Wayne Schaab scored 354 goals and had 929 assists over a 13-year professional hockey career that extended through the 1970s and into the early '80s. His best season, in which he had an incredible 69 assists and 96 points for the Flyers affiliate, the Maine Mariners, was also his second-to-last, because back in 1981-1982 there were far fewer NHL teams and far fewer opportunities for a small skinny forward with great hands but, as I recall, not the fleetest of feet.
That was my first year as a sports writer with The Journal-Tribune in Biddeford, Maine -- a newspaper, I am proud to say, that still exists.
