On The Mend: When last we saw our hero, here, it was December of 1958 and Jean Béliveau had suffered a ruptured tendon in a finger on his right hand, and then surgery to repair it. Here he poses with Canadiens coach Toe Blake late that same month, not long before he returned to the Montreal line-up, on December 18, for a 4-1 Montreal win over the Toronto Maple Leafs at the Forum.
