Al Secord arrived in Chicago after essentially being given up on by the Boston Bruins, and the change of scenery certainly proved to be fruitful for the Left Wing.

Prior to making his National Hockey League debut, Bill Hay was traded from the Montreal Canadiens for Cash, who would watch their former farmhand win the Calder Trophy in 1960 and assist the Blackhawks win the 1961 Stanley Cup.  Hay was a solid playmaker whose 386 Points (all with Chicago) were Assists and he was the leader in Assists per Game in the 1961/62 season.  Hay would play eight seasons in the NHL and would retire shortly after being claimed by the St. Louis Blues in the Expansion Draft.

Cliff Koroll is one of the players in Chicago Blackhawks history to have played over 800 Games with the franchise (814 to be exact) and it was in the Windy City where his entire NHL career was spent.  Koroll was a very good two-way player, and he would have four 50 Point seasons, totaling 462 points.  He would also finish in the top ten in Game-Winning Goals three times.
