————–
On this date in hockey history, March 7th, 1951, Scotty Bowman was seriously injured playing for the Montreal Junior Canadiens. Bowman was on a breakaway with 30 seconds left in a playoff game against the Shawinigan Falls Cataracts when he was slashed in the head from behind by Shawinigan defenseman Jean Guy Talbot.
Players in the 1950’s did not wear helmets and the blow sliced Bowman’s head open. The crowd at the Montreal Forum was stunned into silence as Bowman lay on the ice next to a piece of his skull.
But young Scotty Bowman had already dodged tragedy. As a youth, Bowman returned from a year long stay in Scotland with his mother on a ship named the Athena. On it’s way back to Scotland, the ship was torpedoed and sunk by a German submarine.
Bowman was taken to the hospital where a metal plate was placed in his skull which was sewn back together. A comeback was unsuccessful and Bowman prepared for life without hockey as a paint salesman.
Scotty was well known to Sam Pollock in his Montreal neighborhood of Notre Dame de Grace for his organizational skills with baseball and hockey teams. Pollock was then the GM of the Montreal Jr. Canadiens and he hired Bowman to coach the juniors and the rest is history

Worst season of Hank’s career and he still has 30 wins with several more possible. I also read somewhere that he has been named the 1st star of the game more than any other NHL player this year. So while he certainly had his struggles, most notably in December and January, and his numbers aren’t at his career norms, I think it’s fair to say that Hank is still an “elite” goalie. And I agree totally with Carp that if we go anywhere in the playoffs it will be on his back. Hank’s naysayers point to the Pitt series last year as evidence of his “decline.” Maybe so. But I think it is worth remembering that he played great in the first 3 games of that series. He stopped the first 10 shots he saw in Game 1, giving up a goal after getting the stick in his eye (and in hindsight he should have come out right then). Games 2 and 3 he had a 2.0 GAA and a .934 SV%. Games 4 and 5 were a team wide collapse and he was the most visible face of it. So I am not so sure that that series is evidence he is in a decline. Maybe he’s not as good as he was in 2012, but in my book he is still the right guy in net night after night especially in April and beyond.

Glass to the rescue. Someone went to the wizard and brought back some heart to this team. His screen on Hold-on goal was very good hockey play, completely blinded the goalie. He also had a nice break out of the D-zone stick handling up and threading a nice pass up the middle to Oscar who dumped it in. Did not see that in the last 2 seasons.
.
The reality is this team needs another 2way banger to go with Glass and Oscar.
.
Nash on pace for 24 goals at least passed the puck more than once tonite and got his 15th assist.

SN, if you’re sold on Glass after these two games, I give you credit for die-hard optimism, and I hope you’re right. I only saw his not-good 5 mins. at TB and 2-3 unimpressive shifts in this one. (Also replays of his somewhat farcical goal, his terrible D on the Vanek goal, and his excellent screen on the Holden shot.) I don’t think it’s sustainable at all, but hope I’m wrong!

The effort is getting better. Still have to cut down on the chances allowed. Can’t be sure to win the goalie battle every night. The PP is still awful. It’s the execution- not the other team’s PK. They can’t make or receive passes on the PP. At least Papa John has to pay off today. Their PK also really misses Fast and Grabner. Goalie really has to be the best PKer now. Looks like getting Kampher for MCI was making the best of a bad situation. He can play in the league. MCI maybe not.
