To those of you too young to know Etcheverry was an outstanding QB in fifties. Alex Webster [also from that era] was the best half back ever. After just one season he jumped to the NFL where he starred for years.In my opinion, Hal Patterson was the greatest player ever for the Als.

Any Comments?

If you want all-stars, Datillio while serviceable was no all-star; I"d have Sonny Wade as the other QB, and I'd have George Dixon at halfback (or Moses Denson) and either Steve Ferrughelli(sp?) or J. W. Lockett at fullback.

I agree that Hal Patterson was by far the best player ever to play offense or defence for the Als. Does anyone know where he is now? Last I heard he was living in Kansas?

The day he was traded along with Sam was a dark day in Alouette history!

Oh man was that ever a sad day; and all we got to show for it was Paquette. Truly sad.

Good picks!
