Couldn’t find Bobby Balin. Then noticed it’s a U instead of LI.I used to watch a lot of hockey; but, before the North Stars came into the NHL in 1967, it was college hockey. So the name Bobby Baun still didn’t ring a bell.But then, you usually only hear about the goalie or the main goal scorers on the opponent’s teams. According to Wikipedia, he only averaged around 2 a year during his 17 year NHL career (played 5 games, and actually had a goal, in the 18th, before retiring due to a neck injury); you don’t hang around that long unless you’re really good.
