1973–74 California Golden Seals season
Encyclopedia
The 1973–74 California Golden Seals
season was the Seals' seventh season
in the NHL. With the continuing depletion of talent due to the World Hockey Association
and a lack of interest from owner Charles O. Finley
who put the team up for sale, the Seals had a miserable season and sank to a franchise low 36 points. In January 1974, the NHL bought the Seals from owner Charlie Finley for $6.585 million. With the league takeover, the players immediately returned to wearing black skates. The Seals would conclude the season with the worst record in the league.
