I did get to see the Johnstown Chiefs before they ceased operations as my roommate was from Johnstown and Slapshot is one of my favorite movies of all time not only because it's great but I was able to experience the Chiefs culture. The movie depicts it very well. So some love came out of hockey in that era and I can also pick out a Pittsburgh native from accent almost immediately.

This was a series that really got me into hockey (sorry
)... a buddy of mine is a Devils fan and I remember a few of those games being insanely intense (even for someone with no real rooting interest).
