A hockey legend, on and off the ice. Most players seem to have a good understanding of just how important Ted was for the players and the game of hockey.

RIP, Ted.

The first Production Line now passes into history. Also, Lindsay was, reportedly, the first player to skate the Stanley Cup around the ice after Detroit won the 1950 Stanley Cup.

The first Production Line: Gordie Howe (RW) - Sid Abel (C) - Ted Lindsay (LW)
