On March 13, 1955, Bruins defenseman Hal Lycoe hit an opponent in the head with his stick, and this player—who had previously been forced by league president Clarence Campbell to post a $1,000 “good-behaviour bond” after violent on-ice outbursts—retaliated by slashing Lycoe’s head and then punching a linesman twice in the face, knocking the man unconscious. Boston police attempted to arrest the player after the game, but were barred at the locker room door by his teammates and eventually talked down by Bruins team officials. The player was nevertheless suspended by Campbell for the remainder of the season, including the playoffs. Four days later, against advice, Campbell attended a game in the player’s city, and was pelted with vegetables, punched by a fan, and finally targeted with a tear gas bomb that forced the venue to evacuate. A riot ensued outside that caused $100,000 worth of damage and forced the player to make a radio plea for peace. Who was this player?
Maurice "Rocket" Richard
