Inaccurate Information Stated By Kenny Albert
Ubiquitous NHL announcer Kenny Albert imparted INACCURATE information as he ended his broadcast work on the Ottawa Senators (1-0), #4 victory at Boston vs the Bruins, which gives the Sens a seemingly commanding three games to one first round/preliminary/one round too many, lead.
Albert stated that this was the first time since 1969, that the Celtics and Bruins playing on 4 consecutive days at home, lost all four games.
He may have said in the playoffs, which I immediately knew was incorrect as the ’69 Celtics lost but one home playoff game en route to an incredible 11th NBA crown in 13 seasons despite a fourth place finish in the NBA East during the regular season.
I checked both the 1968-1969 and 1969-1970 regular seasons and the Celtics and Bruins never lost 4 home games on 4 consecutive days.
