Reminds me of ( the famous ) short film,
The Sweater, featuring multiple references to Maurice Richard ... it's great!

Beliveau was one of the all-time best. Saw him play many times against my Blackhawks.
BTW, Gordie Howe is not doing well these days.

Howe had a massive stroke. A sad day for hockey.

One I wished I could have seen play. Always an impressive gentleman, his name was mentioned with reverence as one of the all time greats when I first watched hockey. RIP Jean.
