CURLING SWEEPERS!!!!!

And those looked like shamrocks on the opposing team’s sweaters . . . perhaps the Toronto St. Pats, before they became the Maple Leafs?

Very cool video.

I did a little google research. Turns out the opposing team is the Chicago Shamrocks that played two seasons in the old American Hockey Association from 1930-1932.

Notice the shit lighting in that rink?

Looks like one big light at center ice and the rest of the ice is dark. I played in a few rinks that had shit lighting like that, the corners were like dark alleys. Usually a cheap azz rink owner who didn’t want to keep all the lights on or too cheap to change the burnt out ones.

Just a chew toy for the hockey gods

That would be a reasonable explanation.

Must’ve been an exhibition game then.

Nice research!
