Card Notes
1957-58 was a year of great personal triumph for Dickie Moore, a year in which Dickie came into his own with a resounding “bang”. Following his fine 29 goal effort of the previous year, Dickie started out the new season by clearly indicating he meant to repeat. Before the season wound up some months later, Dickie had more than repeated. He led the League in goals scored, in total points, won the Art Ross Trophy and the First All Star team left wing berth.
En Français
L’année de 1957-58 fut une de grand succès pour Dickie Moore, il démontra sa capacité avec éclat. Poursuivant son bel effort de 29 buts de l’année précédente, Dickie commença la nouvelle saison indiquant qu’il désirait la répéter. Avant la fin de celle-ci, il avait plus que la répéter. Il est en tête de la ligue pour les buts, dans les points totaux; il gagna le trophée Art Ross et la première place de l’aile gauche de l’équipe des “toutes étoiles”.
Details
Dickie Moore stepped it up to an even higher level for 1958-59. He led the NHL with 55 assists and set a new NHL mark with 96 point, one more than Gordie Howe and his 95 in 1952-53. He not only repeated as Art Ross Trophy winner but as First Team All-Star, as well.
However, as fast as rose to stardom, his demise was nearly as quick. He did have great but injury shortened season in 1960-61, scoring 35 and totaling 69 points while playing just 57 games. He was third in goal scoring behind leader and teammate Bernie Geoffrion, who became the second 50 goal scorer in NHL history that year, and Frank Mahovlich of the Toronto Maple Leafs.
By the end of 1962-63, his time with the Montreal Canadiens was done. It seemed like the end of his career, but Moore made a comeback with the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1964-65 and another with the St. Louis Blues in 1967-68.
Between 1951-52 and 1967-68, Dickie Moore played 719 regular season and 135 playoff games with the Canadiens, Maple Leafs and Blues. The six time Stanley Cup champion was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1974 and his jersey number 12 was retired by the Habs in 2005, the honour shared with Yvan Cournoyer.
