    Default Who is this!!!???

    I was watching a game with my pops last year and this commercial came on and we paused the screen and could not figure out who this player is.
    I searched and searched and for some reason never thought to ask on here!
    Who is this?

    Rep to the winner!

    I'll go with Gilles Gilbert, Boston's starting goalie in the 1974 Cup.
    This is from his 1974-1975 O-Pee Chee card, which would be photographed in 1974.


    I'm assuming the handshake line is from the Bruins 1974 cup loss to the Flyers.

    I don't know the answer but that seems like enough reasoning for me!

    So did you have a hunch that it was Gilbert to begin with, or did you just fiure out the approximate years, based on things like colour TV and the fact the players arent; wearing helmets, and try and track him down that way?

    No - I don't know Gilbert by face recognition.
    I think the only ol Flyers & Bruins I could recognize would be Parent, Clarke, Cheevers (by mask! LOL), Esposito...

    I was born in '77 and started following hockey in about '85.
    My family lineage (parents, grandparents) are not sports fans at ALL.
    I'm a self-made sports fanatic who got into hockey (and the other four major sports, soccer included) by myself.
    But, unfortunately, this means I had no tutelage (word?) into the olden days of hockey.

    But my pattern recognition skills are high, so I can put puzzles together fast.
    Flyers/Bruins, Stanley Cup, Wiki, 1974, Search Bruins Team Photo 1974, Browse Google Images, Check Key Players, Gilbert (boom - though it was a little tough with the sweaty hair vs. his bowl cut!)
