Ooof, this list brought back a bad memory. I remember sitting in the back seat of my Pop's car when I heard over the radio that Eric Vail of the Flames won over Pierre Larouche of the Penguins. I wanted to punch the window in the car door, LOL!

It just occurred to me that Steve Vickers is wearing the 'C' in his 1972-73 OPC card. Vic Hadfield was the captain during 1971-74 and the alternates included Brad Park, Rod Gilbert and Jim Nielson. Hadfield missed a few games in 1972-73, but it seems highly unlikely that the Rangers would have given the 'C' to a rookie temporarily. Maybe Vickers was wearing Hadfield's sweater during the photo shoot and they airbrushed the "11" from the sleeve.

Sorry about that Gunny, didn't mean to bring back bad memories there!

I noticed that too Falcon. Thought that it was strange but didn't know if he actually was the captain or not.
