Herbert William "Buddy" O'Connor (June 21, 1916 – August 24, 1977) was a Canadian professional ice hockey centre who played for the Montreal Canadiens and New York Rangers in the National Hockey League. ==Playing career== O'Connor played for the Montreal Canadiens from 1941 to 1947 and won two Stanley Cups during his career in 1944 and 1946 while playing for the Canadiens. In 1947, O'Connor was traded to the New York Rangers. He had 60 points that season, finishing second to Montreal's Elmer Lach in the scoring race. He was also awarded the Hart Memorial Trophy and Lady Byng Memorial Trophy and was the first player to win both in the same year.〔Duff, Bob and Shea, Kevin (2011). ''Hockey Hall of Fame MVP Trophies & Winners''. Firefly Books Ltd. p. 67.〕 These achievements were reflected in his being named Canada's athlete of the year for 1948. O'Connor played for the Rangers until 1951. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1988, becoming the first inductee into the now defunct Veteran category. In 2009, O'Connor was ranked No. 38 on the all-time list of New York Rangers in the book ''100 Ranger Greats'' (John Wiley & Sons). 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Buddy O'Connor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
