Synopsis
Entering the 1978-1979 season, the Boston Bruins had been one of the best teams in the National Hockey League for more than a decade. Yet they could not shake the postseason jinx the Montreal Canadiens held over them--the Habs had ousted them in 13 consecutive playoff series going back to 1940s. The Bruins wanted one more shot at their nemeses, after coming up short in both the 1977 and 1978 Stanley Cup finals. They got their chance in the semifinal round. Led by the colorful but embattled coach Don Cherry, the underdog Bruins played seven heart-stopping games. Victory seemed within their grasp but was snatched away with an untimely penalty in the final minutes of game seven. The author looks back at the season from opening night at Boston Garden to the catastrophic conclusion at the Montreal Forum, with detailed accounts of the semifinal games and a post-mortem of the infamous bench penalty., Looks back at the Boston Bruins' 1978-79 season from opening night to the catastrophic conclusion seven months later at the Montreal Forum. It is prefaced by the history of the Bruins' frustrating playoff jinx versus the Canadiens that dated back to 1930, the tribulations and events that marked Boston's 1978-79 regular season, and a recap of the team's quarter final playoff victory over Pittsburgh.
