Printed on both sides of the stick is “Par Hockey Du Quebec” and written in black marker on the shaft on one said is the name “Parkin”. The stick itself measures roughly 28” long and written on the shaft is 24 autographs (11 HOF Inductees) from the 1972-73 Montreal Canadiens including coach Scotty Bowman (Signed Scott Bowman). From the research I’ve done this stick was likely from 1972 as it does not include a signature from Larry Robinson who started with the team in January of 1973, also missing from the roster on the stick are Dave Gardner, Randy Rota and Yvon Lambert all of whom played 5 or less games for the team that season.
Below is a list of the autographs on the stick that I was able to verify against others from the era of these players/coaches.
