TODAY’S TRAINING INSPIRATION:
HENRI RICHARD
Today’s Colin Timberlake Training Inspiration is the greatest winner the National Hockey League has ever known.
Henri Richard, the “Pocket Rocket” played much of his career in the shadow of his famous brother, Maurice “Rocket” Richard. But by the time his career was said and done, he had skated his way out of that long shadow and set perhaps the most enviable record one can hold in the game.
Henri Richard played a total of 1,256 regular season games, scoring 1,046 points during an era where the 1,200-game and 1,000-point barriers were even harder to break through than they are today.
He played twenty seasons, all four of them with the Montreal Canadiens, and contributed greatly to the legacy of the legendary team. He set and NHL record by winning 11 Stanley Cups with the team as a player, a mark that nobody is likely to ever equal.
He scored 49 goals and 129 points in his playoff career, and played in 10 All-Star Games. He won the Bill Masterton Trophy for perseverance and dedication in 1974, and was named the post-season All-Star Team four times. In 1957-58, he was 2nd in the NHL in scoring.
