FSN Pittsburgh just ran a nice little feature on Bylsma and Blake's time at BG in the late 80's during the first intermission of the Pens/Sharks game. They had some really great old WTOL footage of some Blake goals and had Bylsma talking about his time at the hockey house, and Blake making him do the dishes and change the TV channels for him when he was a freshman. It was pretty amazing to see those shots of the Ice Arena packed and absolutely rocking. I hope we can get back to that point some day.

Is there an online link? (HOPE SO!!) I would LOVE to see that!!!

Hopefully I'll be able to find one. FSN sometimes archives their intermission features on their site, and there's always the chance somebody will youtube it. I'll keep an eye out.

It's up!

Nice but inaccurate in 1989 Brian maclellan won the cup with the Calgary flames

Inaccuracies aside, that was a FREAKIN' AWESOME feature!!!! I can't wait for those kinds of days to come back...fun times at the rink....each and every game!!!!! God, I LOVE FALCON HOCKEY!!!!!! That video reminded me why!!!

Awesome - thanks, Bill!

What a great interview! It was a blast seeing Blake's slap shots from the point again. Those were the days.

and will be again in the very near future!

Yep. And not quite as classy as you, apparently....

Oh, and I don't "gotta love" anything. Except maybe my wife. And I'm sure there's even a loophole there, somewhere.
