  2. This is such a cool piece of history. I have older Kings fan friends who remember attending this. I was 3 at the time. But the following season I went to my first Kings game, so I can say I saw the Great One in Black and White.

  3. I was there! Terrible event. The ice had so many ruts in it players were complaining they would get hurt.

    The spectacle of it was the whole point but still…not awesome.
