In this episode of Storytime Hockey, we look at the early career of Jean Béliveau and how one 44 second stretch of ice time changed the NHL as we know it. We also discuss how much of the change was Béliveau’s fault compared to just the Montreal Canadiens as a whole. In our player profile, we take a look at some of hockey’s best and worst nicknames, and talk about the short but spectacular career of John Melvin Hill.
