1929 Chicago Blackhawks

Another interesting old clip - 1929 Chicago Blackhawks.

Notice the individual rushes without players looking for a lead pass. Pre forward pass era. Also notice the defensive team falling back below the blue line.

Nice touch with the ice sweepers.

Comments appreciated.

The lack of skill is incredible but technology also lacked compared to today.
Very nice video
