Documentary about Hockey Legend Maurice "The Rocket" Richard (2000)
Maurice "The Rocket" Richard, one of the greatest scorers in NHL history, Richard was the first player to score 50 goals in a season
No one fired up fans the way "The Rocket" did. Heck, he once caused a city to riot.
Maurice Richard was the essence of hockey in its golden age. The 5-foot-10, 170-pound Richard had those eyes that seemed black as coal, that blinding speed, that devastating shot, that nasty streak, that passion to vanquish every opponent.
Maurice Richard won eight Stanley Cups with Montreal.
These were the ingredients that enabled him to become the first National Hockey League player to score 500 goals in a career. He also was first to score 50 goals in a season. Eight times he was first-team all-league and six times second-team. Although he never led the league in scoring, he was the leading goal scorer five times. His NHL record of six playoff overtime goals is testament to his ability in the clutch. Eight of his 18 seasons ended with him skating around the rink holding the Stanley Cup.
He was also a role model for French Canadians, who regarded him the way African-Americans would later regard Muhammad Ali -- as a hero.
