby etc. etc. etc. Geeze what a year!!! The NHL’s ‘Original 6’, (those years from 1950-1966), was it’s best era in my opinion. Then the ‘67’-’72 6 year span with the Big Bad Bruin’s Espo and Bobby Orr, the hated Habs, (Especially that monster John Ferguson, remember when he picked a fight with Hull when Bobby had a mask on for a broken jaw, ‘69 or so?), at the front bringing in expansion.

Oh, I remember most all those Hawks from the ‘60s and early ‘70s: Bobby Hull, Stan Mikita, Pierre Pilote, Eric Nesterenko, Glenn Hall, Red Hay, Phil Esposito (yes, first on the Hawks), Doug Mohns, Kenny Wharram, Chico Maki, Pat Stapleton, Tony Esposito, Dennis Hull, Keith Magnuson, Lou Angotti, Jim Pappin, Pit Martin, Coach Billy Reay, broadcaster Lloyd Pettit. . . . I’m sure I’m leaving some guys out.

I remember when Detroit would have their goon, Bryan "Bugsy" Watson, shadowing Bobby Hull all the time. Well, one time the Golden Jet had had enough, and he just let Bugsy have it!

I think Bobby Hull might still be the most exciting athlete I've ever seen. The speed on his rushes, the power on his slap shots!
