Robert L Note: Sometime in April 2008, Buffalo sports writer and NFL expert Larry Felsner (Pro Football Hall Of Fame writer) tackled the subject of the Rocket Richard riots and gets it partly right. You can tell his colours right off from the opening sentence - he's not well versed enough in hockey history to be touching on most of this.Still the story of Maurice Richard and the riots of March 1955 always makes for a compelling and compassionate read, despite the inconsistancies with truth and a reliance on myth. Felner's is just one many historical accountings of the time, and like others, it seems to take a stance, without considering every angle, every witness and a good number of countering reports to make the picture a fuller one.I've tried to clear up most of Felsner's historical errors with bracketed notes and comments. Beyond Felsner's telling, there is a second, more accurate account sprinkled with video and photo accompaniment that follows. At the very end of this piece, a series of outside links on the subject are also made available.From Larry Felsner,:Hockey has always been a niche sport, considered a superb game by those of us who love it, but largely ignored by hordes of other sports fans who reside south of the Canadian border.The niche has never been smaller than the ‘50s, when the National Hockey League consisted of a mere six teams – the Chicago Black Hawks, and in the U.S. Plus the and Toronto Maple Leads in Canada. Occasionally a few of the American owners might urge that the league be expanded, but most of the moguls were satisfied with what they considered a cozy setup.

(RL - The expansion of 1967 was pioneered and executed mostly by Hab's GM Sam Pollock's insistance.)Their feeder system, which supplied all but a tiny percentage of talent ( RL - It supplied all of it! ) to the NHL six, consisted of junior teams spread coast to coast across Canada, all of which were controlled – and sometimes wholly owned – by the major league clubs. The major league's control often reached down into the pee-wee leagues, so if a talented young player began serious competitive play for an affiliate of the Bruins, or one of the others, he would remain the property ( RL - C-Form deafting.) of that organization until they traded or released him.

With so much talent stockpiled in so few farm systems, the pay scales could be easily controlled, too.It wasn't quite cradle-to-grave ownership, but it was close. Nowhere was the stamp of the parent team more traditional than in the Province of Quebec, where boys of French-Canadian heritage yearned to be happy serfs of the Canadiens.By 1955 (RL - Try 1930!), the Montreal team, referred to as 'the Flying Frenchmen' in newspaper sports sections all over North America, was established as the model of the NHL system. Montreal had a few outstanding Anglo players such as Doug Harvey, the all-star defenseman, and Dickie Moore, the reliable winger.

But the core of the team was Gallic: Bernie 'Boom-Boom' Geoffrion, the first to perfect the slap shot; Jacques Plante, the first goalkeeper to wear a mask; the regal center-man, Jean Beliveau; prize rookie Henri Richard and, most prominently, right wing Maurice Richard, the face and symbol not only of a hockey team, but of an entire province, Le Belle Quebec, in all its pride.Eventually Maurice Richard was christened 'the Rocket,' yet the elder Richard did not barge into the NHL in the manner of Wayne Gretzky, and more recently,. As a junior he was considered injury prone (RL - Rocket was considered a top rank prospect, but had suffered three key injuries in three seasons.), and when he finally reported to the Canadiens as a rookie, he was rehabilitating from a broken leg.

At first management feared that he would never be fast enough to fly with the other French stars, and the Montreal front office considered releasing him.Instead, they gave him a second chance (RL - I'd suggest he earned it with 11 points in 16 games!), placing him on a line with two experienced veterans, left wing Hector 'Toe' Blake and center Elmer Lach. The youngster, who had been the last man to make his junior team, flourished. The media nicknamed the trio 'the Lamplighter Line,' for the frequency for which the right goal light flashed for them. (RL - 'The Old Lamplighter was Toe Blake's nickname, the line itself of Lach and Blake, with Joe Benoit, had been dubbed the 'Punch Line' one season prior to Richard's inclusion on it). When Richard scored an unprecedented 50 goals in 50 games during the 1945-46 (RL - it was in 1944-45) season, the name 'Rocket' was attached to him forever.The names his opponents called him were far less printable. His will to win knew few bounds, literally.An opponent's view of Richard's relentlessness could be harrowing. 'When he came flying toward you, 'said Hall of Fame goalie Glenn Hall, 'his eyes were all lit up, flashing and gleaming like a pinball machine.' Wally Stanowski, a former Toronto player, went further.

'He had that fiery look all the time,' said Stanowski, 'I once heard it described as having the look of an escaped mental patient. I thought that was a good description.' In a game on March 15 against New York (RL - Come on, it was against the Boston Bruins!) near the end of the 1955 season, Richard's competitive fury, which he managed to channel most of the time, became completely un-channeled. It started when the high stick of Ranger (RL - again, the Bruins) defenseman Hal Laycoe cut him and it drew blood. Laycoe was a former teammate of the Rocket's, but that didn't stop Richard from attacking him in revenge, hitting him across the shoulders and face with his stick. (RL - Richard also used his fists, after an initial stick blow.)Finally, as the fight seemed to subside, lineman Cliff Thompson moved in to separate the combatants and return order to the game, which is part of a linesman's job. Richard did not wish to be soothed, and when Thompson tried to move him away from Laycoe, he punched the linesman twice in the face, knocking him unconscious.

(RL - Actually Thompson approached and withheld Richard from behind, while, as one report noted, Laycoe decked him! Richard always maintained that he did not at first know it was the official he was striking. Just a small, minute detail.)As soon as the game ended, the referee filed a report to the NHL commissioner, Clarence Campbell, since attacking an official in hockey is just as serious as it is in any other sport. After digesting the report and pondering his options (RL - Apparently Campbell discussed what to do with the owners of the 5 other NHL teams! ) for two days, Campbell issued his decision: Richard would be suspended, not just for the last three games of the regular season, but for the entire Stanley Cup playoffs.The people of the city of Montreal and the province of Quebec itself were thunderstruck. The Canadiens and Detroit were tied for first place in the league and were to meet that night in the Montreal Forum. The fan reaction was so immediate and furious in the city that the police commissioner warned Campbell, whose office and that of the league were located in Montreal, that it would be inadvisable for him to attend the game as was his usual custom.

Spacechem every day is the first day lyrics. It's not for everyone, but if you love difficult and complex mechanical puzzles, you'll probably be a fan. SpaceChem is a complex puzzle game where you play a space engineer who works at SpaceChem, a company specialized in transforming raw materials into chemicals suitable for human use.The gameplay is relatively complex, and it can be overwhelming when you first begin your adventure as a space engineer.

Public attitudes were so poisonous that his staff begged him not to even think about entering the Forum.Hours before the opening face-off, crowds, most of whom did not have tickets, gathered on St. Catharines St.

Broken Help him get through challenging levels, beat various bosses, learn new skills, and find the villain behind the abduction of young women.

And adjoining streets around the Forum, and they were in a surly mood.

Clutch CargoWritten byVoices ofRichard CottingTheme music composerCountry of originUnited StatesOriginal language(s)EnglishNo. Of episodes52ProductionProducer(s)Running time4 minutesProduction company(s)Cambria ProductionsReleaseOriginal releaseMarch 9, 1959 –1960Clutch Cargo is an American animated television series produced by Cambria Productions and syndicated beginning on March 9, 1959. The series was notable for its very limited animation yet imaginative stories. It was a surprise hit at the time, and could be seen on 65 stations nationwide in 1960. Contents.Plot The stories centered on adventurer Clutch Cargo, who was sent around the world on dangerous assignments. Accompanying him on the assignments were his young ward Spinner and his pet dachshund Paddlefoot.

Live-action footage was used, as well, of a 1929; series creator was previously a jet pilot. Episodes were produced and then serialized in five five-minute chapters each. The first four chapters ended in cliffhangers, with the fifth chapter concluding the adventure. Haas explained that the show was formatted this way so that 'the stations can run one a day on weekdays, then recap the whole for a half-hour Saturday show.' Technique The show was the first to use the ' optical printing system because of budgetary limitations and the pressure to create animation within a tight time frame.

Syncro-Vox was invented by, television cameraman and partner in Cambria Studios, as a means of superimposing real human mouths on the faces of animals for the popular 'talking animal' commercials of the 1950s. Clutch Cargo employed the Syncro-Vox technique by superimposing live-action human lips over limited-motion animation or even motionless animation cels.To further cut costs, Gillette and special-effects man Scotty Tomany supplemented Syncro-Vox with other tricks to save time and money.

Haas explained, 'We are not making animated cartoons. We are photographing 'motorized movement' and—the biggest trick of all—combining it with live action.

Footage that does for $250,000 we do for $18,000.' Gillette and Tomany simulated action in the real-time movement either with the camera or within the cel itself. Other live-action shots were superimposed as a means of adding a certain degree of realism and to keep production costs down. For example, footage of real smoke was used for explosions. Traditional animation was also employed in the series on occasion.The musical soundtrack to Clutch Cargo was also limited.

Jazz musician provided a score using bongos, a vibraphone, and a flute.Legacy A clip from this series appears briefly in the 1994 film; additionally, who voiced some of the characters in this series, also appears in the film.In 1996, a live music venue named after the series, Clutch Cargo's, opened in. In 2013, Clutch Cargo was featured on where it placed #19 on the show's countdown of dumbest TV shows.Episode list The series consisted of 52 episodes. Woolery, George W. Scarecrow Press.
