Cant recall exactly, but was it 69/70, last half of the season he started wearing a mask or was it 70/71? .
I'm a little hazy on that too but leaning to 69/70. One of my first hockey memories was a back page of the NY Daily News with several photos of Eddie after being clocked between the eyes by a Bobby Hull slapshot, SANS MASK. Holding a towel to his face while being led off the ice. Incredible. That might have been the incident that spurred his wearing of the mask?
