Lysiak was before my time but the main thing I remember about him was that my dad saved a bunch of old newspapers from random Bears games, and, on one of those papers, the top headline was "Lysiak suspended 20 games for tripping linesman"

Some say the refs would make calls against the Hawks for years after that happened to make a point and revenge for that trip. Their own secret vendetta against the Hawks.

I was trying to find that clip on youtube, but it proved futile. Maybe someone with more time on their hands could find it and post it.

Did find this

I remember going to games as a younger fan and hearing these stories, which are complete BS.
Fans love a conspiracy.
