rdf:langString "I skate along and get as much speed as possible because the faster I go the surer I am of getting my shot "placed." I shoot in hockey as I do in lacrosse, except that the movement in hockey is lower. Generally, I let the stick go back a little and send the puck with a half body turn and the wrist movement. I stop as soon as I shoot and in the stop I use all the force of the momentum of my body in sending the puck ahead. I shoot high only on rare occasions. I always shoot from the right and have never used my left in shooting. Before going in, I try to draw the defense to the side and get my opening. That's all, I guess."
rdf:langString "I used the shot when I first entered professional hockey, but I did not get the wrist movement with which I put the force into the bullet shot, until about 1910. That was when I first got the nickname "Bullet." I had been playing with the Canadiens and my continual fire on "Riley" Hern, the Montreal Wanderers goalkeeper, got on his nerves so much that the boys got to calling my shots "bullets." Hern dropped out of the game shortly afterwards and has not been back in hockey since."

Though he spent the latter part of his career almost exclusively with the Canadiens, Pitre played for several other teams in various leagues early on, including the International Professional Hockey League, the first professional hockey league, and the Pacific Coast Hockey Association. A prolific scorer, Pitre won the Stanley Cup with the Canadiens in 1916, the first for the team. In 1963 he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. He was the uncle of Vic Desjardins, a member of the United States Hockey Hall of Fame.

Marie, Ontario, var en kanadensisk professionell ishockeyspelare. Didier Pitre spelade professionell ishockey för bland annat Michigan Soo Indians i IPHL, Montreal Canadiens i NHA och NHL samt 15 matcher för Vancouver Millionaires i PCHA åren 1904–1923. Pitre vann Stanley Cup med Montreal Canadiens 1916 sedan laget besegrat Portland Rosebuds från PCHA med 3-2 i matcher i finalserien. Samma säsong, 1915–16, vann han även NHA:s poängliga sedan han gjort 24 mål och 15 assists för totalt 39 poäng på 24 matcher. Pitre spelade ytterligare två Stanley Cup-finaler med Canadiens 1917 och 1919, båda gångerna mot Seattle Metropolitans. 1917 förlorade Canadiens finalserien mot Metropolitans med 1-3 i matcher och 1919 avbröts finalserien mellan lagen vid ställningen 2-2 i matcher på grund av spanska sjukan. Didier Pitre var en storväxt spelare för sin era och hade även sin tids kanske hårdaste skott. Han kunde genom att svinga sin klubba bakåt få en sådan kraft i skottet att pucken avfyrades som en "kanonkula". Pitre var även snabb på skridskorna och det var hans, samt vännen och lagkamraten Jack Laviolettes, skridskoåkning som gav Montreal Canadiens epitetet The Flying Frenchmen, "De flygande fransmännen". 1962 valdes Pitre in som ärad medlem i Hockey Hall of Fame.
