    When Toronto beat the islanders in the '78 playoffs, the talk around Toronto was that they were about 2-3 players away from winning a cup. They were a lot more than that! In 1978, Roger Nielson was instrumental in trading Randy Carlyle and George Ferguson to Pittsburgh for washed up Dave Burrows (retired in '81). How'd that work out?

    • @jamesanthony5681
