1973 Stanley Cup Finals

I have been to exactly one Stanley Cup final game in my lifetime, and it was way back in 1973--another NHL finals meeting between two original six teams. I was nine years old (almost ten) and was crushed that the Canadians beat the Blackhawks to win the Cup. It was Game 7...on home ice in Chicago...



40 years later I can't afford the tickets to see the game, and it's not on my cable system, so I'll be watching it from a neighborhood tavern tonight.
