From Greg Wyshynski at Puck Daddy:
Q. When you were playing, and you were eliminated from the playoffs, how would you get over it? Hit the bars afterwards?
HULL: I’d play my guts out. Win, lose or draw, I’d always give it my all. If we got beat, it was usually by a better team, or somebody on our team came up a little short. A day after, we would all get together because the guys would disperse and head home, generally back to Canada. It would be the last time we would see them until September and training camp.
Billy Reay, who was our coach, used to bring in a 50-gallon drum, fill it with ice and water, and throw cans of beer in there. And we used to go diving like we would as kids for apples, and commiserate that we got beat.
