Hockey Legand comes to Guelph Thursday

 
 

Henderson scores goal of the Century

Hockey Legend Paul Henderson will be coming to the Guelph Hurricanes / Cambridge Winter Hawks game this Thursday night at the Sleeman Centre. The game is a fundraiser for Habitat for Humanity.

 Here is Paul’s bio:

Paul Henderson, a member of the Canadian Sports Hall of Fame, became a Canadian sports legend on September 28, 1972. His goal, with 34 seconds remaining in the final game, lifted Canada to victory in the “Series of the Century”, against the Soviet Union.

Incredibly, Paul Henderson scored the winning goal in each of the last three games of this historic first series between the two superpowers of hockey.

That magical moment in Moscow is still considered the greatest in hockey history. In 1997, on the 25th Anniversary of The Goal, Paul was immortalized on a postage stamp issued by Canada Post and a silver coin by The Royal Canadian Mint.

Tickets for the event can be purchased at the Sleeman Centre on Game night or at the Rona Cashway store on Dawson Road or Habitat’s Re-Store on Speedvale Road. Ceremonial face-off is at 7:00 pm.
