• Manitoba-born Mervyn “Red” Dutton was serving with the Canadian Expeditionary Force in France during World War I when an exploding shell filled his leg with 48 fragments of shrapnel. When doctors informed him that his very life depended on amputating the leg, he refused, citing his love of hockey. His leg was placed at a 30-degree angle for the next 14 months. Dutton recovered, going on to play pro hockey for 15 years and serving as president of the NHL. He was inducted into the NHL Hall of Fame in 1958. turn the page for more!

• It’s most probable that the Scandinavians invented the sport of skating by strapping ox or elk leg bones to their boots with leather straps. Five-thousand-year-old skates have been found in Finland, and were a mode of transportation rather than a form of entertainment. Metal blades didn’t come along until the 13th century.
