Phil Esposito played the greatest and most impactful 20min of hockey-ever, Thursday September 28, 1972, 3rd period game 8, Summit Series. Today he turns 82 years old. He meant so much to Canada and to hockey. Happy birthday my dear friend. :) It's been an honour thru the years.

@Liams_Hockey As well as one of the greatest hockey players ever. His scoring dominance 1968-75 never gets the respect it deserves.
@Liams_Hockey I’ve watched his interview with Johnny Esaw hundreds of times. Canadians needed to hear it. For me, it was the turning point in that historic series.
@Liams_Hockey Indeed. Happy Birthday Phil. That interview though. Legendary.
@Liams_Hockey Henderson scored the winning goal but Espo made the play.
