Joe Primeau

A three time Assists champion in the National Hockey League, Joe Primeau was also one the game’s most classy players. Primeau won the Lady Byng Award in 1932, which was also the same season he won the Stanley Cup with the Toronto Maple Leafs. He would spend his entire professional playing career in Toronto and “Gentleman” Joe was considered one of those great playmakers who made linemates instantly better. Primeau would also become a successful coach, as he led the Leafs to the Cup in 1951. He is also the only coach in Hockey history to win the Stanley, Allan and Memorial Cup.
