Baratheon Posted September 26, 2023 Share Posted September 26, 2023 Back in the 70s was there an older generation that romanticized this era? Did you hear comments like "Phil Esposito just couldn't hang with the guys back then. Hockey sure ain't what it used to be!" Or is that a more recent phenomenon?

Hockey is always evolving especially with technology, for some it’s for the better, for others not so much. I must admit I sure miss a good hour long bench brawl every now and again.

Simply curious if there were similar “grumpy old man” sentiments back then. Were there many folks who disliked 70s hockey because to them it didn’t live up to the hockey of the 30s? Like a Don Cherry of their day lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My favorite was the mid ‘80s to mid “90s, seemed to be a good balance between skill and goonery, although both are fun to watch, it’s the balance that made that time exciting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
