A few years in Hersey, some hard work helped Hextall reach his a ultimate goal of the NHL. After a couple years in the NHL Hextall created a name for himself, Hextall wasn't afraid to fight. He would do anything to help his team capture a win. In 1987-88 Hextall made NHL history by becoming the first goalie to score a goal. He had shot the puck from his crease down the ice and into the open net. This task is very difficult to complete and he is one of few to do it.

For example after putting up 275 points in one season parents made a petition to make kick Sidney out of the league. To solve this problem Sidney got put into a league where the guys were 2-3 years older than him. That season Sid put up 200 points. It was clear that Sidney would be a first round pick in the NHL.

    The language barrier between the French and English speaking people played a huge role in French Canadian discrimination. At the time, the control of Quebec's economic sphere had largely been dominated by English Canadian and American investors. This is demonstrated at the very beginning of the film, when a 17 year old Maurice rushes from his grinding machine shop job to the championship game at an outdoor rink because his Anglophone boss kept him late as punishment for talking to a French union activist. This language barrier continues into Richard's hockey career. The Montreal Canadian players mention in the film that none of the coaches, managers and owners spoke French. They are only given instructions in English, and when they do not reply or understand they are viewed as unintelligent. This is evident when Maurice Richard ties Joe Malone's 27 year old record of 44 goals in a season. The newspaper article the next day read to Maurice Richard by…

    The 1972 Canada-Soviet Hockey Series was perhaps the most dramatic sports event in Canadian history. Before the series came into being, the Soviet 's demonstrated that they were a tower of strength by winning 11 of 12 Olympic and World Championships from 1963 to 1973. However, Canadians believed that the Soviets would lose to Canadian professionals. The 1972 Super Series was the opportunity for Canada 's "best" to prove their dominance over the Soviets. Charles Hay (President Hockey Canada 1972) was quoted by saying, "At long last we are challenging the Soviets with a team of Canada 's best hockey players, and share with all Canadians our pride in being represented by this superb group of young men playing our national game." This series would put the Soviet "amateurs" against Canada 's professionals. It has made a huge part of history in Canadian hockey and will be remembered for years to come.…

    Captain Canuck Essay

    • 532 Words

    There have been many versions of Captain Canuck since the birth of the original comic book in 1975. Captain Canuck was created in a wholly Canadian fashion, from the images presented in the comic itself: “From futuristic Mounties to a maple-leaf emblazoned snowmobile, Comely incorporated numerous Canadian references,” (Edwardson 190); to the matter in which it was produced – almost completely vertically integrated in a Canadian manner (minus the American distribution company). And while the idea nationalism was rampant in the 1970s, there obviously was not enough enthusiasm, though praised heavily by Edwardson, to keep the comic going for more than three issues. Even though the Canadian edition of TIME magazine praised its “Canadianness”, it was also criticized for its art style as being amateur. I think this aligns strongly with how much of Canadian media is criticized: we are proud of it because its Canadian but it’s also pretty amateur in nature. This is seen not only in comic books, but also in radio, TV, film, art, etc.…
