NHL 2009 Playoffs

So they just mentioned on the Comcast telecast that this series is the first playoff meeting of California teams since the Golden Seals lost to the LA Kings in 7 games in 1969. So naturally I turned to Google to learn more of this team I've known about for 2 hours. It seems Charlie O Finley bought the team in 1970 (Oh how awesome Oakland sports in the early '70s must have been!). In 1976 they were sold off and moved to Ohio and became the Cleveland Barons, which were later folded into the Minnesota North Stars. They are now the Dallas Stars.

Oh, those Golden Seals.
