Hockey Hall of Fame

Welcome, hockey fans, to a journey through the hallowed halls of hockey history! We're embarking on a series dedicated to the elite few – the immortals enshrined in the Hockey Hall of Fame.

From the pioneers who carved their names on the frozen canvas to the modern-day marvels redefining the sport, the Hall of Fame boasts a pantheon of legends. These are the players whose brilliance, dedication, and impact on the game have earned them a place among hockey's royalty. Welcome to the section that celebrates the house where the North American Ice Hockey Legends reside in memorium for future generations to respect what they have done for the game.

Here, you will find the players in the Hall and examine the top players at each jersey number in our ongoing pursuit to preserve the player, uniform, and team history.


Aurele Joliat Hockey legend

Born August 29, in Ottawa, Ontario, was Hockey Hall of Fame Left Wing, Aurele Joliat. He was known by many as the Little Giant Joliat, and by others as the Mighty Atom, and whatever people said they all agrees he was a magnificent skater in hockey. Joliat helped the Montreal Canadiens to the Stanley Cup in 1924 over the WCHL's Calgary Tigers. He helped the Canadiens win two more cups in 1930 and 1931. His best season was in 1925, when teamed with Howie Morenz and Billy Boucher. Joliat scored 29 goals to lead the NHL, and his 41 points would be a career high. All in he played 16 seasons in the National Hockey League. The Mighty Atom finished his career with 270 goals and 460 points in 655 games. At the time of his retirement, Joliat was the NHL career leader in games played, a mark he held until surpassed by Hooley Smith in 1940.
