    Thank you Bobby Hull for the good memories. RIP

    I was fortunate to have seen Hull and the Blackhawks play the Rangers at Madison Square Garden in the late 60’s. Bobby scored two slap shot goals on a mask less goalie Ed Giacomin.

    We then moved to Chicago where I learned to play hockey. The tabletop hockey game I bought came with a little booklet of Bobby Hull showing how to hit a slap shot.

    I recall Bobby telling a story about Gerry Cheevers .

    He said that he wound up for a slap shot (with that banana curve) and then looked up to see Cheevers had moved out of the net

    Quite the eye opening piece in the Athletic on him by Mark Lazerus.

    Perhaps celebrate the player, not the 'man'

    Hard to do when the greatness of the player still can't overshadow what a poor excuse of a man Bobby Hull was:
