The two absolute worst were Jack Tatum's paralyzing hit on Darryl Stingley, and Tony C getting beaned.
Stingley spent the rest of his life in a wheelchair, and Tony C was never the same, and died prematurely.
Thanks you gonna card me for smokes ,too?
I remember the cheap shot Stingley took. Was watching it with my Dad. No remorse from Tatum, and it was a preseason game. They say what comes around goes around and seeing Tatum's shriveled up, dying body on the sidelines at a USC game last year doesn't make it any less devastating a play.
Have seen Tony C's beaning, but wasn't alive for that. I think the reason they seem more devastating is because they were against the local teams.

Not too young.... was at the Oakland game... and Tony C was from my hometown of Swampscott, and I remember how his facial features were never the same again. Almost like he had a stroke, long before he actually had the strokes. His brothers' lives both changed that night too. They both kind of snapped... He was one of the three local greats that were revered around here, the others being #^^^^& Jauron and Harry Agganis.
