The Stare. The stare was Rocket Richard's trademark. When he came at a goalie with his eyes lit up, the opposition was terrified. Glenn Hall once was quoted sharing his memories of Rocket Richard - "What I remember most about the Rocket were his eyes. When he came flying toward you with the puck on his stick, his eyes were all lit up, flashing and gleaming like a pinball machine. It was terrifying."
Rocket's piercing eyes are captured perfectly here in what is probably the most famous photo of the great Maurice Richard.

Do you know, was this photo staged, or is it game-action? I'm guessing staged...
