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.


Kevin Lowe Hockey Champion

Kevin Lowe's hockey legacy extends far beyond the scoresheet. While his playing career boasts impressive stats and championship rings, his contributions as a coach, general manager, and leader solidify his place among hockey's greats.

-Playing Days: A Pillar of Defense

Drafted first overall by the Edmonton Oilers in 1979, Lowe became a cornerstone of their defense. He played an astounding 1,037 games for the Oilers, the most in franchise history for a single player. His defensive prowess was instrumental in securing five Stanley Cup victories for the Oilers dynasty of the 1980s, adding another with the New York Rangers in 1994. Lowe's leadership qualities were evident as he captained the Oilers during the 1991-92 season.

-Beyond the Blue Line: Coaching and Executive Success

After retiring in 1998, Lowe transitioned into coaching, leading the Oilers for a season. His true calling, however, seemed to be in management. As the Oilers' general manager, he made strategic acquisitions that helped rebuild the team.

-A Legacy of Excellence

Lowe's dedication to hockey extends to the international stage. He has served in leadership roles for Team Canada, earning gold medals at the 2010 and 2014 Olympics.

In 2020, Kevin Lowe's remarkable career was recognized with his induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame. He remains a respected figure in the sport, serving as the vice-chairman of the Oilers Entertainment Group, a testament to his lasting impact on the game.
