Excerpts from Zander Hollander Complete Hockey Handbook, 1976-77 (by Reyn Davis) Practices are always spirited when Gordie is on the ice ... Bodies fly ... He loves a fight and speaks of them in nostalgic tones, such as "I remember one night in Cherry Hill this other guy in me started throwing 'em when suddenly I lost my balance and ..." ... He's a romantic, never holding grudges ... Ranked #3 in penalty minutes, 297, behind only teammate Curt Brackenbury, 365, and rookie Kim Clackson of Indianapolis, 351 ... Fired 4 goals in 64 games but was on the ice for five more goals by the Nordiques than opponents ... Wore out his welcome in the playoffs in 1975 when he struck his coach, Harry Neale, then of the Minnesota Fighting Saints, after missing a curfew.
