The 1982-83 O-Pee-Chee Dating Game (Episode 2)


Welcome back to The 1982-83 O-Pee-Chee Dating Game, where we'll randomly select three eligible bachelors from the set and you, the reader, will choose which one wins that date with a special lady. How do we know they're bachelors? Why, it says so right on the back of their hockey cards, that's how!

Normand Leveille from the Boston Bruins was our big winner from episode 1. Now let's start the 2nd round and introduce our bachelors! [APPLAUSE]

Bachelor number 1: Defenseman from the New York Rangers, Tom Laidlaw
Bachelor number 2: Center from the Hartford Whalers, Ron Francis
Bachelor number 3: Center from the Boston Bruins, Steve Kasper



Remarkably, for the second week in a row the randomizer has chosen a Whaler and a Bruin. We've got a New England rivalry, folks!

Now let's find out more about these gents from the back of their hockey cards.


Looks like two of our bachelors this week were a little bit camera-shy, and didn't share any hobbies. Will that effect the outcome? It's up to you!

Bachelor number 1: Former Wildcat Tom Laidlaw, who's living it up in the Big Apple now?

Bachelor number 2: Former Greyhound Ron Francis, who put up a terrific 149 points for the club in 1979-80?

Bachelor number 3: Third-year man Steve Kasper, who enjoys running in his leisure time?

  1. I'd go with the future hall of famer. Bachelor #2.

  2. I pick #3. Steve is a runner which probably keeps him from making a commitment at the altar. He enjoys being pursued but staying one step ahead of the golden ring.

    1. Hah! This is by far the funniest comment anyone's made on the blog so far.
