TERRACE BAY NEWS Page .9 MC ae) ; Three good reasons John, Henry and Ralph. Sounds like three ordinary names for three ordinary fel- lows. How about Jean, Henri and Ralph. Ahh, you're getting warm. Two French-Canadians and one English chap -- well, that's closer yet. Okay, the animal, vegetable or mineral guessing game is over. John, Henry and Ralph are the key components in that precision tool known as the Montreal Canadiens, or if you prefer, Les Habitants. This trio is a delicate mix- ture of grace, ability, speed, determination, wizardry and toughness blended perfectly together. Jean Beliveau, Henri Ri- chard and Ralph Backstrom are the three centres with Montreal Canadiens, currently battling to remain as rightful owners of the Stanley Cup. These three dandies were at their scintillating best during the semi-final waltz against the New York Rangers, Broad- way's biggest bust since Mae West. Although the scores didn't indicate Montreal's superiority in most departments, New York was a smashed opponent. And you don't have to look long at the Montreal lineup without coming up with the reason why. Almost anyone connected with any sport will tell you that for a team to reign as champion it must have strength down the middle: catcher, pitcher and _ centre- fielder in baseball; centre, quarterback and fullback in football; goalie, centre forward and centre half in soccer, and in hockey you must have three better-than-average centres with strong goaltending. Beliveau was just regaining his puise after a season of tough injuries when the semis opened. When the large Mont- real captain is healthy there is nobody more adept at organiz- ing and controlling a power play, Gordie Howe and Pierre Pilote included. Beliveau takes faceoffs, roams the slot, fore- checks tenaciously in the cor- ners and is definitely the king- pin of the attack. Le Gros Bill terrorizes op- posing coaches when he slides around inside the blueline waiting for one of the enemy to accept the bait and chase him. When this happens you can look for another Canadien te be left unprotected waiting for the puck from Beliveau. Pride makes Henri Richard one of the most feared centres in the National Hockey League. Knock him down or make a fool of him and he's suddenly as dangerous and le- thal as a rattler fighting for its young. Richard's whippet-like speed also makes him a res- pected foe and his _ puck- handling is above that of most NHL'ers. Although dimunitive in stature, his heart weighs 100 pounds and his pride car- ries him many inches above his foe. After all, Richard is the younger brother of one of the NHL's_ outstanding competi- tors, the incomparable Rocket. Ralph Backstrom had a frus- trating season of hit goalposts, misséd nets, lost pucks and just plain bad luck. The plucky third centre of the Montreal machine said just before the semi-finals began that it was just like a new season for. him. The 70 game pressure cooker had come to an end and the 21 game schedule was under- way. Since the opener in Montreal Backstrom has played with the speed of a greyhound to ac- commodate his pit bull's atti- tude. He has been a command- ing figure whenever coach Toe Blake sends him over the boards. Backstrom has played the strongest two-way hockey of the three and has definitely inspired many of the so-called lesser lights on the Habitant roster with his spirited play. To become world champions in any sport a team must have strength down the middle. Nuff said.
