Steam Driven Posted May 11, 2003 Share Posted May 11, 2003 Was it Toe Blake or King Clancy who said "If you can't beat 'em in the alley's, you'll never beat 'em on the ice"? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Retyred Posted May 11, 2003 Share Posted May 11, 2003 If memory serves me correctly, I believe it was Conn Smythe who coined that phrase!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steam Driven Posted May 11, 2003 Author Share Posted May 11, 2003 Your memory must be better than mine! I remember as a kid in Vancouver watching the HNiC telecasts with the original hot stove league. If memory serves it was King Clancy, Toe Blake, and yes I think Conn Smythe was in there too. One of those old farts coined the phrase. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest James Posted May 12, 2003 Share Posted May 12, 2003 Believe it or not. My "mom" dated Toe Blake. Got an old scrapbook with great pics. Boy, time passes far too fast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
