I was least sure about Young, but he did indeed get past 2,000 with Texas.

The mandate came from Louie, through Sonmor that EVERY hit was going to be returned 10 fold. The referees actually had to stop the 1st period (or pareodd as Jaques would say) early to sort out all of the penalties from a bench clearing brawl. The game set an NHL record for penalty minutes. The North Stars lost the game, but it turned the entire season around. They came back and swept Boston in the playoffs on their way to their first Stanley Cup final.

Besides, Greedy and Gripey Gund still owned the North Stars in 1981. Greedy and and Gripey Gund didn't sell to Gropey Green until 1990.

One of the greatest days in NS history for sure.
It announced our arrival to relevancy.
We had been the Bruins bitch until that night.
We had gradually loaded up on tough guys, and that night we turned the corner.
When even our wimps had had enough, you knew something great had happened.
Boosted us to a great playoff run to the Finals.

Thanks Sweens.
