Lloyd Turner

Lloyd Turner may not have been a great hockey player, but he did everything he could to expand the game that he loved. Turner started two teams in Calgary and Edmonton which would become the foundation for the Western Canada Hockey League and would manage multiple teams in the area. Subsequently, he would build rinks across the country further enabling the growth of the game. Later, Turner would invest his time in furthering the Allan Cup’s media profile and would organize other hockey tournaments around the country. There are some builders whose place in the Hall may be suspect, but Lloyd Turner is not one of them.

King Clancy

King Clancy’s overall career in hockey is staggering. A very good defenceman for the Ottawa Senators and the Toronto Maple Leafs, Clancy was a three time Stanley Cup winner and a four time Post Season All Star (two on the first team, two on the second) and was a fan favorite for his tenacious and feisty play. After his career on the ice ended, he would go on to coach the Montreal Maroons and later become an NHL referee. Clancy would return to the Toronto Maple Leafs in various front office positions in the following decades. Clancy not only belongs in the Hall of Fame but as an honored member of the Toronto Maple Leafs. Thankfully, he is both.

James E. Norris

A hockey enthusiast from a very wealthy family, James E. Norris attempted to put a second team in Chicago but after that failed he bought the Detroit Falcons and rechristened them the Red Wings and turned that team into a National Hockey League power. This was at an essential time as the strength of that club countered the folding of franchises in Ottawa and Montreal (Maroons), and enabled the NHL to become a viable entity in the sporting world. James E. Norris was the type of owner that you wanted to be associated with your favorite team in the sport you love.

Hughie Lehman

A longtime goaltender in Vancouver’s early history of hockey, HughieOld Eagle Eyes” Lehman appeared in eight Stanley Cup championships, although he only won once. Regardless of his poor finals record, Hughie Lehman was a still a very good backstopper who is credited for being the first to rush outside of his net and move the puck forward in what was then an unconventional way. Lehman did make it to the NHL in his early forties and had a productive season for Chicago.
