Looking back
#ThrowbackThursday @markelabouris & #RIHHOF uncover truth behind one of longest-running locker room pranks in history. The case of the "legally blind" goalie, Jack Ferreira. RI native & long-time @NHL exec has carried the moniker #MrMagoo for 55 yrs! 🤣https://t.co/eFqVSAtljx pic.twitter.com/U91uY71BYu— RI Hockey Hall of Fame (@RIHHOF) June 11, 2020
Ferreira led BU to a 25-6-0 season, with eight shutouts, in 1964-65, earning first-team All-American honors. He's been general manager of four NHL teams, was an executive for two L.A. Kings Cup-winners and now is an advisor to the Minnesota Wild.
Congrats to John McCarthy who has been named the AHL's 2019-20 recipient of the Fred T. Hunt Memorial Award, given to the player who exemplifies the qualities of sportsmanship, determination and dedication to hockey👏
