The 14th National Hockey League All-Star Game took place at the Montreal Forum on October 1, 1960, which saw the NHL All-stars defeat the hometown Montreal Canadiens 2–1.

A Farewell to the Rocket[]

The 14th game was the first All-star game that did not have Maurice “Rocket” Richard in the lineup, as he had retired after winning the Stanley Cup a year before. The pre-game events both honored the all-stars, as was the norm, but was also a celebration of the Rocket's career.

Replacing the Rocket in the Habs' lineup was Bill Hicke, who played alongside Richard's old linemates, Dickie Moore and younger brother Henri Richard. Other no-shows in this all-star game was Ab McDonald, who was traded to the Chicago Black Hawks, as well as Dean Prentice and Phil Goyette, who were both out with an injury.

The All-Star jersey, as opposed to previous years, were orange and black, the colors of the NHL.
