A remarkable life, and a friend to all
By Eric DUHATSCHEK

Nashville -- Roger
NEILSON's legacy in hockey will endure because
he coached 1,000 games among eight National Hockey League teams,
because he was an innovator and because he served as a mentor
and a tutor to others during a Hall of Fame career.
But the contributions of
NEILSON, who died Saturday in Peterborough,
Ontario, at 69 after a lengthy battle with cancer, contain a
vibrancy matched by few others because of the countless Friendships
he developed during his lifetime.
The proof of that came in June of last year when a dozen of his
closest Friends organized a tribute to
NEILSON. It was held in
Toronto, a day before the National Hockey League awards dinner,
to make it easier for people to attend, which they did. More
than 1,300 people were there.
NEILSON was responsible for helping several players and coaches
get to the National Hockey League, including Bob
GAINEY,
Craig
RAMSAY and Colin
CAMPBELL, players on the Peterborough Petes
junior team that
NEILSON coached in the 1970s.
Among those who benefited from
NEILSON's guidance was Florida
Panthers coach Mike
KEENAN.
Scotty
BAUMAN/BOWMAN, the Hall of Fame coach,
recalled Saturday how
NEILSON talked him into hiring
KEENAN,
who had also coached the Petes, into running the Buffalo Sabres'
minor-league affiliate in Rochester, New York in the early 1980s.
"Roger didn't have any enemies,"
KEENAN said. "He lived his life
in a principled way. He had a great deal of respect for people
and found goodness in all of them. He was very unique and all
of us were blessed to know him.
"I'm saddened by his passing, but to me, this is a life to be
celebrated, a life that was so influential to many of us."
NEILSON had an endless fascination with the rulebook that forced
the powers in whatever league he happened to be coaching in to
revise and clarify each loophole he probed. For a penalty shot,
he would put a defenceman in the crease instead of a goaltender,
instructing the defenceman to rush the shooter as soon as the
latter crossed the blueline, to hurry him into a mistake.
Once, when his team was already two players short with less than
two minutes remaining in the game,
NEILSON kept sending players
over the boards, getting penalties for delaying the game. The
strategy worked, taking time off the clock and upsetting the
other team's flow. At that stage of the game, it didn't matter
how many penalties
NEILSON's team was taking. If a coach tried
that tactic today, the opposition would be awarded a penalty
shot.
NEILSON, whose last job was as an assistant coach with the Ottawa
Senators, coached his 1,000th National Hockey League game on
the final night of the 2001-02 regular season, temporarily filling
in for Senators head coach Jacques
MARTIN.
NEILSON was involved
with a dozen National Hockey League teams in a series of different
capacities, including his eight different turns as a head coach.
In 1982, he took the Vancouver Canucks to the Stanley Cup final,
his one and only appearance in the championship series as a coach.
The Canucks were swept by the New York Islanders.
It was during that playoff run that
NEILSON placed a white towel
on the end of a stick, a mock surrender to the on-ice officials.
In 1999, NEILSON was diagnosed with multiple myeloma, a form
of bone cancer, and needed a bone marrow transplant. He also
developed skin cancer, the result of a lifetime of being outdoors,
in the sun, usually in raggedy old shorts and T-shirts, with
a well-worn baseball cap perched on his head.
"He put in an incredible, inspiring fight with an insidious disease,"
said KEENAN, who added that
NEILSON kept in constant contact
with his mother Thelma, after she was diagnosed with pancreatic
cancer.
"They found strength in each other. That's the type of individual
Roger was. He'd reach out and touch somebody who needed help.
He was deathly in pain the last few times we spoke, but he would
not let it influence his life."
The high regard for
NEILSON was clear during the tribute for
him last year. Former coach and Hockey Night in Canada analyst
Harry NEALE, who worked with
NEILSON in Vancouver, was the master
of ceremonies. But he was so overcome by emotion so many times
that he let his good friend Roger steal the show.
NEILSON's self-deprecating sense of humor surfaced when he scanned
the crowd and suggested that everyone he'd ever said hello to
in his lifetime had turned up for the event. He quipped that
at $125 a ticket, it must be an National Hockey League production.
What other organization would set the price so outrageously high?
NEILSON's health was deteriorating this spring, but he managed
to accompany the Senators on the road for their second-round
series against the Philadelphia Flyers. The Senators pushed the
eventual Stanley Cup champions, the New Jersey Devils, to seven
games in the Eastern Conference final before being eliminated.
NEILSON's speech to the team before Game 6, with the Senators
trailing 3-1 in the series, was cited by the players and the
coaching staff as the inspiration for their comeback against
the Devils.
"The only sad part is we weren't able to win a Stanley Cup for
him this year," Martin said.
With his health failing,
NEILSON asked
BAUMAN/BOWMAN to be the keynote
speaker at his annual coaching clinic in Windsor earlier this
month.
"I talked to him only a week ago,"
BAUMAN/BOWMAN said. "I said, 'The
coaches in the National Hockey League are getting blamed a lot
for the [defensive] style that teams are playing.' I said, 'You
should blame Roger
NEILSON because he's the one training all
these coaches.'
"Roger was a special person. The people that follow hockey know
what he went through. I truly think he battled it right to the
end and it was hockey that probably kept Roger going." eduhatschek@globeandmail.ca
Remembering Roger
NEILSON
"The coaches in the National Hockey League have been getting
blamed a lot for the style of game the teams are playing. I said,
'You should blame Roger
NEILSON because he's training all these
coaches.' "He battled right to the end. Hockey and life for Roger
were intertwined. That probably kept him going to the end. He
never got married. He was married to hockey."
Scott BAUMAN/BOWMAN
"All the awards he won this year tell you about his hockey career's
innovativeness and what kind of person he is. Some people are
going to remember Roger for nothing to do with hockey just because
of what a humanitarian he is. He put up an unbelievable battle.
From when he found out how sick he was, if had happened to most
people, they would have had their demise many months ago. He
fought hard."
Jim GREGORY
"I know I haven't met a person who could equal Roger's passion
for hockey. The honours bestowed on him in the past year, the
Hockey Hall of Fame and the Order of Canada, did not come by
accident. He has done so much for so many kids and I will always
remember that legacy."
Harry NEALE
"He's an individual we can all be inspired by, by his ability
to deal with some difficult situations in his own life. He has
such a high level of respect for human beings. "He was fortunate
in way he lived his life. It was impacted by his faith and his
religion. He observed those principles on a daily basis, things
most of us have a hard time dealing with. He saw the goodness
in everyone else."
Mike KEENAN
"He did a lot of work at the grassroots level with his hockey
camps, coaches' clinics, his baseball teams, his summer programs.
He wasn't really in it for himself very much. "It's a word you
use too often to make it special but in his case he was unique,
he really was."
Bob GAINEY
"Hockey has lost a great mind, a great spirit, a great friend.
The National Hockey League family mourns his loss but celebrates
his legacy -- the generations of players he counselled, the coaches
he moulded, the changes his imagination inspired and the millions
of fans he entertained."

Leafs trusted their doctor
Talented M.D. specialized in hand surgery. 'He had a unique technical
approach. That's what made him different from other surgeons.'
By Carol COOPER
Special to The Globe and Mail Saturday, May 3,
2003 - Page F10
Nothing about Jim
MURRAY's hands indicated that he was a surgeon.
Large and gnarled with undulating fingernails, those hands played
bagpipes, patched up Toronto Maple Leafs and Team Canada players
and restored form and function to other hands.
Dr. MURRAY, a plastic surgeon who was the first Canadian doctor
to devote his practice to hand surgery, died last month at the
age of 82.
"His hands looked more like those of a prize fighter than a surgeon.
His fingers were bent, "said Robert
McFARLANE, a retired plastic
surgeon with a special interest in hands and a close friend of
Dr. MURRAY. "It didn't seem to make a difference. He had tremendous
skill."
In 1983, Dr.
MURRAY brought together plastic and orthopedic surgeons
to form a hand unit at Toronto's Sunnybrook Health Science Centre,
the city's first. "His concept was to pull together the expertise
of different surgeons, "said Paul
BINHAMMER, once a student
of Dr. MURRAY and now a plastic surgeon at the hospital, now
part of the Sunnybrook and Women's College Health Sciences Centre.
Dr. MURRAY assembled a highly skilled team. Among them were orthopedic
surgeon Robert
McMURTRY, who went on to become dean of medicine
at the University of Western Ontario, and plastic surgeon and
nerve expert Susan
MacKINNON, who is now a professor in the United
States.
But before rising to prominence in the field of hand surgery,
Dr. MURRAY gained fame in hockey circles. Serving as one of the
Toronto Maple Leafs team doctors from 1948 to 1964, he was greatly
trusted by players. When cut during games on the road, they left
their wounds unstitched until he could tend to them at home.
"He'd come at you with those fingers and they were just so big,
you'd wonder how he was ever able to stitch as neat as he did,"
said former Leaf defenceman Bobby
BAUN, who played professional
hockey for 17 years.
Mr. BAUN estimates that Dr.
MURRAY put in half of his 143 career
stitches.
Under instructions from Leaf owner Conn
SMYTHE, injured players
were not to be rushed back into the lineup, according to Hugh
SMYTHE, another Leaf doctor and Mr.
SMYTHE's son. "This was a
heavy and not always popular role, "he said.
During the 1964 Stanley Cup finals, it became especially challenging.
Entering Game 6, the Detroit Red Wings led the series against
the Leafs 3-2. Playing in Detroit on April 23, with the scored
tied at 3-3 in the third period, Mr.
BAUN first was hit on his
right leg by a slapshot from Gordie
HOWE and then, after a faceoff,
spun on the leg, which gave way.
X-rays delayed at Mr.
BAUN's insistence showed a small broken
bone, just above the ankle. He spent six weeks in a cast.
But that came after the series ended. During its sixth game,
Mr. BAUN was tended to by Dr.
MURRAY and other team doctors.
After being carried off the ice, he asked Dr.
MURRAY if he could
hurt his leg any more. The doctor replied no. "Having someone
like Jim tell me that, I could believe him, "Mr.
BAUN said.
With his leg taped and frozen, Mr.
BAUN continued playing. Within
the first two minutes of the first overtime period, he scored
the winning goal and kept the Leafs in the series.
Mr. BAUN didn't miss a shift during Game 7, and neither did teammate
Red KELLY, who had torn knee ligaments during the previous game.
The Leafs won the seventh game 4-0 and the Stanley Cup, their
third in a row and their fifth during Dr.
MURRAY's time with
the team.
That year, Dr.
MURRAY resigned and 20 years later joked to The
Toronto Star that it was he who had led them to the five Stanley
Cups.
If he took the connection between his presence and the Leafs'
wins lightly, Punch
IMLACH, then the team's coach, did not. Mr.
IMLACH had become convinced that Dr.
MURRAY brought the team
good luck, the doctor told the Star in a 1972 story.
The newspaper was interviewing Dr.
MURRAY about his appointment
as a doctor to Team Canada for the Canada-Russia hockey series.
In the article headlined "Good luck charm for Team Canada, "
he recalled how during the 1967 Stanley Cup playoffs, Mr.
IMLACH
invited him to a Leaf game in Chicago, believing that he would
bring the team good luck.
"If it had been anybody else but Punch, I'd have dismissed it
as a joke. But he really needed to win and he honestly believed
my presence would make a difference, "Dr.
MURRAY was quoted
as saying.
The
Leafs won not only that game, but, with Dr.
MURRAY in attendance
for the remainder of the series, the Stanley Cup. The Leafs haven't
won a Stanley Cup since.
And the Star's headline proved prophetic. Team Canada won the
Canada-Russia series when Paul
HENDERSON scored with 34 seconds
left in the eighth game.
Born in Toronto on May 14, 1920, James Findlay
MURRAY was the
youngest of three children. His father ran a store at Yonge and
Queen Streets in downtown Toronto and died before the birth of
his third child.
Dr. MURRAY attributed his curvy fingernails to his mother's malnutrition
when she was pregnant with him, said his youngest son Hugh. Within
a few years, she had remarried, and his stepfather helped to
raise him.
An avid athlete, Dr.
MURRAY played football during his high school
and university days, so much so that once, when forbidden by
his mother to play for his high-school team because he had had
pneumonia, he practised and played in secret.
That lasted until his picture appeared in the Star running for
a touchdown. He was immediately placed on the disabled list.
Awarded the George Biggs trophy for sportsmanship, leadership
and scholarship, Dr.
MURRAY graduated from medical school in
1943 and spent two years in the Royal Canadian Medical Corps,
finishing as a captain.
After a year of general practice in Belleville, Ontario, he trained
in plastic surgery at the Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto
with A. W.
FARMER, whom many consider to be the father of Canadian
hand surgery.
A humble man, who drove less-than-fancy cars, Dr.
MURRAY was
known for his ability to relate to everyone. "He was a doctor
and an esteemed member of society, but it didn't matter to him,"
Hugh MURRAY said. "He considered himself an everyday person.
He was as comfortable, if not more comfortable, dealing with
just working guys."
In 1953, Dr.
MURRAY joined the Toronto East General and Orthopedic
Hospital as head of plastic surgery and organized a specialized
hand clinic, according to Bernd
NEU, another former student of
Dr. MURRAY and now a plastic surgeon at North York General Hospital.
"It's because the hand is such an important part of the body,
not just physically, but aesthetically, "Dr.
MURRAY, a specialist
in soft tissue and the reconstruction of flexor tendons, said
in 1984 to explain the dedication of hand surgeons.
In 1983, Dr.
MURRAY left Toronto East General, where he had been
surgeon-in-chief since 1976, to head the hand unit at Sunnybrook
Medical Centre, taking a cut in pay to do so.
At the time, plastic surgeons could earn $2,000 for a face-lift
and $106.50 for a carpal-tunnel release.
Dr. MURRAY derived great satisfaction from the help his hands
gave others. Once in a clinic at Toronto East General, he and
Dr. NEU came upon a patient with only a thumb and little finger
on one hand.
"This is a wonderful hand, "he told Dr.
NEU. "
Look at how dirty
and callused it is."
After several surgeries, Dr.
MURRAY had restored the worker's
hand to the point where the man could use it once again to earn
a living.
"What to other people would look like a devastating loss, to
Dr. MURRAY and the patient, this was a hand to be proud of,
Dr. NEU said.
As a hand consultant beginning in 1974 at the Downsview Rehabilitation
Centre of the Workers' Compensation Board, Dr.
MURRAY treated
those injured in industrial accidents, often surmounting language
barriers to do so.
"He could speak to them [the patients] in basic English, so they
could understand how seriously he took their problems, and how
everything was being done that could be done for them, "Dr.
NEU said.
In a 1996 letter to Dr.
MURRAY, another of his former residents
recalled how once on rounds, the doctor lifted the sheets to
examine a paraplegic patient, only to find the man soiled. Instead
of calling for hospital staff to clean the man, Dr.
MURRAY performed
the task himself.
"That little lesson reminded me that being a doctor is not just
being a cutter, "the physician wrote.
Not only did he have a natural way with people, Dr.
MURRAY was
a gifted surgeon.
"He was a talented person with original ways of doing things,"
Dr. McFARLANE said. "He had a unique technical approach. That's
what made him different from other surgeons."
Appointed a lecturer at the University of Toronto in 1953, Dr.
MURRAY was first an assistant and associate professor, becoming
a full professor in 1979. He developed the first hand surgery
fellowship training program in Canada in 1981, Dr.
NEU said.
As well as teaching at the university, Dr.
MURRAY trained surgeons
during two trips to Southeast Asia as a volunteer with Cooperative
for American Relief Everywhere, Inc. Medico and led a group of
hand surgeons to study techniques in micro-surgery in China during
the late 1970s.
At the medical meetings Dr.
MURRAY often attended, he impressed
Dr. McFARLANE with his ability to discuss surgery. "He had a
very common-sense approach to a surgical problem, and when everyone
had something to say about a problem, he would get up and clarify
it very nicely, "Dr.
McFARLANE said.
A founder of
MANUS
Canada, a society of hand surgeons, once a
president of the Canadian Society of Plastic Surgeons and the
American
Society for Surgery of the Hand, Dr.
MURRAY was honoured
by the U.S. society at "Murray Day" in 1990 with tributes from
past presidents.
Stricken with Alzheimer's disease toward the end of his life,
Dr. MURRAY died in Collingwood, Ontario, on April 4. He leaves
his wife of 57 years, Shirley, and his children, John, Bill,
Claire and Hugh.
