This is far better picture quality than all the old Leaf games which look like they were shot around 1910.

Priceless Upload...Spasiba!!...A young Palmateer, M.Howe,Daley,Dennis Vervegaert,Steve Thomas,Bruce Boudreau...Bordeleau never really became the NHL player that many thought he would be.

+Larry Horricks I know

[@tonybrown8006]

Steve Thomas was nine years old when this game was played. This must be another Steve Thomas that I've never heard of.

These are the Marlies that would win the Memorial Cup at the end of the season. One of the players on that team is future Hall of Famer Mark Howe, who had won the Silver Medal with the United States at the Sapporo Olympics in February that year.

[@rangers199487]

Tubewings He is also the son of the legendary Gordie Howe!!!

Mike Palmateer would later in the Decade be Toronto's Premiere Netminder.

[@cleetorishanns5116]

Premier??..:)

[@cudaus1]

Great stuff! Thanks for doing it.

[@orbyfan]

Who televised this? Fred Sgambati was known for his work on CBC radio, and Stan Obodiac was the public relations man for the Toronto Maple Leafs and Maple Leaf Gardens.

[@skyemac8]

Augmented Marlies? Even so it was their dream team of 72 - 73. Memorial Cup champ too.

[@KMK7355]

Wonder what a 1972-73 US Jr Team would have looked like. Take Mark Howe off Toronto team and how does US do against Toronto? G - Lopresti -Warden D - Hangsleben - Langevin Chartraw - Walker Sargent - Serafini F Bolduc - Howe - W. Miller O'Neil - Talafous - Gilligan Schneider - Polich - Younghans Eruzione - Fleming - Carlson

[@SareaVak]

какой капустин,шалимов,мартынюк могут быть в 1972 году?может все таки 1979?

[@Andyvas375]

Самые обыкновенные. Капустину здесь 19 лет, остальным думаю столько же. Это молодёжка. Так что 1972

[@philgallagher7090]

+Sarea5761 Vak Александру Мартынюку было 27 лет на тот момент (кстати, он рекордсмен по количеству шайб, заброшенных в составе сборной в одном (официальном) матче: в игре со сборной ФРГ на чемпионате мира-73 в Москве он забил восемь голов.)Виктору Шалимову - 21 год,Сергею Капустину -19. Это была экспериментальная команда из молодежки (в основном).

[@SareaVak]

Phil Gallagher да просто за давностью лет запамятовал.я этот матч не помню.мартынюк уже здесь дядька.а вот его 8 шайб я помню.18-2,17-1 с немцами и 20-0 с поляками помню.и это говорит гигантской разнице в классе сборных того времени.сейчас такие счета представить себе сложно

[@cleetorishanns5116]

Cool seeing this.Some pretty weak "Gooltending" on both sides..LOL.
