The Sweater

This video is an animated version of Roch Carrier's book, "The Hockey Sweater." It is set in the 1940s, when listening to the hockey game on the radio was a Saturday night tradition, as well as rooting for the Montréal Canadiens. All the boys worshipped Maurice "Rocket" Richard and proudly wore number 9 on their hockey sweaters. The boy in the story outgrows his hockey sweater, so his mother writes to Mr. Eaton for a new one. Instead of the coveted red, white and blue of the Canadiens, the company sends a Toronto Maple Leafs jersey. Imagine the young player's chagrin when he shows up at the neighbourhood rink in the blue and white colours of the arch-enemy.
