Fans of the game of hockey donate their prized possessions to the museum for safekeeping, where they are quickly documented and the conservation process started.

History 4 HOCKEY HALL OF FAME EDUCATION PROGRAM

Triumph and Tragedy

Hall Visit: The following is a true story of hockey and the tragedy of victory. This particular account was written by James Duplacey for a hockey card

and became the inspiration for a song titled ‘ by the

musical group, ‘‘.’’

Although he was not noted for his offensive skills, scored one of the most celebrated goals in NHL history during the 1951 Stanley Cup finals between Toronto and Montreal. This series was the only championship final that required in every contest. In game five, the extra session was nearly three minutes old when Barilko spotted a loose puck near the Montreal crease. He dove in from the blue line and fired a shot over Montreal goaltender Gerry McNeil’s outstretched arm to give the Leafs the Cup. Unfortunately, it was the last goal of Barilko’s career. He disappeared that summer on a fishing trip, and the Leafs didn’t win another Cup until 1962, the year his body was found.

There are many stories of Hockey Hall of Fame members who inspired the game by their play but experienced tragedy in their playing career. Look up one of the following players and find the information that is inspirational or tragic: Howie Morenz, and Gordon ‘‘Mr. Hockey’’ Howe. Information can be obtained on the computer terminals in the MCI Great Hall. ______

Parts of Speech

Noun: a word used as the name of a person, place, thing or event.

Verb: word that expresses action or a state of being.

Adjective: word that describes a noun.

Adverb: word used to describe action.

Words On Ice Hockey is a rather unique sport. It combines the fast-paced action of basketball with the calculated strategy of baseball and the grace of figure skating. As a profession, it also has a distinct vocabulary, one which has been described as ‘‘.... a kind of working poetry of the rink.’’ Words such as ‘grinder’ or ‘checker’ describe a player’s role while a ‘wrap-a-round’ or ‘spin-a-rama’ refers to a play on the ice.

The game has also used adjectives and nouns to characterize its most colourful athletes. The Big Train and Boom Boom are just a sample of many nicknames used to describe players. Some players are better known for their nickname than their real one: , Gump Worsley and Moose Vasko.

Forward line combinations have also received such colourful acclaim as The Bread Line and The Triple Crown Line. Even the style of hockey is not excluded from the literary pen. ‘Firewagon’ hockey and a team being described as the Big Bad Bruins are just two examples.

While you are walking about the Hall look for and write down examples of these colourful descriptions of action, players, lines and teams. Beside each expression, try explaining the possible reasons for the word. Be prepared to share your findings with the class. ______

5. Perimeter of bar = length + width + length + width 240 + 120 + 240 + 120 = 720cm 28 glass panels x 720cm = 20,160cm Total amount of bar required: 20,160cm

6. Cost of bar = amount of bar required x cost of bar (per metre) 201.6m x $15.00 = $3,024.00

Occupied area = (area of glass panel x number of filled glass panels) + (area of glass plate x number of remaining plates)
