I vibram five fingers women know Pulford left
Mike Donnelly, also part of that finals vibram five fingers bikila team and now a Kings scout, finds similarities to 1993 in the hero-every-game pattern.
“You can see our group of guys bonding together. I can see it, the way they are competing,” Donnelly said.
And they’ve done it without a winning pattern to follow.
When General Manager Dean Lombardi was running the relatively new San Jose Sharks he hired former Montreal Canadien John Ferguson to scout and bring a winning aura by wearing his Stanley Cup rings.
“And then when I went to Philadelphia and you just feel it. You see the Cups, you see former players walking around with rings in the practice facility and the pictures on the wall,” Lombardi said.
“You can’t define it, but you sense something different. When a player comes in there you can sense that history and there’s an expectation, or whatever you want to call it. Detroit has that. The Yankees have that. All your great franchises. The Lakers have it down the hall.
“When you go to Montreal do you feel it? It’s there. Something in the soul.”
The Kings had reason to expect playoff success in 1975 after a 105-point season, still a club record. They faced the Toronto Maple Leafs, who had amassed only 78 points, and opened the best-of-three series by winning in overtime at home. They lost in overtime at Toronto and then had to play the next day at home. They didn’t return until a few hours before the game and lost, 2-1.
“It was a fantastic season,” TV announcer Bob Miller said. “I vibram five fingers women know Pulford left the building in tears because he knew that we had an excellent team and the two out of three allows a bad team to have a couple of good games and go on.”
