  • “To Tend Goal for the Greatest Junior Team Ever” – Ted Tucker, Former
    “To tend goal for the greatest junior team ever” – Ted Tucker, former California Golden Seals and Montreal Junior Canadiens goalie by Nathaniel Oliver - published on August 30, 2016 Three of them won the Stanley Cup. One is in the Hockey Hall of Fame. Arguably three more should be. Six were NHL All-Star selections. Each one of them played professional hockey, whether it was in the NHL, WHA, or in the minors – they all made it to the pro level. And I am fortunate enough to have one of the two goaltenders for the 1968-69 Montreal Junior Canadiens – the team still widely considered the greatest junior hockey team of all time – to be sharing his story with me. Edward (Ted) William Tucker was born May 7th, 1949 in Fort William, Ontario. From his earliest moments of playing street hockey or shinny, Ted Tucker wanted to be a goaltender. Beginning to play organized hockey at the age of nine, there was minimal opportunity to start the game at a younger age. “At the time that I started playing hockey, there were no Tom Thumb, Mites, or Squirts programs in my hometown. There was a small ad in our local newspaper from the Elks organization, looking for players and asking which position you preferred to play. I asked my parents if I could sign up, and right from the get-go I wanted to be a goalie”. As a youngster, Tucker’s play between the pipes would take some time to develop, though improvement took place each year as he played.

  • Paris Talks Recess
    Paris talks recess KEY BISCAYNE, FLORIDA (AP)--President Nixon received Henry Kissinger's report on his Paris negotiations yesterday, and then ordered a trusted aide to fly to Saigon to tell President Nguyen Van Thieu of secret steps toward peace in Vietnam. The quick trip to South Vietnam by Gen. Alexander M. Haig Jr., Nixon's chief liason with Thieu, was seen as another sign that a peace agreement might be near. But as Nixon met at his bayside villa with Kissinger and Haig, the White House refused to amplify on Kiss- inger's statement Saturday before leaving Paris that his six days of talks with the North Vietnamese had 0 been "very extensive and very useful." Presidential Press SecretaryRonald L. Ziegler said Haig left Florida for Saigon yesterday evening to "discuss the current status of negotiations with Pres- l4 ident Thieu." Ziegler said Haig would confer with leaders of three (See TALKS page 2) Darkness before the dawn? (AP NEWS ANALYSIS)--Some of the things happening these days seem to tempt even cautious observers to reach for the old bromide about darkness before dawn, despite the frustrating contradictions strewing the path to peace in Vietnam. The outlook was dark, indeed, when Henry Kissinger and Le Duc Tho got back together. After the first week of resumed negotiation, there remained no visible- sign t** of a break. But the answer to peace may be as much in Moscow and Peking as in Hanoi and Washington, and some things now stick out like the proverbial sore thumbs. First, many domestic and foreign matters clamor for the Nixon administration's attention.

  • Jordan Will Play Big Role in Geneva Talks Unresolved
    r U. S. NAVAL BASE, GUANTANAMO BAY, CUBA Wednesday, January 2, 1974 JORDAN WILL PLAY BIG ROLE IN GENEVA TALKS AMMAN, Jordan (AP)--Jordan's key role in a Middle East peace settlement was overshadowed in the fury of the October war and subsequent emphasis on the Suez Canal and Golan Heights positions. But it will become increasingly clear in 1974 as the Geneva talks progress. Jordan now has the best chance it has ever had of regaining the major Arab territory lost in the 1967 war--the rich and populous West Bank of the Jordan River. It is also struggling to avert the possibility of losing it again to a Palestinian state established in an overall peace settlement. Coincidence of interests makes Israel its unwanted ally in Jordan's struggle against the rest of the Arab world to see that this Palestinian state does not come into being. In this, the two nations may have the support of influential western nations, whose officials here see a Palestinian state as internally unstable, a focus of powerful outside interests and the potential trigger of new Mideast dramas. Jordanian and Israeli military experts will sit down in Geneva in January to start negotiations on dis- engagement of forces. Essentially, this means an Israeli pull-back in the West Bank, along the Jordan River. Authorities here say that as the Israelis withdraw, Jordanian civil administrators, and presumably police, will return to their duties, though in the presence of United Nations observers. But the first steps of Jordanian officials back into KING HUSSEIN the West Bank are sure to raise new protests from .,,wants West Bank (See JORDAN, Page 2) UNRESOLVED ISSUES AWAIT CONGRESS AFTER RECESS that could be used if the WASHINGTON (AP)--A mass of unre- rather than start all over again as rationing is passed.

  • Season IV: 1975-1976
    Season IV: Jets Capture First Crown Tardif & Cloutier Scoring Stars 1975-1976 Fighting Mars League Image The World Hockey Association opened its fourth season with high hopes after Award Winners three previous seasons of steadily increasing attendance figures. Two teams would not be back for the 1975-76 campaign: the Chicago Cougars folded immediately after the previous season’s end, and the Baltimore Blades ceased operations not long after. In their places were two expansion franchises: the Cincinnati Stingers and the Denver Spurs. There was just one franchise shift: the Vancouver Blazers moved across the Rockies to Calgary, becoming the Cowboys. The fourteen teams were divided into three divisions. Calgary, Edmonton, Québec, Toronto and Winnipeg made up the Canadian Division; Cincinnati, Cleveland, Indianapolis and New England comprised the Eastern Division, Most Valuable Player Rookie of the Year Gordie Howe Trophy Lou Kaplan Trophy while the Western Division included Denver, Houston, Minnesota, Phoenix and Marc Tardif Mark Napier San Diego. Québec Toronto Denver’s Spurs could not make it to the new year; they vacated Denver at the end of December, played two home games in Ottawa in early January 1976, and disbanded altogether two weeks later. Six weeks after Ottawa’s departure, the Minnesota Fighting Saints folded, paring the league to twelve teams. The patchwork schedule used for the remainder of the season saw some teams play 81 games so that other teams could reach 80. Disparities abounded: Québec and Toronto tangled 16 times, while Winnipeg and San Diego squared off on only three occasions. Best Goaltender Best Defenseman Winnipeg and Québec fought hard for the top spot in the Canadian Division, Ben Hatskin Trophy Dennis Murphy Trophy Winnipeg squeaking ahead with 106 points, two ahead of Québec.
