Funny thing is that both Ashbee and Rolfe played on the same Jr A team (Barrie Flyers) in the late 50's. I played with Barry in Jr B and Jr A he was a damn good defenseman. Should have been in the NHL long before expansion!

Thankfully most players in the NHL do wear a sheild attached to their helmets. Mike Modano of the Stars began wearing one after he was hit near the eye with a puck.

Yep. I also saw that game. I was a huge Flyer fan. Truly a sickening feeling seeing Ashbee go down like that.

I saw this one live on TV and I remember having a sinking feeling. It was the end of a great career but even more sadly Barry Ashbee died three years later from leukemia. He is always remembered with fondness and respect by Flyers fans.

Barry Ashbee was my Great Uncle never met him, wish I had the chance too. He passed away from Leukemia a couple years after this. Even though this is a horrible event thank you for putting up the video.

both this game and the game with the famous schultz-rolfe fight were in the 1974 cup semi-final series, about a week apart. the year the flyers won their first cup. Look at both replays. Both were on NBC with Tim Ryan announcing. I would guess this was game 3 or 4 @ MSG. The famous fight was in game 7 @ the spectrum. And I'm convinced both are related, otherwise why would Schultz have made a bee-line right for a guy like Rolfe and punched him out when he wasn't expecting it. It was a payback/
