Broad Street Bully BROAD STREET BULLY by Chad Schultz Based on the life story of Dave "The Hammer" Schultz Lyrics to the song "Penalty Box" by Kal Mann reprinted with permission from Spirit One Music o/b/o Kalmann Music Inc. Chad Schultz Poets & Killers LLC o/b/o Dave The Hammer LLC 129 South Church St. Moorestown, NJ 08057 609.670.6808 [email protected] ©2009 Chad Schultz FADE IN: TWO HOCKEY PLAYERS collide in front of a TEAM BENCH where DAVE SCHULTZ (19), a clean-shaven, wide-eyed, innocent farm boy, watches the play like a rookie soldier on the edge of a war-zone. It’s 1969. Hockey helmets don’t even exist. And down here in the minors, guys knock out teeth for points. COACH (O.S.) Schultz. Get your gloves on. Dave slips them on and hops the boards. ON THE ICE - GAME IN PLAY Dave receives a breakout pass from a SMALLER TEAMMATE (20s). Skates like there’s a target on his back. Makes a HUGE OPPOSING DEFENSEMAN (20s) look like a fool by passing the puck to himself through the Defenseman’s legs. Ripping a quick, low snap-shot past the GOALIE -- SCORE! Sticks raise in celebration. Pissed, the Defenseman cruises over and plants a cheap elbow to Dave’s SMALLER TEAMMATE - who goes down - hurt. The sight of this stirs something in Dave, he glares at the villain, a cross-eyed brute, who takes the eye contact like any alpha male would. DEFENSEMAN (to Dave) What’re you gonna do, Chickenshit? Fight or flight? Dave chooses the latter. Turns his back and retreats to the bench. Thrilled with Dave’s cowardice, the Defenseman catches up. Passes. Jacks his stick-blade into Dave’s Adam’s apple. Dave drops to all fours - gasping - clutching his throat. The Defenseman coasts around smirking. Dave fights to breathe. Only the ice sees the fear of death on his face. 2. TITLE CARD: “BROAD STREET BULLY” FADE IN ON: A “BROAD STREET” sign blackened by car exhaust hangs over a grimy South Philadelphia intersection. In the distance, stands THE SPECTRUM SPORTS ARENA Super: The Spectrum, Philadelphia, PA, May 1973 INT. SPECTRUM OFFICE - SAME (1973) Darkness. A film projector runs. SCRATCHY HOCKEY FOOTAGE: Boston’s TERRY O’REILLY (20s) sucker punches Philadelphia’s young Captain, BOBBY CLARKE (20s), who goes down bleeding. In the shadows sits FLYERS CHAIRMAN, ED SNIDER (40s), a white- haired man in a perfect suit, disgusted by what he just saw. Head Coach FRED SHERO (40s) sits in the corner smoking a cigarette. His eyes darkened by his signature yellow-tinted glasses. He looks like a boxer waiting for the next round. Keith Allen turns off the projector. Opens the blinds. Daylight hits a FLYERS LOGO on the wall. We’re in an office. SNIDER How is he? ALLEN On the mend. But you know Clarkey. Anxious to get back to work. He’s already talking about training camp. SNIDER What about the rest of the boys? I know quite a few of them saw that and just rolled over. Gave up the game. ALLEN Could’ve been a lot worse, Ed. 3. SNIDER (sighs) The whole future of this club is just one cheap shot away from going down for good. Could you imagine? Be impossible to replace Clarke. Take years. We’d never survive. (thinks) Keith, hear me. As long as you’re General Manager, I don’t ever want to see a Philadelphia Flyer intimidated again. Not ever. ALLEN I hear you. Shero crushes out his cigarette. SHERO You wanna build a mean machine, you need muscle. SNIDER Guys who can beat up other guys? Shero nods. Snider looks to Allen. SNIDER (CONT'D) Get ‘em in here. EXT. DIRT ROAD - DAY (1973) It’s a hot, dry summer day in Saskatchewan, a flatland of gold prairies and farms of wheat, corn, flax and cows. Super: Saskatchewan, Canada, July 1973 DAVE SCHULTZ (20s) runs, shirtless, hockey stick in hand as he stick handles a rock. Sweat drips from his clean-shaven face to his broad shoulders. Years have made a young man out of him. Confident. His hair-style and sideburns show a little Elvis-inspired rebelliousness. ON THE OUTSKIRTS OF TOWN Dave shoots a row of rocks at a METAL SIGN -- CLANG! CLANG! The sign reads: “WELCOME TO ROSETOWN HEART OF THE WHEATBELT” 4. EXT. SCHULTZ’S HOUSE - DAY (1973) Dave sprints to a stop in front of a modest gray house with cracked siding and a chain-link fence. AT THE MAILBOX marked “SCHULTZ”. DAVE pulls out an envelope from THE PHILADELPHIA FLYERS. Tears into it. Reads. Excited. Ditches the stick. Sprints back the way he came. EXT. PUBLIC POOL GROUNDS - LATER (1973) Dave reaches the fence. Eyes CATHY McNAB (17) on the other side, a knockout blonde in a red one-piece, reading a book. Dave whistles to her. Cathy looks, but instead of waving, she hops up, acting like she didn’t see him and is heading to the bathroom. OUTSIDE THE FENCE - BEHIND THE POOL HOUSE Cathy reads the letter. She’s about to cry. CATHY That’s great, Dave. Dave reaches for her, concerned. DAVE Cath? What is it? CATHY Wasn’t my plan to think about this today. DAVE Then don’t. Dave kisses her. Major PDA. Cathy pushes away, paranoid. CATHY Dave. DAVE No one can see. They’re interrupted by a car honk. Busted. 5. A WHITE CADILLAC FOUR DOOR. Out pops Cathy’s father, BOB McNAB (40s), a clean-cut gentleman in a suit and brimmed hat, the kind that a businessman molded in the 50s would wear. He appears quite ticked off at this sight. INT. MCNAB’S HOUSE – MOMENTS LATER (1973) On a clean, white LIVING ROOM WALL: CIVIC AWARDS presented to “BOB McNAB, MAYOR OF ROSETOWN.” BOB MCNAB (O.S.) He’s too old. KITCHEN Bob steeps a hot tea. JEAN (40s), Cathy’s mother, pulls a HAM from the oven as Cathy serves dinner to her YOUNGER SIBLINGS, JIM and ROB 14, 13 and LORY, 8). It’s a lively, light-hearted family dinner. CATHY By four years. Same as you and Mum. Bob and Jean glance at each other; guilty as charged. JEAN Edna told me Greg still wants to take you out. CATHY Mum, I don’t want to go out with Greg flippin’ Boucher! I’m with Dave. BOB MCNAB You’re not with that jockstrap. CATHY He’s a gentleman. BOB MCNAB Oh Malarkey. I know his father. And that’s not what I’ve heard. CATHY What? ... What’d you hear? BOB MCNAB He’s too old for you. 6. INT. SCHULTZ HOUSE - NIGHT (1973) Beef stew simmers on the stove in a dim, distant, poor home. Dave, RAY (20s), his stocky older brother, and THREE SISTERS (12,10,7), plus their MOTHER, PAULINE (40s), a heavy Ukrainian woman, all sit in silence as they slurp stew. Pauline glares at the one empty place setting. LATER THAT NIGHT - FAMILY ROOM A hockey portrait of DAVE’S FATHER (at age 19) playing for the CANADIAN ARMY TEAM hangs next to a smile-less wedding portrait on a cracked wall. Dave sleeps on a CHESTERFIELD. Anticipation wakes him. It’s dark. Pauline snores in a nearby chair. The door BANGS open. It’s DAVE’S FATHER, EDGAR (40s). Pauline wakes. Dave fakes sleep. Edgar shuffles in. He’s a burly grump in black-rimmed glasses and dirty coveralls. Drunk as a skunk. Pauline snaps to her feet. A stand-off. PAULINE What’s your excuse this time? Edgar slips past her like she’s nothing. PAULINE (CONT'D) Edgar. He goes to the ICE BOX. Grabs a BEER. Cracks it. Drinks. PAULINE (CONT'D) You’ve got to stop this. EDGAR Don’t you tell me nothin’. Pauline grabs a wooden spoon. Charges Edgar. He retreats around the table. She chases. Dave can’t take it. Jumps to action. Breaks it up. 7. DAVE Mum! For Chrissake! Stop it n’ go to bed! Finally, Pauline calms. Leaves for the bedroom. Edgar plops at the table. Sips beer. Like nothing happened. EDGAR You workout today? Dave pads over to a TRUNK in the family room. Takes out an OLD SCRAPBOOK. Shows his father an open page: THE PHILADELPHIA FLYERS LETTER taped in. EDGAR (CONT'D) What’s that? Dave points to the FLYERS LOGO. It takes Edgar a moment to process as Dave waits for approval. Edgar hands it back. Somber in his reaction. Dave’s disappointed. DAVE Did you read it? Edgar drinks. He’s somewhere else. EDGAR I could’ve made the big time, ya know. Had my chance. (Edgar rubs his hands together feeling the texture) Goddamn cement hands. (beat) You better make it. DAVE I’ll try. EDGAR Better do more than that. You wanna end up back here playing with your brother? 8. INT. SLAUGHTERHOUSE FARM - DAY (1973) Dave and Ray shovel guts from a slaughtered cow into a BIN. RAY scoops, switches the shovel to a hockey style. RAY He shoots... Shoots the guts at Dave. Dave dodges, but accidentally tips the bin. Blood & guts spill all over the floor. RAY (CONT'D) He scores! Dave shovels frantically. DAVE Jesus! Ray, help me! Ray (20s) laughs as Dave slips trying to contain the mess. RAY Better get used to it, eh. DAVE No thanks. EXT. MCNAB’S BACKYARD - NEXT DAY (1973) White picket fence. Lush green lawn. Veggie garden. Cathy waters sprouting carrot tops. On the back road, Dave pulls up in his beat up Plymouth.

  • Ayn Rand? Ayn Rand Ayn
    Who Is Ayn Rand? Ayn Rand Few 20th century intellectuals have been as influential—and controversial— as the novelist and philosopher Ayn Rand. Her thinking still has a profound impact, particularly on those who come to it through her novels, Atlas Shrugged and The Fountainhead—with their core messages of individualism, self-worth, and the right to live without the impositions of others. Although ignored or scorned by some academics, traditionalists, pro- gressives, and public intellectuals, her thought remains a major influence on Ayn Rand many of the world’s leading legislators, policy advisers, economists, entre- preneurs, and investors. INTRODUCTION AN Why does Rand’s work remain so influential? Ayn Rand: An Introduction illuminates Rand’s importance, detailing her understanding of reality and human nature, and explores the ongoing fascination with and debates about her conclusions on knowledge, morality, politics, economics, government, AN INTRODUCTION public issues, aesthetics and literature. The book also places these in the context of her life and times, showing how revolutionary they were, and how they have influenced and continue to impact public policy debates.

    Buffalo Sabres Daily Press Clips March 25, 2021 Sabres’ winless streak hits 15 as Penguins roll to 5-2 win By Will Graves Associated Press March 25, 2021 PITTSBURGH (AP) — The Pittsburgh Penguins are tired. They’re hurting. And in a way, they’re scrambling. Nothing a visit from the reeling Buffalo Sabres can’t fix. Sidney Crosby picked up his 13th goal of the season, Tristan Jarry stopped 26 shots and the Penguins extended Buffalo’s winless streak to 15 games with a 5-2 victory on Wednesday night. Evan Rodrigues, Kris Letang, John Marino and Zach Aston-Reese scored also for the Penguins, who recovered from a sluggish three-game set against New Jersey in which they managed just one victory by pouncing on the undermanned and overmatched Sabres. “We’re a close group, a very resilient group,” Marino said. “We’ve had a lot of come-from-behind wins, a lot of bounce-back wins (like tonight). It says a lot about the guys in the room.” Buffalo goalie Dustin Tokarski, making his first NHL start in more than five years with Carter Hutton out due to a lower-body injury, finished with 37 saves and kept the Sabres in it until late in the second period, when Marino and Aston-Reese scored just over 2 minutes apart to give the Penguins all the cushion required. Rasmus Dahlin scored his second goal of the season and Victor Olofsson beat Jarry on a penalty shot in the third period, but the NHL’s worst team remained in a tailspin.

Clint Malarchuk did that job while suffering high anxiety, depression, and obsessive compulsive disorder and had his career nearly literally cut short by a skate across his neck, to date the most gruesome injury hockey has ever seen. This autobiography takes readers deep into the troubled mind of Clint Malarchuk, the former NHL goaltender for the Quebec Nordiques, the Washington Capitals, and the Buffalo Sabres. When his carotid artery was slashed during a collision in the crease, Malarchuk nearly died on the ice. Forever changed, he struggled deeply with depression and a dependence on alcohol, which nearly cost him his life and left a bullet in his head. Now working as the goaltender coach for the Calgary Flames, Malarchuk reflects on his past as he looks forward to the future, every day grateful to have cheated death­twice. 9781629370491 Pub Date: 11/1/14 Author Bio Ship Date: 11/1/14 Clint Malarchuk was a goaltender with the Quebec Nordiques, the Washington Capitals, and the Buffalo Sabres. $25.95 Hardcover Originally from Grande Prairie, Alberta, he now divides his time between Calgary, where he is the goaltender coach for the Calgary Flames, and his ranch in Nevada.

    Annex of visual documents and links for LES “Who Controls the Puck” Please respect individual image and website licensing conditions, which vary depending on each source. NHL Hockey in the 1950s Their feeder system, which supplied all but a tiny percentage of talent 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, Maple Leafs or one of the others, he would remain the property 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 Winnipeg Warriors, 1955-56, ! more traditional than in the Province of Quebec, champions of the Western Hockey League! and farm team for the Canadians that same year!! where boys of French-Canadian heritage yearned to ! be happy serfs of the Canadiens.
