Timeline
His career plus-minus of +444 is the 10th highest total in NHL history, and the highest among players not inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame.
Byron Brad McCrimmon (March 29, 1959 – September 7, 2011) was a Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman and coach.
In his second season, 1975–76, he was named the SJHL's defenceman of the year.
For the 1976–77 season, he moved up to the Brandon Wheat Kings of the Western Canada Hockey League (WCHL).
He scored 84 points in 72 games in his first WCHL season and added 13 points in 15 playoff games as the Wheat Kings reached the league championship series, only to lose to the New Westminster Bruins.
McCrimmon scored 97 points in 1977–78 and 98 in 1978–79.
He was named the defenceman of the year in 1978 and was named to the league all-star team in both seasons.
He also joined the Canadian junior team at the World Junior Championship in each season.
He recorded two assists in six games to help Canada win a bronze medal at the 1978 tournament and had three points in five games in 1979 though Canada failed to medal.
With McCrimmon as team captain, the Wheat Kings again reached the league championship in 1978–79.
He scored 28 points in 22 games to help Brandon win the President's Cup.
He played over 1,200 games in the National Hockey League (NHL) for the Boston Bruins, Philadelphia Flyers, Calgary Flames, Detroit Red Wings, Hartford Whalers and Phoenix Coyotes between 1979 and 1997.
The team advanced to the 1979 Memorial Cup tournament where it reached the final against the Ontario Hockey League champion Peterborough Petes.
McCrimmon routinely played a high number of minutes each game; his teammates marvelled at his stamina.
In the Memorial Cup final, he played virtually every minute of the contest.
His total ice time was 60 minutes, 38 seconds, and he was off the ice only to serve a two-minute penalty.
Peterborough won the game, 2–1 in overtime, after McCrimmon lost the puck on a play he thought was icing was not called.
Peterborough's Terry Bovair stole the puck from him and scored the championship winning goal.
Despite the loss, McCrimmon was named a tournament all-star on defence.
At the 1979 NHL Entry Draft, considered one of the deepest in league history, McCrimmon was selected 15th overall by the Boston Bruins.
He made his NHL debut on October 11, 1979, in the team's opening night victory over the Winnipeg Jets.
He scored 5 goals and 16 points in his rookie season of 1979–80 and improved to 11 goals and 29 points in his second season.
Flyers' coach Bob McCammon argued that McCrimmon had been "intimidated" by playing with fellow 1979 Bruins pick and all-star, Ray Bourque, and that he could be a better overall defenceman.
With only nine points in the 1981–82 season, McCrimmon had gained a reputation as a player who did not attack with the puck in the NHL.
Following the retirement of Rogie Vachon, the Bruins needed a new goaltender.
They sent McCrimmon to the Philadelphia Flyers in exchange for Pete Peeters on June 9, 1982.
McCrimmon's offence improved in his first two seasons in Philadelphia – 25 points in 1982–83 and 24, though without a goal scored, in 1983–84 – but he established himself as a top shutdown defenceman with the Flyers.
He recorded 43 points in 1984–85 and posted a plus-minus rating of +52, fifth best in the NHL.
McCrimmon was ruled out of the 1985 Stanley Cup Playoffs in the third game of the league semi-final against the Quebec Nordiques when he suffered a third-degree separation of his left shoulder following a hard hit by Wilf Paiement, an injury that required surgery to repair.
The Flyers reached the final without McCrimmon, but were defeated by the Edmonton Oilers for the Stanley Cup.
McCrimmon returned to start the 1985–86 season, in which he had his best season statistically.
He appeared in all 80 games for the Flyers and set career highs of 13 goals, 43 assists, 56 points and his plus-minus rating of +83 was second only to defensive partner Mark Howe.
He achieved his greatest success in Calgary, where he was named a second team All-Star in 1987–88, played in the 1988 NHL All-Star Game and won the Plus-Minus Award with a league leading total of +48.
In 1989, he helped the Flames win their only Stanley Cup championship.
McCrimmon turned to coaching following his playing career, serving as an assistant with the New York Islanders before taking over as head coach of the Western Hockey League's Saskatoon Blades for two seasons between 1998 and 2000.
He then returned to the NHL as an assistant, first with the Flames then the Atlanta Thrashers and finally the Red Wings.
He left the NHL to become the head coach of Lokomotiv Yaroslavl of the Kontinental Hockey League (KHL) in 2011.
He never coached a regular season game however, as he was killed, along with most of the team, after their plane crashed en route to their first game.
McCrimmon began his junior career at the age of 15 with the Prince Albert Raiders of the Saskatchewan Junior Hockey League (SJHL).
He played two seasons with the team, scoring 23 goals and 84 points.
