The New York Rangers and the Montreal Canadiens played in the first hockey game to be televised in the U.S. The game was aired on W2WBS in New York with one camera in a fixed position. The Rangers beat the Canadiens 6-2. (1940)
The Boston Bruins set an NHL record after going 23 games unbeaten. Their record during the stretch was 15-0-8. (1941)

Happy Birthday to the following people. If any of you are dead now & I missed the news, I apologize. I'm trying to be nice here.
Happy 52nd to former LA Laker, Kurt Rambis. I hated you as a player.
Happy 47th to former Yankee & Reds outfielder, Paul O'Neill. I loved you as a player, regardless of the fact that you were a Yankee. I always respected your intensity. If I ever made it as a ballplayer, I most likely would've been just like you.
Happy 39th to former Bruins goaltender 'Lord' Byron Dafoe.
& for my non-sports related birthday wishes.....
Happy 44th to TV personality/reporter/TCFB Femme Fatale, Nancy O'Dell. The 44 years have been very kind to you.
Chuck
