| dbo:abstract | Im Eishockey war The French Connection der Spitzname einer der bekanntesten Sturmreihen der Buffalo Sabres, die aus Gilbert Perreault, René Robert und Richard (Rick) Martin bestand. Das Stürmertrio erhielt diesen Namen nach dem gleichnamigen Film The French Connection, da alle drei aus dem frankophonen Teil Kanadas, der Provinz Québec, stammen. Gilbert und Rick Martin spielten schon zu Juniorenzeiten zusammen und wurden durch die Sabres zur Saison 1971/72 wiedervereint. Als dann René Robert zu den Sabres stieß, war eine der produktivsten Offensivformationen der NHL-Geschichte geboren, die zum Beispiel in der Saison 1974/75 insgesamt 291 Scorerpunkte erzielte (René Robert: 40 Tore, 60 Assists; Rick Martin 52 Tore, 43 Assists; Gilbert Perreault: 39 Tore, 57 Assists) und damit alle drei in der Top Ten der Topscorer der NHL landeten. Zwar konnte die Offensivstärke dieser Reihe die Sabres bis in das Finale um den Stanley Cup führen, den Pokal gewonnen haben die Sabres aber noch nie. Die drei Spieler standen zusammen vom Ende der Saison 1971/72 bis zum Ende der Spielzeit 1978/1979 auf dem Eis, danach wurde Robert zu den Colorado Rockies transferiert. Die Nummern aller drei Spieler werden nicht mehr von den Sabres vergeben – sie hängen zusammen unter dem Hallendach des First Niagara Center. (de) The French Connection (« La filière française ») est une ligne d'attaquants de hockey sur glace de la franchise des Sabres de Buffalo qui jouent ensemble de 1972 à 1979 dans la Ligue nationale de hockey. La ligne se composait de Gilbert Perreault au centre et de Rick Martin à gauche et René Robert à droite. Les trois joueurs étaient Canadiens français du Québec ; Perreault de Victoriaville, Robert est de Trois-Rivières et Martin de Verdun. Le surnom est lié à la fois à l'origine des joueurs et au film intitulé French Connection (1971), basée sur . Le trio excella ensemble, chacun étant nommé au moins une fois dans l'Équipe d'étoiles de la Ligue nationale de hockey et au moins deux fois pour le Match des étoiles de la Ligue nationale de hockey lorsqu'ils jouaient ensemble sur les sept saisons complètes qu'ils partagèrent. Perreault et Martin étaient les choix de premières rondes des Sabres de Buffalo dans les deux premières années de la franchise et Robert a été acquis à la fin de la deuxième saison de la franchise par l'intermédiaire d'une transaction. Les joueurs ont conduit les Sabres à la première apparition de la franchise en phase finale des séries éliminatoires et de continuer à établir de nombreux records de points dans l'histoire de la franchise. (fr) The French Connection is the nickname of a forward line that played for the Buffalo Sabres of the National Hockey League from 1972 until 1979. The line consisted of Hall of Famer Gilbert Perreault at centre and All-Stars Rick Martin and René Robert at left wing and right wing, respectively. All three players were French-Canadians from Quebec: Perreault from Victoriaville; Robert from Trois-Rivières; and Martin from Verdun. The name referred both to the origins of the players and to the 1971 movie The French Connection, based upon the book of the same name. The name was registered as a trademark by Robert with the approval of his linemates. Perreault and Martin were the first-round draft picks of the Sabres in the franchise's first two years, while Robert was acquired in a trade late in the Sabres' second season. The trio accounted for most of Buffalo's scoring during their seven years together, amassing a total of 1,681 points over 1,536 man-games from 1972–79,while leading the Sabres to the franchise's first appearance in the Stanley Cup Finals in 1975. They continue to hold many of the franchise's scoring records. Each member of the French Connection was named to the official NHL All-Star team at least once and to the National Hockey League All-Star Game at least twice while playing together. (en) |
