This one took place 56 years ago at a Red Wing game.

The Rocket Richard Riot... A Quebec Stand For Recognition = The Opening Faceoff

There is also a trailer for the movie "The Rocket"which was pretty well done telling the story of Quebec nationalism awakening at the time of the riot. At that time Montreal was pretty divided culturally and economically along english opportunity and french solidarity. The hodge podge mix of religion, government, business elites and working class divided among different languages and mindsets proved to be very tough to negotiate.

There should have been a riot in Detroit in the Cup finals in 1966 when Henri Richard, Maurice's brother who they called the Pocket Rocket, scored in overtime by knocking the puck past Roger Crozier with his hand to win the Cup.
