To hear Danny Gallivan is like drinking fine wine. The best of all time. What a rivalry!! I miss this in hockey, the Forum, the organ, just the atmosphere. You can feel it!! Oh those were the days!!
Remember my Dad used to get so upset at the fans standing and blocking the camera when fights broke out...he he... greatest hockey town...used to fill the form for Montreal junior Canadian games....
Thank you so much for the upload ! I remember this like it was last night. I can remember how emotional I was during that series . Hell, I got emotional watching this now 45 years later... Even knowing what would happen! Peace and health and love, brother👍
Wow to hear Danny and that organ. It sends me back to Upstate NY, Hockey Night in Canada, on a cold Saturday night in January 1973. I was 12 years old. So cool. Gotta love TH-cam.
No netting behind the goal, no glass along the benches or officials, human goal judges, no ads, one less referee, less padding, no helmet rules. And one game per week on TV.
I'm in my mid 50's, I grew up watching this rivalry. It was the best rivalry in hockey. (After the Nordiques Canadiens, but that didn't last nearly long enough). Now the NHL has ruined all that. There are no more rivalries in Hockey. To Hell with every team playing every team. I would like to see half the NHL play amongst each other for the season and the other half the same. The winners of each side plays in the finals. If you're in your 30's and younger then you haven't seen Hockey being played by 2 teams that Hate each other. Now imagine them playing at least 8 times (like it used to be) per year. You'd see some great Hockey! Bring Back The Rivalries!!
@@rainbow666ify I'm picking MTL Bos because of the long history. There's been so much hatred and bad blood for so long ! I agree with you the Battle of Alberta is another great one. That is just as wild at times. If they had as long a history as my pick, then it would be on a par as mine , if not better. ! As for Detroit Colorado , it's another good one, but it was more in the times of Lemieux, Roy, Forsberg, etc. vs Fedorov, McCarty, Shanahan etc. This would make for a good discussion! I personally think the meanest rivalry was MTL. Que. ! Unfortunately that ended way too early!! Anyways, it's just my opinion. Cheers!
@Stelios Kontos I'm more talking about the 70's to the late 90's. I agree the rivalry isn't as intense anymore , thank you NHL, but I can definitely see that someone who didn't see the 70's or 80's would think that way. I would think that way too if I was your age, but throughout the 70's and 80's they played each other almost every year. There was real bad blood! You should check videos on it . Cheers!
Couldn’t wait for the games on tv in the afternoons on Sat or Sunday. It was back in 1968 that I became a Bruins fan. I kept score for the games I saw like you do in baseball. Goals, assists, penalties, blocked shots, and everything else. Some of the Boston v Montreal sheets were more than one side of the page and dominated by major penalties. We had an IHL team in town too and they played hard and rough too. Great times never to be seen again. 😢
Cashcrop54 The Boston Braves also played at The Garden. Terry O’Reilly played for them before coming up to the Bruins Terry lived in my neighborhood in an apartment with Fred O’Donnell in Revere. Terry would come out and play street hockey and stick ball with us 8 year old kids
even though he's in the hall of fame, robinson is vastly underrated historically. big. tough. super-smart. long arms. had to be impossible to fight, but knew when to throw his weight around and when not to. top 3-4-d-guy easy in my book.
Love the Habs but tough to see Bobby Schmautz take a shot like afterall he just died a few weeks ago. He wasn't the biggest player but he played with a big heart. May he rest in eternal peace.
I remember in the sixties I was living in New Jersey and with a transistor radio I could get 3 games on the radio of the original 6 teams ,and I would switch back and forth and listen to the fights,I think the toughest guy back then was John Ferguson with Montreal
Gainey, Robinson, Lapointe, Savard....were not known for their fighting but I don't think I remember them ever taking a beating from anyone. Robinson throwing Schultz around like a rag doll was one the greatest moments in Hockey history....Gainey destroying Seleski another. You did not want to get Robinson mad...he could single handedly take a game over both physically and with his end to end rushes.
I see Al Sims getting some ice time in that last scrimmage. He came to play for my team, the Fife Flyers in Scotland and was classy. I got to know him too and he was a lovely guy.
The Forum organist was a woman back then, I believe. I can’t recall her name, but she was followed by another woman who’s still playing at Habs games today.
Grew up watching games at the Forum. The organist would play the theme to the old "Batman" series just before the start of a fight. At that time, they had a trumpeter by the name of Dutchie about 15 rows up from the Canadiens bench.
Thank you so much!!!! This made my day. I started playing in the 1960s, outdoors of course, and I miss those days so much. As for the nasty comments about “Grapes”.... there is much I could reply with, but “those people” have no understanding outside of their little bubble. I will only say this, if I am picking a team that I am going to go into a gang-infested dark alley with, Grapes would be very high on my list😃
I watched every game of this series. A tremendous battle between two outstanding teams. Have always loathed Canadiens, but those squads of the late 1970s were tough to beat. Tip o' the cap to 'em.
I get a rush every time I hear Danny’s Voice. He’s the all time best . Awesome memories watching this classic match between the Bruins and Habs ...The fonz
Wow I am 61 years old and I remember these games ,and wonder what happened to the NHL, and the only thing that stands out for me is a man called Gary Bettman "The destroyer of Canadian Hockey". Boooo!
freeze frame at 11:23...above the referee pointing to the right ...is a stunning platinum blonde Loni Anderson lookalike in a red and white dress. She was always behind the net on the televised games from the Forum as I recall. Am I imagining this guys? We used to watch Saturday nights as much for her as the games. I figured she was there to distract the opposing goalies...
I think it hurt the game by not seeing the full character of the player. Imagine a "Rocket" Richard or Mr. Hockey skating down the ice with a helmet. It took some of the flair away.
I've lived my whole life in Montreal and I'm almost 60. I've watched the Canadiens at the Forum since the late 60's and yes it happened so often a fan would stand up in front of the camera and block the view of a fight or an exciting scoring chance. I remember being so pissed some times. Haha ! Still I saw the best Hockey (Canadiens in the 70's ) , ask your Dad. The Forum was still the greatest though.
I was born and raised in Montreal, but became a Bruins fan during the early 70’s, mostly to bug my buddies. Being at the Forum and watching this rivalry was some of my best years, often there were more fights in the stands than there were on the ice.
@@williamberry4615 I’m an English Canadian and grew up watching the Habs with my father. I saw Orr and the whole team and decided to support that team. When I moved to Toronto, I did the unthinkable for a Montrealer, I started to support the Leafs.
@Craig O I would say that Gary Howatt or Mel Bridgman were next on this list. What I meant was if there was a bench clearing brawl and the linesman were tied up in another fight, if you got paired up with Jonathan he would basically try to kill you without any instigation. So you had better be able to handle yourself because you were on your own. Same with Howatt but Jonathan was a better fighter. Wensink was a good fighter but I got the impression that once he beat you up that he would let up.
I think I'd fight Jonathan before I'd fight O'Reilly. O'Reilly was more savage and his left was deadly , even though Jonathan was the better fighter. If that makes sense. Cheers.
@@capncanuck2064 I don't disagree with you if it was an isolated fight with linesman ready to break it up once I was losing the fight (the moment O'Reilly dropped his gloves!). What I originally meant was I don't think the guys I mentioned would let up on you once you were down during a brawl where there were no linesman free to break up your particular fracas. I base this mostly on Jonathan carving up Dave Lewis (nope, it was Bob Lorimer) during a brawl with the Islanders and hitting Pierre Bouchard when he was down and out, Howatt going ape shit during a Bruin-Islander brawl, and Bridgman cutting up Mark Heaslip after Heaslip let him up twice during a brawl with the Rangers. Hey, I could be completely wrong about O'Reilly and Wensink letting up once they clobbered you. Luckily there is not much chance I will find out one way or another! Stay healthy!
@@miked6335 I hear you. The only thing I'm 100% certain about is I'd get killed by any of these guys , and the second I'd drop the gloves with any of these guys my next memory would be someone standing over me calling my name. Lol! O'Reilly is my all time favorite player and I think he would stop pounding on me as soon as I hit the ice. One thing about most of these guys is that they respect the code. Still it's a fun conversation to have. Stay Safe and Cheers !
That's revisionist history... sport! Boston's Gerry Cheevers could shut-out any opponent on any given day. And it's not like the Bruins didn't win their share of games against those Habitants - because they did and you know it!
That was Milbury's slash. He was a crap defenceman. A worse coach. Even worse as a GM. I could never understand how long he stayed in the league as a coach and a GM. O'Reilly was a far better coach and if I remember so was Wayne Cashman.
Karl Q Kent it’s the stupid camera placement. If you’ve ever attended a game like this you should know that the whole crowd is standing 75% of the time and no one has a clue where the cameras are. Certainly no one is thinking about the TH-cam keyboard jockey not being able to see the action 40 years into the future.
Channel 22, they showed all the Boston teams. The Bruins , Celtics, and RedSox. Saturday and Sunday afternoon Hockey at the Gahden! Man, those were the days!
The Canadiens of the mid to late70's dominated the Bruins both in Hockey and the fighting! The Bruins then and now have always been known for their cheap shots! Danny Gallivan and Dick Irvin had to be the best announcing duo in the history of hockey! my opinion 🦂🍻
"There is no fighting in the playoffs" This was the Stanley Cup Final, Game 5, series tied 2-2 Also the last time the Bruins played the Habs in the finals
2:56 Schmautz was way too predictable. Tremblay goes for the collar grab with the left hand and every time Schmautz lower his hands to block it. As soon as Tremblay noticed the pattern, ha gave him a quick right cross to the jaw and it was over in one punch.
Most peeps dont realise it cus he didnt do it much but guy lapointe could go with the best of them.i watched him beat cashman damn near to death one night and cashman was no pyshover
Love to see the Canadiens dynasty play the lslanders dynasty n or the Oilers dynasty in their prime.Can u imagine how great that hockey would be, throw in the Bruins back then.Tough gritty fast hard-hitting skilled hockey no comparison to today's ballerinas, might as be no contact for the most part.
I'm surprised how modern some of those helmets look on the outside. Not much has changed the past 45 years in that sense. Plenty of old school 'Jofa' helmets were used in the league much later than this, that surely had far less protection.
I get so jacked up just watching these videos and remembering all these games as a kid. Wonderful times.
To hear Danny Gallivan is like drinking fine wine. The best of all time. What a rivalry!! I miss this in hockey, the Forum, the organ, just the atmosphere. You can feel it!! Oh those were the days!!

I've watched a lot of these hockey greatest fighters videos. No matter how tough the player was, no one messed too much with Larry Robinson.
Word around the league was..Don’t make Big Bird mad. Apparently.
But I believe it.
.. ij .8 ir I
. 9
Robinson was one of a kind. A super Canadian.
At that time he was a giant in the league at 6"4
dave shultz one punched him to the ice.

Edward Fantasia that’s awesome! You was a lucky kid! Thanks for the info on Terry! He was another great Bruin!!
I love the disinterest Robinson shows Milbury around 11:45. Basically holding on to Robinson and Larry just moving him around as needed.
even though he's in the hall of fame, robinson is vastly underrated historically. big. tough. super-smart. long arms. had to be impossible to fight, but knew when to throw his weight around and when not to. top 3-4-d-guy easy in my book.
A great NHL playoff series. One of the best!
Is this the one LA Fleur won it in overtime? Felt my heart ripped out.
Love the Habs but tough to see Bobby Schmautz take a shot like afterall he just died a few weeks ago. He wasn't the biggest player but he played with a big heart. May he rest in eternal peace.
Classy Habs fan. From Boston.
Respect to Schmautz.
Tremblay gave Schmautz what he was asking for.
Came for the rough stuff. Stayed for the organ.
ha ha ha
oh my, how i miss the both aspects so badly.
Star Wars theme during the fights = classic!
I remember in the sixties I was living in New Jersey and with a transistor radio I could get 3 games on the radio of the original 6 teams ,and I would switch back and forth and listen to the fights,I think the toughest guy back then was John Ferguson with Montreal
Timothy Flanagan ... I remember the original six! Growing up, it was “Hockey Night in Canada”. I agree the game was so much better then.
Hockey is a beautiful game. It doesn't need goons, like you
These linesman back then were iron men for restraining these gladiators
Those Habs teams had the skills and the brawn to hang with any team, even the big, bad Bruins and the Broad Street Bullies.
I wish the video could have gone on for a few more minutes.
Oh boy - those were the days of great NHL action.

He coached the San Jose Sharks for one season. It was a great year for fights, but a bad one for wins.
The irony of that happy-go-lucky organ bouncing away while the brutal slug fest bleeds away on the ice is such a beautiful thing to behold.......
I love this old footage. I love the cheerful organ during the skirmish. Reminds me of Slapshot. Hilarious.
Jeffrey Walker the entire game reminded me of slap shot!! Lmao. That’s when hockey was hockey! Sweet!!
The Forum organist was a woman back then, I believe. I can’t recall her name, but she was followed by another woman who’s still playing at Habs games today.

Montreal had more than just skill.They were hard on the puck & tough to play against.
Larry Robinson was punishing.

Channel 22, they showed all the Boston teams. The Bruins , Celtics, and RedSox. Saturday and Sunday afternoon Hockey at the Gahden! Man, those were the days!
Don Cherry made hockey a beautiful thing, didn't he?
He never won shit
What a great response of Mario Tremblay at 3:30
When men were men,moustaches and all!!! Love this
Danny gallivan was classic he put excitement in the game
The Canadiens of the mid to late70's dominated the Bruins both in Hockey and the fighting! The Bruins then and now have always been known for their cheap shots!
Danny Gallivan and Dick Irvin had to be the best announcing duo in the history of hockey!
my opinion 🦂🍻
That Tremblay would probably make a great coach....
mario tremblay punching smaultz lights out..!!!!
The way Ron Stickle manhandles Tremblay at 3:40. Stronger man than I remember.
Incredible footage!!!

90s not as much
Great camera work in Montreal if you happen to be a barber!
Do you have one with Schonfeld vs Cashman?
"There is no fighting in the playoffs"
This was the Stanley Cup Final, Game 5, series tied 2-2
Also the last time the Bruins played the Habs in the finals
Mind you, Don Cherry is an idiot and a goon. He knew his team couldn't win so he sent the bar fight out.
Larry Robinson WOW
How many Habs fans look at Tremblay and still hate him for driving Roy out
There are quite a few future coaches and GM's in this game. Who knew, then?
John D'Amico was an ironman. He was the best. RIP
Nobody squatted like John D'Amico!!!
Vraiment une autre époque mais... quelle rivalité!
Les CHampions contre les goofs.

I was 5 in 1971 rookie Dryden vs Bobby Orr and company.
... and Orr didn't score a single goal in the 5th, 6th, or 7th games in the '71 playoff series..... Orr's Bruins NEVER beat Montreal in the playoffs.
2:56 Schmautz was way too predictable. Tremblay goes for the collar grab with the left hand and every time Schmautz lower his hands to block it. As soon as Tremblay noticed the pattern, ha gave him a quick right cross to the jaw and it was over in one punch.
Most peeps dont realise it cus he didnt do it much but guy lapointe could go with the best of them.i watched him beat cashman damn near to death one night and cashman was no pyshover
@Craig O well you spell pretty well and left no doubt on the question of your ignorance.
Back when TV cameras didn't have a clear line of sight.
Loved that Tremblay
My take from this clip - you didn't want to fuck with Mario Tremblay back in the day. Also Larry Robinson - cool as a cucumber.
Back in the days before you could prop a camera up above peoples heads

Love to see the Canadiens dynasty play the lslanders dynasty n or the Oilers dynasty in their prime.Can u imagine how great that hockey would be, throw in the Bruins back then.Tough gritty fast hard-hitting skilled hockey no comparison to today's ballerinas, might as be no contact for the most part.
I'm surprised how modern some of those helmets look on the outside. Not much has changed the past 45 years in that sense. Plenty of old school 'Jofa' helmets were used in the league much later than this, that surely had far less protection.
I miss Danny Gallivan calling out "a blistering blast from the point!"
And the Savardian Spinarama!
.... and plenty of those times.. were shots by Bobby HULL.
Listen to the Organ player F''n Epic!!!
Man, Milbury sucked as a player too.
Brutal hack as an excuse for a player...
HAHA! He's a hack announcer (or whatever you want to call that) and he was a hack player!!!!
@Willie Gordon doesn't detract from the fact that he was a hack.
@Willie Gordon ....had over 100 fighting majors, and he lost 'em all 😂
@Willie Gordon You're the only person in hockey history who has called Lupien his favourite player. Even his mom preferred Robinson.
Gary Bergman has taken the soul out of hockey.
Newell was among the 10 MOST INCOMPETENT referees in NHL history. Why he worked this series, I'll never understand it.
Is that the same Milbury who is a hockey analyst on NBC sports?
Yes
The Team of Danny and Dick was GREAT!
Don't mess with big bird. Just ask Dave Schultz. I am giving away my age.
The way the game was played before the pc crowd got hockey and figure skating combined..
70's HABS Ruled then - Didn't get pushed around either - Dished it out too - Danny Galivan's play by play the Best 🏆🏆🏆🏆😎
Leon Stickle was like a bouncer, manhandled guys
Kevin Collins was like a bouncer as well.
Bruins still a dirty team so nothing has changed really.
Every team is dirty.
The Bruins have always been a team that could dish it out and not take it. Because of that, they didn’t win shit in the late seventies.
