Got to meet Maurice Richard at an old timers game in February 1991 in Regina, Saskatchewan. He was soft spoken and super polite. He told me to stand beside him so I could have my picture taken with him/took picture with his brother Henri at the same game.
We all wore the famous number 9 on our backs like Maurice Rocket Ricard, We all laced up our skates like Maurice Rocket Richard, We all greased our hair like Maurice Rocket Richard
Love the story, it's great hearing a living legend talk about a legend. I heard a story once about Richard's intensity, a teammate scored a winning goal and The Rocket embraced him so hard that he broke his nose.
I met Rocket Richard in 1961 or 62 in Gananoque Ontario when he was guest referee for an exhibition game. He struck me a really humble and very polite. One of my fondest memories as a player. Tom Carty
I REMEMBER the night in Montreal When all hell broke Loose, That night i shall never 😌 forget 😌 Although I'm a Leaf's supporter for over 8 Decades,, I Tip my hat too one Hellava,hockey Icon,, Colonel Hank HANDKE DCH QDJR Niagara Falls ont Canada 🇨🇦
Après la retraite de Richard, les joueurs du Canadien ont choisis Béliveau comme capitaine plutôt que Geoffrion, malgré le fait que ce dernier avait plus d'ancienneté. () Béliveau s'est également longtemps opposé à ce que le "jersey" de Geoffrion soit retiré. Il a payé cher son "lack of respect" du Rocket.
Don and Family, I love your program and Don....your stories are fantastic! Thank you! Don, you are missed like the voice of Harry Neale, Bob Cole and Dick Irving 🥲 Mike Fitzgerald Calgary Canada 🇨🇦
There never will be another like him that’s for sure. For as hard as he played he also took a lot of cheap crap from others. He never complained and kept putting them in the net.
Grew up with stories of Rocket told by my grandpa who watched him years ago from the U.P. One of the best to lace up and Mr. Cherry, you sure are missed! I haven’t watched HNIC since and I grew up watching only HNIC because that’s hockey, not sorry @ss ESPN! Long live Rocket Richard and Don Cherry!
Back when men were real men. Richard, Howe, Hull etc. No helmets, No beards. Can you imagine how many goals they would score now in this watered down version of hockey nowdays.
Come on Donald! In 1980s NHL 8 goals per game! Today only 6 goals per game! Auston Matthews have scored this season 54 goals in 63 games! If Matthews had played In 1982 he would had scored over 100 goals easily beating Gretzky's 92 goal record! Ovechkin ERA only 5,3-6 goals per game! If Ovechkin had played high scoring 1980s he would had scored over 1000 goals easily! In 1980s 90% of the NHL players were from Canada! Today under 60% of the NHL players from Canada! Gretzky played players from Canada only! Canada have 650000 hockey players! Ovechkin's Russia under 100000 hockey players! Canada should have 7 guys who have scored over 800 goals like Ovechkin! Don Cherry brainwashed the people of Canada to hate other countries! Don Cherry claiming that NHL players from USA Russia FINLAND Sweden CzechRepulic Slovakia are Ilegal aliens not Humans only aliens! Don Cherry said do not draft USA born Auston Matthews! Lunatic Cherry claiming that the NHL MVP is Ryan Reaves! This is why Canada do not have 7 guys who have scored over 800 goals because bad hockey culture demanding fighting violence no talent skating skills no stick handling! No-one wants goon enforces back like 1970s bad NHL hockey! Today NHL is amazing better than ever!!
@@RaineriHakkarainen well I guess we are are just at a gridlock. I will take team of Gordie Howes, or Booby Hulls, or Rocket Richards any day and you can have a team of Auston Mathews and I bet I beat you every time. And give me goon hockey of. the 70’s and not these figure skaters we are stuck with for now at least. And Don Cherry………NO , he is not a woke snowflake.
That is the rockets last goal. Of note.He beat tim horton twice on the same play!! Tim hortons probably never gave the rocket a free coffee after that. I saw him play from the blue line in he was not stoppable

Pride of Quebec

Pure defenition of a warrior! To me he will always be the GOAT!
Don turns 90 this year. Good to see him still alive and firey
I wish there was more video of this great player
Me too... I've read somewhere CBC/Radio-Canada erased hours of hockey footage... Not knowing the value of this at the time...
@@dextrosebizarre same thing they did to johnny’s tonight show
The rocket was a class act. A pros pro.
The only time i heard Don Cherry talking intelligently ! I am extremely surprised ! I am almost in a state of shock !!!
Rocket sure was a incredible man. The icon of the Montreal Canadians.
I REMEMBER the night in Montreal
When all hell broke Loose,
That night i shall never 😌 forget 😌

Fast forward to about 57 minutes in.
Having gotten into hockey in 1965 I missed the pleasure of following. The. Rocket unfortunately. Thanks for the show. Don
There never will be another like him that’s for sure. For as hard as he played he also took a lot of cheap crap from others. He never complained and kept putting them in the net.
he comes from a breed of men who lived hard times, they were not scared of hard work and had respect for others... The way humans should be.

01:09 Richard slaps the puck with his right hand towards the goal while on his stomach.

Boom. Boom got booed booed ....wow that's crazy
Oooops brain 🎸 🍯 🎸 jam 🎶
At 3:57 in this video ... grapevine shows around 1884... Hmmm? How old are these guys?
The real Maurice Richard. A great man!
Not like the other one who will spend his afterlife in hell.
Yes put a cherry on a cake
I don't know for sure, but it looked like a hand pass or shooting with his hand.
