Henri Richard was a Canadian professional ice hockey centre, born on February 29, 1936, who spent his whole twenty-year National Hockey League career, from 1955 to 1975, with the Montreal Canadiens. Nicknamed the Pocket Rocket after his older brother, the Canadiens legend Maurice Richard, he won the Stanley Cup eleven times as a player, the most of anyone in NHL history and a total matched among North American league champions only by the basketball star Bill Russell. He died on March 6, 2020, and in 2017 he was named one of the 100 Greatest NHL Players.
