wow, this really took off. And did I kooked for throwing Eruzione's name out there?!?! hahaha, i never said he was a "great" just that his name is known among people that dont know hockey, because he scored that goal.
But Mike Bossy? Damn. I grew up in NY around that time in the 80s when the Islanders were a fuckin legendary team. Bossy, LaFontaine, Potvin, Trottier, Smith. That was when Potvin had gotten a domestic violence charge or something, and the other teams fans used to yell "Beat your wife, Potvin, beat your wife". It was kind of fucked up...
