Thanks Jeff (and David)....this piece has a special meaning for me: The prior year (1941) my great uncle, also a 'Maurice', briefly centred a line with Richard / Blake in the Quebec Senior Hockey League for a couple of games. This was the farm team for the Canadiens for several years.
Ultimately he ended up heading south and playing professionally in the USHL (where he knocked a 17 y/o Gordie Howe out of a game with a stick to the head!) and later the PCHL.
