Also, he,le just a little boy; a very little boy indeed. compared to the glanti of major hockey. He weighs only 133 pounds. Yet little Andre Dinette has written into the saga of hockey when lie was called on in a sudden emergeneY by a National Hockey League team. The night of November 11 Canadiens were drilling in the usual fashion before playing Chicago Black Hawks. Jacques Plante, the hawk-faced goaler was in the nets, casually batting away the shots his-mates were, tossing his way. The shots were easy for the swift-moving Plante „ to handle. Easy, that is, *until one streaking driye took a sudden sharp curve and the frozen puck, travelling at bullet speed, crashed into his face, He fell head-foremost onto the ice. His cheek-bone was shattered by the impact. Canadiens had two spare goalers. One was out of the city, with Royals' team. The other ,was down at Providence. So, suddenly, the League leaders found themselves with no goaler at all. Then, someone recalled that little , Andre Dinette, spare net-minder for a junior team; was in the house, Quickly, he was found. He was asked , to play: "No, no" he protested at first, bewildered by it all. qt would not be fair to Canadiens. I am so small." But in the end, he consented to fill the gap as best he" could. He was hurried to the dressing-room, equipped with the big pads left behind by the 175‘pound Plante, pads which hung almost ludicrously from the little fellow's skimpy frame. He shambed out on the ice. shaking with 'nervous tension, weighted down by the over-size gear — his own was in a sport§ shop, being cut down. But his moment of glory has come and he rose to meet - it. Hawks pelted him with shots. One got by because his leg pads struck his chest when he bent over and he couldn't reach down to stop the puck, sliding • along the ice. Four shots beat him in all. Canadiens imagination caught fire, "We can't let the kid down" was their battle.cry, and they fired ;seven „goals„ •&mailing their highest total of the year, • past' Rollins in` the Chicago twine. Sd for little Andre Dinette, as he lurched wearily down the ice, a dream had suddenly`come ,true. He had his • night of glory. Probably he will never play in the. National League again. But he had his game, and won , it, and his name will be inscribed in the all-time records as one of those hockey rarities — a goaler who batted 1,000 percent.
