Very sad to hear of the passing of Ron Duguay. He had a solid career as a Ranger and was a far better player than his Ooo-La-La Sasson image might lead you to believe. He was one of the last players in the NHL instantly recognizable thanks to his flowing hair before helmets were made mandatory, but again, he was far more substance than style. RIP.
What a production! Once again, MSG puts on a spectacular and memorable show. For those of us old enough to remember the beloved first two Knicks championship teams, seeing Clyde, Dollar Bill, Earl the Pearl, plus Dave DeBuscherre’s son and Willis Reed’s wife hand out the rings was quite emotional and I’m not ashamed to say brought a tear or two to the eyes.
That was one of my favorite days in all the years I spent with the Islanders. For whatever the reason(s) it hadn’t happened earlier, it was a thrill to see the unbridled joy on the face of this great, great player and terrific person who I am happy to count among my friends. I was particularly proud to emcee that event which was one of many terrific memories from a thoroughly enjoyable season. Of course, we all could have done without the cold showers in our Toronto hotel rooms on the morning of game 7 of that season’s playoff series with the Leafs. I’m sure it was just a coincidence.
Matthew Schaefer is not the first #Isles kid to win the Calder while living with a Long Island family.
When his No. 19 was retired 25 years ago today, Bryan Trottier told me about the impact of the Amendolas on his rookie season.
We revisit the story.

Unpacking old stuff after a move can really take you back. This is the cover of my 11th grade notebook from April, 1971 after the Rangers beat the Maple Leafs to advance to the Stanley Cup semifinals vs. the Black Hawks. First year I was a season ticket holder. Will never get over that 7th game in Chicago. Ever.
Today (10/16) in 1969 still stands as one of the most incredible days in sports history. The ‘69 Miracle won the World Series & all of our lives changed. Thanks to all who continue to keep the memory of that team alive!!
If you’re too young to remember and don’t understand the transcendent significance of the 1969 Mets, there are plenty of great books which will educate you. @ArtShamsky’s “After the Miracle” and @wr_coffey’s “They Said It Couldn’t Be Done” are two fairly recent ones. 57 years ago today at 3:17 PM, EST, Cleon Jones perfectly choreographed the conclusion to The Greatest New York Sports Story Ever Told. Happy Anniversary to the 1969 World Champion New York Mets.
Believe me, I understand why it’s an anomaly and business is business, but even if it’s just for old times sake, there’s something really cool about post season baseball during the day. Beautiful afternoon in Cleveland.
