If you're an old-time hockey fan

CBC just posted this retro clip of Jacques Plante, Glenn Hall, and Johnny Bower reminiscing.

I love Jacques' reply to Peter Gzowski (the interviewer, at least I think it is) about how many Vezina's he had won.

It blows my mind they played (at least the goalies) without masks...

Very cool clip Craig, thanks for that. Those were some of my hockey heroes when I was a kid.

Indeed, no helmets, no masks and guys like Maurice Richard and Gordon Howe firing slapshots at you!

I'll always remember being a kid and watching the Boston Bruins play with Gerry Cheevers in net. This was after goalies started wearing masks right (still no helmets though). He would put stitches on his mask where it got hit every time it got hit. Google him and have a look at his mask.........LOL
