  • For the Record
    FOR THE RECORD MESSAGE FROM PRESIDENT HUGH VASSOS We are entering a new era in the life of the Saskatchewan Sports Hall of Fame. We need to make improvements in virtually all areas of our operations while focusing on our core business…the preservation and education of this province’s rich and proud sports history. Now is the time for everyone with a vested interest in the Hall of Fame to step forward and do their part to make this a better place. Our Board of Directors and Staff are leading the way. Over the past few months we have reviewed the way we are currently operating and developed a plan for the way we need and want to work from this point forward. On April 16th we announced the first of these plans including a new visual identity that replaces a dated logo with a more dynamic image that better reflects our new attitude and sense of direction for the future. A new online presence and domain name (www.sasksportshalloffame.com) that adopts a more contemporary look and meshes with our social media applications (@SaskSportsHF and www.facebook.com/SaskSportsHF). In order to put our new Strategic Plan into motion it will take resources and that’s where you come in. We have made the decision to create our own destiny and have launched an exciting new self-help program entitled the Sports Investors Club. This program is poised to generate up to 50% of our operating revenue while allowing us to also start funding new exhibits and programs.

    John K. Samson PO Box 83‐971 Corydon Avenue Winnipeg, Manitoba R3M 3S3 February 23, 2013 Mr. Bill Hay, Chairman of the Board, and Members of the Selection Committee The Hockey Hall of Fame 30 Yonge Street Toronto, Ontario M5V 1X8 Dear Mr. Bill Hay, Chairman of the Board, and Members of the Selection Committee, Hockey Hall of Fame; In accordance with the Hockey Hall of Fame’s Policy Regarding Public Submission of Candidates Eligible for Election into Honoured Membership, please accept this bona‐fide submission putting forth the name Reggie Joseph Leach for your consideration. A member of the Berens River First Nation, Reggie Joseph Leach was born in 1950 in Riverton, Manitoba. While facing the injustices of racism and poverty, and playing on borrowed skates for much of his childhood, Leach’s terrific speed and honed shooting skills earned him the nickname “The Riverton Rifle.” He went on to become one of the most gifted and exciting hockey players of his generation. His pro‐hockey accomplishments are truly impressive: two‐time NHL All Star, Conn Smythe Trophy winner (the only non‐goalie from a losing team to ever win it), 1975 Stanley Cup winner, 1976 Canada Cup winner, and Regular Season Goal Scoring Leader, to name a few. His minor league record is remarkable, too. As a legendary member of the MJHL/WCJHL Flin Flon Bombers, Mr. Leach led the league in goal‐scoring twice, and was placed on the First All‐ Star team every season he played. The statistical analysis in the pages that follow, prepared by Phil Russell of Dozen Able Men Data Design (Ottawa, Ontario), makes a clear and persuasive case that Mr.
