  • The Following Transcript of Red Hamill's Interview on Memories And
    The following transcript of Red Hamill’s interview on Memories and Music (broadcast September 5, 1982) was created by Videoplus Transcription Services in 2013. Page 1 00:00:00 Track starts. SCOTT TURNBULL: Good afternoon and welcome to Memories and Music on CIGM FM 92.7 Sudbury. I’m your musical host, Scott Turnbull and joining us now with an introduction to today’s guest, here’s Gary Peck. GARY PECK: Today our guest will be Red Hamill. Red Hamill played professional hockey from approximately the 1937/38 season until the 1950/51 season playing for initially the Boston Bruins, latterly the Chicago Blackhawks. And also, Red Hamill has been involved in local sports. And today our guest is Robert Hamill, better known as Red Hamill. And welcome to the program, Mr. Hamill. RED HAMILL: Thank you. GARY PECK: Red, you were involved in professional hockey for a number of years and that’s really what we’re going to focus on today in the program. But before we actually concentrate on that aspect of your life, would you share with us some biographical information beginning where you were born, when, what general area, and follow through from there? RED HAMILL: Well, Gary, I was born in Toronto, 1917 and I spent my first 15 years there in Toronto with the family and then I moved north to get a job. That was during the depression years, 34/35 and I went up to South Porcupine. I got the job up there in the mine because I had a little talent as a hockey player.

  • Longest Matches in NHL Playoff History
    Longest Matches in NHL Playoff History In the NHL, teams play three 20-minute periods of hockey. If the score is tied at the end of the three periods then a five minute overtime period is played. If there is no score at the end of overtime period then a shoot out settles the game. During the Stanley Cup Playoffs there are no shoot outs. If two teams are tied at the end of regulation then 20-minute overtime periods are played sudden death style until a team scores a goal. Once a goal is scored in overtime the game is over. If a goal is not scored in an overtime period then additional 20-minute overtime periods are played until a team scores. This overtime process can result in some very long playoff games! A regulation NHL game is 60 minutes of actual hockey, which takes about 2 hours and 30 minutes to play when you add in timeouts and intermissions. The table below gives the longest NHL games in history. The minutes of OT (overtime) does not include the regular 60 minutes of game play.

Eisenhower's strategy to smash Field Marshal Gerd von Rundstedt's great winter offensive into Belgium and Luxem- burg came last night from German News Agency, which interrupted its pro- gram with a "flash" that Lt. Gen. George S. Patton's Third Army had struck on the Nazis' left flank and succeeded in slowing down the drive into the First Army's lines. There was no confirmation at SHAEF of this enemy report, only hinted at in previous German broadcasts, which claimed that the Americans were hitting at both flanks of the Nazi penetration along a 60-mile front stretching from Belgium to southern Luxemburg. Telling of the fighting, German News Agency said: "A particularly grim struggle is being waged on the southern flank, where the German spearheads, heading southwest, had to defend them- selves against increasingly furious counter-attacks by several divisions of the U.S. 3rd Army." Dispatches from the 21st Army Group HQ had disclosed earlier that the Ger- mans' deepest penetration of the lines was 40 miles, but did not mention a specific area.
