Kevin Biestra Posted March 14, 2013 Author Share Posted March 14, 2013 http://m.theqmjhl.ca/article/five-hockey-legends-inducted-into-the-qmjhl-hall-of-fame/120395 Five hockey legends inducted into the QMJHL Hall of Fame MONTREAL, Wednesday, April 4, 2012 - The Golden Puck Awards Gala, which underlines the exceptional seasons of the QMJHL’s elite, was held tonight at the Hyatt-Regency Hotel in downtown Montreal. In addition to the twelve trophies which were handed out to the most deserving players, five hockey legends were inducted into the Hall of Fame, presented by RDS. "Tonight, we celebrate the careers of four hockey legends, individuals who left their mark on Quebec Major Junior Hockey League history," said Michel Côté, the President of the QMJHL Hall of Fame Committee. "We have the pleasure of inducting four players and one builder: Pierre Sévigny, Steve Duchesne, Michel Goulet, Richard Brodeur and Charles Henry. I would like to welcome them to this prestigious institution and congratulate them on a well-deserved honour." Here is a brief career overview of each inductee : Richard Brodeur Teams during his junior career: Verdun Maple Leafs, 1970-71 Cornwall Royals, 1970-71 & 1971-72 Born in Longueuil, Quebec, on September 15, 1952. Goaltender, 5’7”, 140 lbs. In 1972, he was selected in the 7th round, 97th overall, by the New York Islanders at the NHL Entry Draft. Richard Brodeur played two seasons in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. During his junior career, he recorded 62 wins, 33 losses and 2 ties in 101 games. He maintained a 3.72 goals-against-average and .894 save percentage. He was named a QMJHL first team All-Star following the 1971-72 season after leading the league in wins (43), goals-against-average (2.93) and shutouts (5) while earning the Jacques-Plante Trophy. His performances during the 1971-72 season helped the Cornwall Royals capture the President Cup as well as the Memorial Cup. Richard Brodeur rewrote the record books during the Memorial Cup, registering the best goals-against-average (1.67) in tournament history, a record which would stand for 32 years until bested by Kelly Guard (0.75). He was honoured with the Stafford Smythe Memorial Trophy awarded to the most valuable player of the tournament. He holds several Royals franchise records, including most wins (43) and most shutouts (5) in a single season. Although he was selected by the New York Islanders in the seventh round, 97th overall, at the 1972 NHL Entry Draft, he began his career in the World Hockey Association (WHA), playing with the Quebec Nordiques from 1971 to 1979. During his nine NHL seasons, which began in 1979-80, he recorded 131 wins, 175 losses and 62 ties in 385 games with three franchises: the New York Islanders, the Vancouver Canucks and the Hartford Whalers.
