33. Harry Cameron

33. Harry Cameron

Playing for Toronto in three different stints dating all the way back to when the team was called the Arenas, Harry Cameron was an early prototype of the rushing Defenseman who could play make without sacrifice his end of the ice.

Cameron led the NHL in Assists twice and was a capable goal scorer who was also one of the first players who could curve his shot.  A Stanley Cup Champion twice with Toronto, Cameron averaged over a Point per Game with Toronto (1.11), a rare accomplishment for any blueliner.

Cameron entered the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1962.
