I've been digging around on stock footage sites (Getty Images, for one), and I've come across several hockey clips. The best one I've found is historicfilms.com. There's a quite a bit of footage of O6 era games as well as this (starting at the 40:20 mark), apparently from 1919:

http://historicfilms.com/search/?q=VM-521b#p1t9308i0o5201.04

I am quite amazed by the clarity of the footage. No idea who the teams are though.

Interesting find. It's unfortunate the clip comes without any additional information.

Tokyo, Japan
Fun full game here, posted on YouTube a few months ago, of Edmonton at Calgary -- March 3rd, 1988. I watched this game live, and never since:


Calgary wins 7-4 at home (confusingly, they're wearing the 'road' uniforms).

Edmonton looks okay in the first 10 minutes, but then fall asleep until the end of the second period, and Calgary is up 4-1. Gretzky sets up the first three Oilers' goals, but his line and Messier's are both remarkably ineffective 5-on-5. (Messier drops the gloves with Roberts in the 2nd, though, which is fun.) Gretzky actually has a rather rough night -- he's playing on weird line combinations that don't really work, and is on the point for an Edmonton four-against-three power-play when Nieuwendyk intercepts a pass and goes one-on-one against Gretzky all the way from his blue-line to the Edmonton net. In the third, Gretzky gives one away in his own zone and Otto nearly scores. Wayne also gets hit (by Roberts?) at one point and his stick goes flying across the zone.

Lanny McDonald gets one early in the game, one of few he got by this point. Tonelli scores early and looks good, but then disappears. Suter is pretty good, MacInnis invisible. Nieuwendyk scores one and set on up too, but at about 1:21:50 he first gets brutally high-sticked in the face (ref. misses it), and then one second later gets blasted in the ankle with his teammates' slapshot! Rough night.

Anyway, this was the last game of the season-series, with Calgary winning it 4-3-1. However, Edmonton went on to sweep Calgary in the playoffs...
