Hockey Codes

Ted Lindsay (29 July 1925 to 4 March 2019), known as Terrible Ted, was a Canadian professional ice hockey forward who played for the Detroit Red Wings and the Chicago Black Hawks of the National Hockey League. In a Hockey Hall of Fame career he scored more than 800 points, won the Art Ross Trophy as the league leading scorer in 1950 and won the Stanley Cup four times. He helped to organize the first attempt at a players association in the late 1950s, an action that led to his trade to Chicago. After retiring he worked as a sports broadcaster on NBC and became general manager of the Red Wings, and he also coached the Hillsdale College Chargers in 1976 to 1977 and the Red Wings for a time. He was named one of the 100 Greatest NHL Players in 2017.
