The Beauce Jaros hailed from the small Quebec city of Saint-Georges. Though the club would last just one-and-a-half seasons in 1975 and 1976, the Jaros made history when center Jocelyn Hardy recorded the first 200-point season in pro hockey history in 1976.
The Broome Dusters, AKA the Binghamton Dusters, were a popular minor league hockey team during the mid-1970’s in Broome County, New York. The Dusters originally played in the rough and tumble North American Hockey League from 1973 through 1977. After that league collapsed, the Dusters joined the American Hockey League for three seasons from 1977 until 1980. Binghamton resident Johnny Hart, who penned the syndicated comic strips B.C. and The Wizard of Id, designed the Dusters’ logo of a caveman with a hockey stick.
