Anyone know where to get old tapes?

I am trying to get my hands on a tape of the North Star-Bruins tilt that resulted in over 400 penalty minutes back in 1981. Does anyone know a good source for finding old game tapes?

Thanks!

    That wasn't the old Dave Forbes/Henry Boucha game was it? That was a debacle!

    Not sure, but I don't think so. I remember there being 406 penalty minutes and not much hockey. Since I was 8 at the time, I didn't get to see the whole game. It was actually a guy that works for me who was 30 at the time that really want to see the game again. I remember the Stars having a few fight fests with the hated Blackhawks, but nothing ever came close to that February night with Boston

    Thanks Brian Winters Fan! Do you remember that game? Hardly a classic in the typical sense, but interesting nonetheless.
  • Not a hockey fan but I do have sources.
  • No, after Forbes/Boucha.

    '81? Absolutely incredible.

    Let me know if you find a copy!
  • The game does exist but the quality is not the greatest. I'm working on getting a copy and if I do I will hook you guys up image

    Thanks BWF! That would be great.
  • Here is some info on that game.

    Most penalties, both teams, one period:
    67- Minnesota North Stars, Boston Bruins, at Boston, Feb. 26, 1981, first
    period. Minnesota received 15 minors, 8 majors, 4 ten minute misconducts
    and 7 game misconducts, for a total of 34 penalties. Boston had 16
    minors, 8 majors, 3 ten minute misconducts and 6 game misconducts, for a
    total of 33 penalties.
    Minnesota's efforts also earned them the record for most penalties by a
    single team in a period.

    I tracked down a slight upgrade and am working on getting a copy so let me know who would be interested.


  • I would DEFINITELY be interested.

    I'm also looking for the Bruins/Montreal brawl in 1986 at Boston Garden that spilled into the hallway between the benches under the stands. I think I may have found it on E-Bay.

  • For anyone interested I do have the penalty game from 1981 on the way.

  • williplett I will email you but you should turn on your PM option. Click on the profile button and go in and turn on that option. Then when you want to send someone a PM click on that icon that looks like a little padlock in their post. It's easy and a good way to communicate back and forth.
