  • “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.

  • Jaromir Jagr, the Skater
    Jaromir Jagr, the Skater by Ross Bonander January 2014 As a member of The Hockey Writers draft team, I often hear about skating ability from scouts. It tends to be the first thing they look at, although, as Shane Malloy writes in The Art of Scouting, that doesn't mean they all agree on its importance from the scouting perspective. This is in part because, unlike something like size, skating is a skill which players can improve. The 2013-14 season marks Jaromir Jagr’s 25th year of professional hockey, and he is methodically working his way up the all-time scoring lists, all while leading his latest team, the New Jersey Devils, in points. This got me wondering: Perhaps throughout the 1700+ NHL points he’s accumulated, the take-you-out-of-your- seat stickhandling, the jaw-dropping dekes and sensational goals, maybe one aspect of Jagr's game deserved a closer look. Jaromir Jagr, the Skater. The great Eddie Johnston once echoed a sentiment expressed by everyone from Mario Lemieux to Scotty Bowman when he said: “I don’t know any player who is stronger on his skates than Jaromir Jagr. One on one, there has never been a player so dangerous.” For instance, in collecting his 1,723rd career point, an assist on an Adam Henrique goal, Jaromir Jagr victimized defenseman Nick Grossman in classic Jagr fashion: With fast hands, long reach, impeccable hockey sense … and all of it powered from, made possible by, his skates. After watching video both new and old, I concluded that for all the spectacular goals Jagr has scored, almost none of them would be possible were he anything short of one of the very best skaters in the game.

  • Goaltending Newsletter
    Goaltending Newsletter Prepared for Marblehead Youth Hockey By Joe Bertagna, Bertagna Goaltending Issue #5 - November 12, 2014 What does it mean to “know how to play goal”? Many years ago, I walked out of a college hockey game in which the goalie made close to 50 saves in an acrobatic performance, winning the contest by a 4-3 score. An NHL scout who left the game along side of me remarked, “That goalie is pretty good. He will be even better when he learns how to play the position.” I wasn’t sure what he meant at the time. How could the guy make all those saves and not know “how to play the position”? All these years later, I think I understand the distinction. Some goalies, particularly at younger levels, can succeed on the strength of pure athleticism and reflexes. Eventually, the shooters against which we play will get better. Their shots will be harder and more accurate. Their release better disguised. Try- ing to succeed by waiting and simply beating the puck to an open space will prove more challenging against bantams and beyond. Goalies in our area are fortunate to have a variety of options when it comes to finding goalie coaches. But can you find one who teaches more than technique? Learning a series of techniques is important but it is not the same as learning how to play goal. There is a mental component, a strategy component, that is key. A goalie has to know which techniques to employ and when. And more to the point of this essay, the goalie has to see the game in such a way that he reads or antici- pates what is about to happen.

  • Guy Lapointe
    Guy Lapointe Guy was a member of a triumvirate of defensemen the likes of which will never exist on one team again – with Larry Robinson and Serge Savard. All 3 are members of the Hockey Hall of Fame. Guy made the Montreal Canadiens to stay, after a few games with the big club the two previous seasons, in 1970-71. He won the Stanley Cup that first season. After only his second season in the league, he was named to Team Canada in 1972 to play in the Summit Series versus the USSR. Guy played in 7 of the 8 series games. He won the cup for the second time in the 1972-73 season and then captured 4 more cups with the Habs’ dynasty that dominated the league from 1975-76 to 1978-79. Guy was big and strong enough to play a solid defensive game. But he was also wildly talented offensively –witness his 76 points in 77 games in 1976-77 and is 28 goals in 1975-76, all as a defenseman, of course. And he had 3 consecutive seasons of 20+ goals. In 1981-82, the Habs traded Guy to the St. Louis Blues where he played for a season and a half before ending his career with a final season with the Boston Bruins. Guy was known to keep his team loose with his practical jokes and sense of humour. Guy was elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1993. He was a First Team All Star in 1973 and a Second Team All Star in 1975, 1976 and 1977.

  • Western Canada Wasn't Kind to Scotty Bowman
    Memories of Sport By Kent Morgan (courtesy of Canstar Community News) Western Canada wasn't kind to Scotty Bowman When Scotty Bowman was beginning his Hall of Fame coaching career, Western Canada was not welcoming. In 1957 Bowman came west with the Ottawa Canadiens as general manager and coach Sam Pollock's assistant. The powerful Montreal Canadiens sponsored team was highly favoured to beat the upstart Flin Flon Bombers in the Canadian junior final, but Bombers prevailed in a series that went seven games. The next season when the Memorial Cup final was played in the east, the pair were in charge of the renamed Ottawa-Hull Canadiens. After knocking off Toronto Marlboros in the eastern final, Ottawa-Hull met another Montreal farm squad, the Regina Pats, and won the Canadian junior championship in six games. In 1959, the 25-year-old Bowman was in charge of a different Habs farm squad, the Peterborough TPT Petes. The Ontario champions - with future NHLers Wayne Connelly, Jimmy Roberts, Barclay Plager and Denis DeJordy - in the lineup beat Pollock's Ottawa- Hull squad in the Eastern final. Bowman had to bring his team west to Winnipeg where a somewhat-surprising opponent was waiting for them. The Winnipeg Braves had won the MJHL championship over another Montreal- sponsored squad, the St. Boniface Canadiens, and reached the Western final by beating the Fort William Canadiens. Flin Flon led by River Heights product Cliff Pennington, the SJHL scoring champion and most valuable player, was heavily favoured in the final. The Bombers won the first two games in Flin Flon, 5-1 and 7-4.
