I dont recall rick macleish playing for the atlanta flames?he was with the flyers.

Oh. Well, I liked Plett. He was a great defensemen. I also liked Guy Chouinard, one of the best offensive players to ever play with Atlanta. I thought MacLeish did play for Atlanta. I certainly know he was on Philadelphia but maybe not Atlanta.

 

[masterofhockeyknowledge]

My mistake, my memory is refreshed. Rick MacLeish did not play with the Atlanta Flames. He only played with Philadelphia and Pittsburgh his whole career in the NHL. He certainly was a good player though.

He only played about 20 games with Detroit before quitting in 83 or 84. I always get MacLeish mixed up with my favourite Atlanta Flame player. I mixed MacLeish up with Bob MacMillan. MacMillan and Chouinard were a dynamic duo in early 79. If I recall they both tallied over 100 points to become Atlanta Flames first 100 point scorers. Bob MacMillan became more defensive after that 100 point season.

Yeah,I always hated that retard Glen Hanlon for beating the hail out of Myre in that big Vancouver/Philly brawl.

Ed Kea ring a bell for anyone?D-man that hit like a freight train.

The game that you are talking about was around 1979. i have seen the fights of this game on video. and i am sure that Ed Kea passed away a few years ago,i miss those great days of the 1960s and 1970s.

I remember Ed Kea very well! Atlanta Flames player late 1970's Had the biggest hands Ive ever seen! hHe did a Header into the boards and had a bad head injury( I believe he was with The St. Louis Blues at that time),he is Most responsible for the use of Helments today. How is that for some History from an Ole Timer?
