It’s March 2nd, 1996, and the Boston Blazers are visiting the New York Saints at the Nassau Coliseum on Long Island, New York.
The Blazers are poised to go deep into the playoffs this year, and look to steal a game from the Saints.
Tom Ryan comes into the game as a leader for the Blazers, while Vinnie Sombrotto takes charge of the Saints offense.
Charlie Blanchard had a big game for the Blazers, while Jason Wulder, and Tim McIntee had good games as well for the Saints.
The goalie matchup was Marty O’Neill for Boston vs. Sal Locasi in the nets for New York…both were sensational in this affair!
This game goes right down to the wire…you’ll have to watch to see who comes out on top!
Sit back, relax, and enjoy this game in it’s entirety!
