Hello, everybody!
A few days while I was talking with historian Michel Vigneault sport, I was part of a new blog on the history of hockey in Quebec City. Today, by browsing my e-mails, I noticed a message from Marc Durand, a journalist with Radio-Canada.
Marc Durand is an avid history, hockey and the city of Quebec. He is the author of a blog named in honour of the hockey team in Quebec Bulldogs.
Particularly well illustrated, this blog we do know a little-known facet of the National Capital. Having aims to publish a book and produce a documentary on the Quebec team in 2012, Marc Durand delivers his blog as evidence of its commitment.
There is no doubt, a blog to follow with interest!

The benefits of sport (4)
Hello, everybody!
The recent misadventure of hockey Richard Zednik demonstrates how sport can be dangerous on the occasion.
In October 1956, Raymond Best goaltender for the team hotel in the league Laurentien "" Four Little stopped a shot with his face. At that time, cerbères do not yet have protective mask. The poor player, knocked covered in blood and was taken to the Royal Victoria Hospital. It is then that the bone of his upper jaw was fractured in three places. Ouch!
Fortunately for the goalkeepers hockey, Jacques Plante is courageous when he chooses to wear a mask in order to perform their duties. This event takes place on 1 November 1959. In the aftermath of a shooting, Jacques Plante suffered a broken nose. After care and multiple stitches, he informed his coach that he was ready to return to game condition to wear his mask. Toe Blake did have a choice. For several years, he refuses to its custodian port of this piece of equipment. At this historic game, Blake accepts ill will, because teams have only one goalkeeper at the time.
Over the years, hockey equipment has continued to be refined to ensure the safety of players. Damage to Zednik who was not wearing a neck protector.
Photo: The masked guard. On April 10, 1955 at page 84, Le Petit Journal publishes a photo of goaltender Ed Kissell. Under the photo caption: "This plastic mask is worn by Ed Kissell of the Junior League of Cleveland. It serves to protect figure against pucks bounce. One would have thought at first glance that Kissell was a man of the planet Mars. "
