Henry Vernon Howell (born December 28, 1932) is a former professional hockey player and longtime star for the New York Rangers of the National Hockey League. He was born in Hamilton, Ontario. A stalwart, stay at home defenceman, in 1967 Howell was the last player in the pre-expansion era to win the Norris Trophy,〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=In the know on the Norris (www.nhl.com) )〕 and famously said that he was glad he won the trophy then, because Bobby Orr (who finished second that year) would "own" the Norris for some time to come (as it turned out, Orr would win the trophy for the next eight seasons in a row).〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Legends of Hockey: Silverware- James Norris Memorial Trophy Winner (www.legendsofhockey.net) )〕 Howell's playing weight was 195 and he stood 6 foot 1 inches tall.
