Chicago Blackhawks - Boston Bruins - March 24th, 1966
NHL gives the victory to Eddie Johnston
GWG is the second Boston goal; Wayne Rivers at 27:17 of the game.
NHL summary link above has Parent playing 27:41 and Johnston 32:19.
Port Huron Times Herald:
Other sources say “eighth minute of second period” but 7:41 exactly conforms to the NHL summary.
MY CONCLUSION: If Rivers’ goal was truly scored ay 27:17, then Parent was in net for it, and deserves the win, not Johnston.
Unless! If the time of Rivers’ goal is incorrect (and it was later) then Johnston may deserve the win. All box summaries I see show 27:17 (including the Chicago Tribune), although the Tribune is a bit more vague about it in the summary (weird to mention Parent’s injury, then Rivers’ goal, then Johnston’s big saves, although it could just be weird writing).
