After a bit of a break, the Habs look very rusty in game 1. Detroit dominates despite possibly being tired from playing their game 7 the day before. Gordie Howe gets 2 goals and an assist, while Milt Schmidt gets three apples of his own. Detroit wins game one, 5-1! Gordie would score twice in the opening period of game 2, but Montreal is able to respond this time. Red Kelly and Claude Provost both score, and before we know it, we have overtime. In OT, Pierre Pilote is able to get a point shot to the back of the net on the power play, giving the Wings a 4-3 win and a 2-0 series lead.

Pilote wins game 2 in OT!

Facing a lot of pressure, Montreal responds with a great first period. Ted Lindsay gets his first goal of the series, and the Habs add 2 more to go up 3-0. It’s 4-0 before Detroit gets on the board, and by that time, it’s too late. 4-2 Montreal wins to get back in the series. Al Rollins makes his first statement of the series, turning aside 29 shots. Wally Hergesheimer scores the winning goal late in the third as Montreal ties the series with a 2-1 win.

Ted Lindsay gets his first goal in game three.

Rollins stole game 4, but Pelletier is the man in game 5. In a very defensive game, Marcel is perfect, while Gordie Howe scored the only 2 goals. 2-0 Detroit wins, putting them a win away from repeating. Trailing 2-1 halfway through the third period, Montreal’s Tom Johnson gets the puck passed Pelletier to tie this elimination game. The game goes to overtime, and in the extra frame, a sort of Déjà vu occurs.

In real life, Toronto defenseman Bill Barilko scored a famous overtime, Stanley cup winning goal in 1951. Barilko ended up dying that summer, and his body wasn’t found for 11 years. A period when Toronto did not win a Stanley cup. The year his body was discovered, Toronto of course won the Stanley Cup….

Barilko scoring the cup winning goal in real life

Bill Barilko, playing for Detroit in our world, yep, you guessed it, scores a power play goal halfway through overtime, which is the game winning, and cup winning goal!!! Detroit wins the Stanley Cup! Bill Barilko is again a HERO. This time, lets hope he plays a long career in the NHL!
