Richard is 5-foot-9, and a 16-year veteran of the NHL. He possesses the same fiery temperament that characterized his more famous brother, Maurice "The Rocket" Richard, who starred for the Canadiens before Henri came along. The Canadiens clinched the Cup Tuesday night with a drama-packed 3-2 victory over the Chicago Black Hawks in the seventh game.
