I was at the '85 Tonka-Jefferson 4OT thriller too. Quite a game although it ended flatly (the next day) for the Skippers. I actually don't remember much about the actual game, but I recently watched it on youtube and can't believe how many scoring opportunities Tonka missed in the OTs. Credit to Jefferson goalie Tom Moran.Slap Shot wrote:Was there in '85 and a few times in between. Had to watch online from halfway across the planet but it was fun to finally see it happen.
The nice thing about this year's postseason is that Tonka got its multi-OT game out of the way in the sectional final, instead of state tournament quarters or semis.
