I still find it hard to believe. But I need to start from the beginning.
A long time ago, when I was about 13, I saw a man coming out of church in Orillia wearing a black sports jacket with a blue, white, and red crest on the breast that said ‘CHC’ which stood for Club de Hockey Canadien, or Canadiens Hockey Club. I knew what it was right away because I had a picture of Maurice Richard wearing one.
I asked this man, whose name was Roy Faubert, why he had this jacket, and told me he did some scouting for the Canadiens.
