    Richard also slapped a linesman (ref) a few weeks before the Bruins incident, meaning Campbell could readily doubt that the March punch was not an accident. If you punch and umpire or referee in MLB, NFL, or NBA, you are going to be gone for awhile - including playoffs - regardless of national politics. After 1955, Richard's penalty minutes declined markedly.

    There's a high chance that we see another Vancouver riot in 2024. At the time of posting this comment they are leading Edmonton 1-0 in the 2nd round of the playoffs. They are three victories away from advancing to the Conference Finals. We may even see a rematch of the 1994 Stanley Cup Finals between the Vancouver Canucks & the New York Rangers.

    My great-uncle was in Montreal when this happened. He and his coworkers randomly dialed Jewish surnames from the phone book and warned them to gate their stores. He thought they were going to target the Jewish areas of the city. It didn't happen that way in the end. But the language and store sign laws ended up driving Jewish businesses out in the 1990's.

      @@Conservativelawyer Correction: No Canadian team has won a cup since Bettman is in charge of the NHL, right after 1993 when the Habs last got it. Coincidence? I don't think so, just watch how the games are ref in this year's playoff and you will understand there are two standards: one for US teams and another for Canadian teams.

      did he target the ref or just catch him with a couple of blows during a brawl with the other team? @2:20 it doesn't make it clear, sounds like he was fighting with another player after breaking his stick on the guy and caught the ref with a couple of shots during the brawl.
      like still doesn't get him off the hook but there's a big difference between punching the ref by mistake and punching the ref because you're aiming at him and have an axe to grind....nobody blames boxers when they catch the ref with a shot by mistake.

      @@Conservativelawyer You need to learn his history to really understand why he did that. Rocket was threated like shit by the NHL for many years. During that game, the ref was holding is arms behind his back and preventing him from defending himself while letting the bruins players punch him in the face.
      So no, it wasn't just that moment. After all those years, this game was what finally broke him and lose control.

    I love the rocket, great player, very dirty at times though
    People from Quebec have always been corrupt, whine and complain about everything while getting more than anyone else in the country for no reason.
    Organized crime has been rampid forever and the federal goverment just pours more money into the squeaky wheel.

      lol "I love the rocket" proceeds to insult his province and it's people. What does quebec receive more and don't even talk about equalization payments that is simply not true. Quebec is distinct from the rest of Canada you think we won't complain when little bigots like you love to insult us.

    • @hoozoohleague8264

      Very dirty? Boy you don't know a thing about what it was like to be french-canadian then. I worked a while in Toronto, I met a man who went to work regularly with his dad, who was security for the Leafs. He and his old man would let people get in with rotten vegetables, and the occasional jar of piss to throw at the Canadiens' ""fucking frogs"". Leafs, Bruins and Rangers ALL have players in their history who played below 50games in the NHL. They were only there to injure the Rocket. And who would suspend them for it? A commissioner with the "Order of the British Empire" ? 😆
      I've been on both sides of it: an english worker working in quebec, AND a french worker working in Alberta and Ontario. Just try to guess how many times I was assaulted, insulted or got the cops called on my ass for not speaking the language of the province I was in? Well you can scrap Alberta, my company lasted 3days here, some racist hobo tried to stab me and I was brought to the nearest police station for what I did in return (the policemen were very nice people thought). In Ontario they were more passive-aggressive, but I've been called all kinds of slurs (a french n"""er once, and I'm white as toilet paper). Meanwhile in Quebec it was always someone dumb trying their best to speak English with me ("do you water in a glass mister?"). That was in the early 2000s. Imagine for the Rocket in the 50s 😂😂 I think Ontario just made it legal for people of color to go to the beach then. And they hated frenchies way more lmao.
      Look in your own fuckin backyard before saying shit like corrupt and dirty, you won't like what you see. And one last thing, the last time we tried to get our independence, the federal government did everything in its power to keep Quebec in the fold. Including but not limited to breaking its own immigration policies. Surely it can't be such a drag to keep us here if they'd go to such lengths for a province which still hasn't signed the new Canadian Constitution of 82.
