Congratulations to the Chicago BlackHawks for winning their first Stanley Cup in forty-nine years. You earned it. But the Flyers had a truly magical playoff run.
I’m just going to supply some quality tunes before I make my last request for reader support for the month.
Yeah, that’s from the Stanley Theater on December 1st, 1979. You can skip ahead to track 10 if you want to hear something really special. I don’t supply average tunes, but only shit that is triumphant.
Many of you made generous donations already, but I have to make one more plea for support from y’all. It’s a tough economy and there’s not much advertising being sold these days. If you value an independent perspective, please consider making a contribution to the Frog Pond. I thank you in advance.
By the way, this was the first Stanley Cup I really watched consistently since the New York Rangers’ 1994 run. It was a really good matchup. It kind of rekindled my interest in hockey a bit. But the real fun begins soon with the World Cup. I can’t wait to watch the England v. United States matchup on Saturday afternoon.
What are you eagerly awaiting?
