Yes, Ladies and gentleman the NHL in the late 70's and early 80's attempted to introduce Monday Night Hockey via the syndicated route. The game featured in the video is a contest that saw the Rangers host the Minnesota North Stars at Madison Square Garden on December 1st,1980 This telecast was a big deal in the city because other than in Manhattan , you were most likely never going to see a televised Ranger Home game. This game was broadcast on Channel 9 WOR, a channel that everyone in the metropolitan area could access. Ranger Home Games simply weren't available through cable in the other four boroughs at that time. But fortunately for me I grew up on Long Island and for some reason we got all the Rangers home games. Of course Rangers fans couldnt wait for this particular Monday Night contest in order to watch their beloved Rangers don the blueshirts at home live in Madison Square Garden. One of the hi-lites of this game is a bone jarring hit delivered by Barry Beck on an unsuspecting Mike Eaves. Barry Beck was the hardest hitter in Ranger history, bar none.

After the Power Rangers participate in a charity skydive, a giant egg is unearthed in Angel Grove. Lord Zedd and Rita Repulsa investigate the egg, and release the creature inside - Ivan Ooze, whom Zordon had trapped inside the egg six thousand years ago. Once released, Ooze leaves to seek revenge on Zordon, double-crossing Zedd and Rita by trapping them in a snowglobe. He disguises himself as a carnival wizard and gives free jars of purple ooze to children. Fred Kelman, the Rangers' young friend, buys a jar, and brings it home. Later, his father finds the jar and inspects the ooze. When he pulls some out of the jar, mysterious charges of purple electricity go through him, putting him under the control of Ivan Ooze along with all of the other parents of Angel Grove. Apparently this ooze only affects adults, as it is later seen that the children and teens are not affected and are playing with the ooze.
