NHL The final day of the 1970 regular season was a gong show

[Fenway]

Those 9 months from August 1978 to May 1979 must've been the lowest point to be a Boston fan

Stingley gets paralyzed, Sox collapse to end the year and lose in a heartbreaker to the Yanks, Pats see Sullivan and Fairbanks's drama probably cost them their season, the Celtics were absolutely dysfunctional under John Y. Brown and it almost led Red to go to the Knicks, then the Bruins lose their own heartbreaker to the Habs.

Hard to think of a worse sequence than that.

Terrible times for sure. With the Bruins we were shocked. Thought that they had the Habs but knew that whenever we played Montreal, there was a greater chance of heartbreak than victory.
