The hockey world is mourning today. Ken Dryden, the Hall of Fame goaltender who backstopped the Montreal Canadiens’ 1970s dynasty, has passed away at the age of 78.
Nice work here, Frenchy…….. This guy was money and to realize he had a lifetime .922 SPG with the goalie equipment those days is crazy. And indeed, in an era where goalies would come out near the bottom of the circle to cut down angles and play an athletic style (there was no blocking style and saves were made thru athleticism) this guy might have been the first “technical” goalie ever.
