May 26 Hockey History

The NHL.com gives credence to hockey history made on May 26 with items like:

1995 - NJ Devils, Neal Broten scored his second goal of the game to lift New Jersey over Pittsburgh in Game 4 of the Stanley Cup Finals.

Art Coulter

Born May 31, 1909 in Winnipeg, Manitoba, was Hockey Hall of Fame Defenseman, Art Coulter. Art played in the NHL for the New York Rangers and Chicago Black Hawks, during his brilliant 12 year career. His great play helped him become a two time Stanley Cup Champion, as Coulter helped the Black Hawks win their first championship in 1933–34 and the Rangers to a Cup win in 1939–40.

Harry Cameron's Legacy in Toronto Hockey

Harold Hugh "Cammie" Cameron was a different breed of hockey player. A standout in the early days of the National Hockey League (NHL), he carved his name in Toronto hockey history with his offensive prowess and defensive dominance. While his career spanned multiple teams, he indeed left his mark with the Toronto St. Patricks, predecessors to the Toronto Maple Leafs.

Born in Pembroke, Ontario, in 1890, Cameron began his professional career in 1913 with the Toronto Blueshirts. His offensive talent quickly shone, scoring eight goals in his first season. He even earned the distinction of scoring the NHL's first-ever goals on December 19, 1917, although his team, then named the Toronto Arenas, ended up losing.

Beyond his goal-scoring abilities, Cameron revolutionized the role of the defenseman. Known for his powerful slapshot and aggressive rushing style, he challenged the perception of defensemen as purely defensive players. His offensive contributions were significant, with seasons boasting 18 and 17 goals, feats rarely seen from defensemen in his era.

Beyond individual achievements, Cameron played a crucial role in team success. He was part of three Stanley Cup victories - one with the Blueshirts in 1914 and two with the St. Patricks in 1922 and 1923. His leadership and determination on the ice were instrumental in these triumphs.

Despite his talent and impact, Cameron's career was tragically cut short. In 1928, he contracted tuberculosis and eventually died in 1953 at the age of 63. His legacy, however, lived on. In 1992, he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame, a testament to his lasting impact on the game.

Lynn Patrick Hockey HOF Player and Exec

Born into hockey royalty, Lynn Patrick carved his path, excelling as a player and leader in the NHL. Patrick spent his entire 10-year career with the New York Rangers, and his early days were under his legendary father's coaching. Despite the pressure, he emerged as a critical contributor, culminating in their 1940 Stanley Cup victory.

Patrick later became a top scorer, leading the league in goals (1942) and earning All-Star nods. His career was interrupted by World War II service, forcing him to shift from forward to defenseman upon return. Though his playing days wound down, his legacy was far from over.

Transitioning to coaching, Patrick enjoyed success with the Rangers and Boston Bruins, leading the latter to multiple playoff appearances. As Bruins' general manager, he built championship contenders, laying the groundwork for future victories. Finally, he became the first coach of the St. Louis Blues, guiding them to three Stanley Cup Finals in their infancy.

Lynn Patrick embodied the "Patrick Dynasty," leaving a lasting mark on the NHL as a player, coach, and executive.
