Bernard Marcel " Bernie" Relative is a player of Hockey Canadian, born the April 3rd 1945.

Especially recognized like the highly skilled goalkeeper of the Flyers of Philadelphia during the Seventies, Bernie (Bernard) Relative knew a fantastic career. However, nothing predestined it with a great future with hockey. He learned how to patinate only towards the 11 years age and let his team box more than 20 goals to its first match. He progressed despite everything and arrived, just like his god Jacques Plante, to reach the professional rows thanks to the Bruins of Boston. After two years pitiful, it is exchanged via the fishing out intra-league in Flyers in 1967. It is there that it starts to be established as a promising guard but it is exchanged at once in a certain controversy with the Maple Leafs of Toronto in 1971. It leaves the team suddenly to join a new association of hockey, the Worldwide association of hockey (AMH), playing for the Blazers of Philadelphia. It reinstates LNH in 1972 and forces Toronto to exchange it in Flyers. Forming now part of the Broad Street Bullies, Parent becomes a high-speed motorboat and allows Philadelphia to gain the Coupe Stanley two consecutive years. These two years, it gains the Trophée Vézina and the Trophée Idiot Smythe as the most useful player of the eliminatory series.

An odd wound with the eye puts a term at its career at age the 34 years and Parent withdraws competition in 1979. He is then assigned at a station of support for the young guards (like Pelle Lindbergh) like his mentor and former fellow-member, Jacques Plante.
