• Richards Leads Canadiens to 1944 Stanley Cup.

  overtime to capture the Stanley Cup championship. “Richard's first goal was a remarkable shot,” the New York Times wrote. “Turned completely around 10 feetfrom the net as he skated in after taking Blake's pass, the young winger completed his spin and let fly a backhand shot that beat goalie Mike Karakas.

  There were many doubters, both overseas and within the United States.

• Armenian Massacres .

But these bloody episodes soon paved the way for the rise of a newnationalist...

• Messier Lifts the Curse.

  Swept up in the hype, the Rangers came out for game five at the Garden in a virtual sleepwalk. By the start of the third period they were down 3-0.

Vancouver then stunned the Rangers—andthe sellout crowd—by netting three quick goals to put the game far out of reach. Game six in Vancouver proved even more of a challenge for the Rangers. The team showed little will...

• Badminton.

  Once play has started, players tend to hit straight, low-flying shots called drives. When the shuttle remains close to the center of the court, net shots can be a goodoption.

If the opponent manages to return a net shot, the return must be hit high to clear the net. This gives the player a chance for a smash—the deadliest attacking stroke inbadm...

• Sailing.

  the sails sweep across the decks of the vessel from one side to the other, and also because of the danger of breaking spars. In wild jibing, control can be lostmomentarily and, if the seas are high, a small boat can broach —that is, veer on its side with danger of swamping or capsizing. An unintentional jibe in a heavy wind frequently has enough force to break the masts of a vessel. When jibing intentionally, careful sailors always haul in on the boom while turning, so that the boom willtravel...
