(#12) Glenn Hall
- Goaltender
The pioneer of the butterfly goaltending style, Glenn Hall, or "Mr. Goalie" as he is known, started in an NHL-record 502 as a member of the Detroit Red Wings, Chicago Black Hawks and St. Louis Blues in the 1950s, 1960s and 1970s. Hall found success by being superstitious, often throwing up before games en route to winning three Stanley Cups, three Vezina Trophies, a Conn Smythe Trophy and the Calder Memorial Trophy.
Hall however is also remembered for the shots he didn't stop, including the Cup-winning score from the great Bobby Orr in the 1970 Stanley Cup Finals. That moment, with Orr floating through the air in front of Hall, is easily one of the most-notable hockey images of all time as well.
