John Putnam Thatcher, senior vice-president of the Sloan Guaranty Trust, received the news that his bank was to sponsor hockey telecasts with his usual equanimity. After all, the cellar-dwelling New York Huskies were nothing to get excited about. But that was before the Huskies hit an incredible winning streak, shot into first place, and created a wave of hockey hysteria. Even this Thatcher could have ignored - if it hadn't been for the two corpses that were churned up in its wake!
