2/18/1981 Maple Leafs 3 at Rangers 8

The Rangers enjoy an 8-3 win at home in this one, an original six matchup against the Leafs, a team that was entering a very tough time in their history. A rather chippy game, with lots of 2 minute stick-related minors called. The Swedes were the stars for the Rangers, Ulf Nilsson with 2 goals, and Anders Hedberg with 4 assists. Rangers broadcast, decent quality, missing most of the second period, and the last minute of the third. All copyrights reserved by the NHL. Posted for historical and nostalgic reasons only.
