Big Jean Brought Dignity To Game
He’s done just about everything one can do in hockey. Le Gros Bill—Jean Beliveau, the stylish, elegant center who set the standard for class when he played for the Montreal Canadiens in a career that spanned 18 years. Beliveau is still with the club, working as its senior vice-president of corporate affairs. Beliveau became a legend in his own time when he played for the Habs, scoring 507 goals and 1,219 points in 1,125 games, twice winning the Hart Trophy, as well as the Art Ross and Conn Smythe trophies once each. He was elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1972. It almost reads like a history book, which is not too surprising, given his team and era. Beliveau was an integral part of the Montreal Canadiens during their finest years—from 1955-56…

Reinhart Is Back On The Sidelines
CALGARY FLAMES CALGARY—In September, on the fourth day of training camp, Paul Reinhart was asked—as a matter of course—to discuss his sometimes troubling back injury. “You know,” said Reinhart, sounding as confident as anyone with a herniated disc can sound, “1 don’t even think about it anymore. That’s not to say I don’t take care of it, but it doesn’t really bother me; It’s really good.” Spoken too soon, as it turned out. Nine days before the start of the regular season, Reinhart started feeling the twinges again. Five days before the start of the season, Reinhart was feeling more than just twinges. His back was aching. The injury that knocked Reinhart out of the lineup twice and forced him to undergo surgery during the 1983-84 season was—to put it as precisely as possible—back again. On…
QUAKER STATE ROOKIE PROFILES
Defenseman David Shaw of the Quebec Nordiques has come a long way in a short time. “Last year he had a tough training camp,” recalls Nordiques general manager Maurice Filion. “We had our doubts, he didn’t show us much.” So, the Nordiques sent him to Fredericton Express of the American League. The move was a good one. Shaw excelled defensively to earn team rookie-of-the-year honors and another crack at the big team. And this time around the 21-year-old native of St. Thomas, Ont., made the most of an opportunity to play in the National Hockey League. As Filion says, Shaw just played too well to be cut. He’s continued his strong performance during the regular season, helping Quebec’s overshadowed blueline brigade put together one of the league’s better goals-against averages. Partnered with Mario Marois most of…
