Timeline

1929

Joseph Richard Crozier (February 19, 1929 – October 11, 2022) was a Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman and head coach who played and coached primarily in the minor leagues.

1947

In his first season in 1947–48, he was named to the MJHL Second All-Star Team, then the First All-Star Team the following year.

His second and final year in Brandon culminated in an eight-game Memorial Cup final series against the Montreal Royals.

The seven-game series was extended an extra game as game three had ended in a 3–3 tie.

Although Crozier scored the first goal in the final and deciding eighth game, the Royals scored four times in the third period to defeat the Wheat Kings 6–4.

1949

Turning professional in 1949 with the San Francisco Shamrocks of the Pacific Coast Hockey League, he began a long career in the minor leagues.

1950

After playing a season with the Vancouver Canucks in 1950–51, he joined the Quebec Aces of the Quebec Senior Hockey League.

1954

Crozier would remain with the Aces for eight seasons, earning Second All-Star Team honours in 1954 after a 27-point campaign and First Team honours in 1957 after recording 37 points.

1957

He had also previously been a player-coach for the Aces in 1957–58.

As a head coach in several leagues, Crozier was a three-time Calder Cup champion with the Rochester Americans of the American Hockey League, a two-time Lester Patrick Cup championship with the Vancouver Canucks of the Western Hockey League, and a Memorial Cup champion with the Kitchener Rangers of the Ontario Hockey League.

During the 1957–58 season, Crozier also acted as team head coach.

Crozier made his head coaching debut in 1957–58 with the Quebec Aces of the Quebec Senior Hockey League, while still playing defence with the team.

Quebec posted a 29–31–4 record.

1959

In 1959–60, Crozier joined the Rochester Americans of the American Hockey League (AHL), then earned a break with the Toronto Maple Leafs of the National Hockey League (NHL).

He played five games with the Maple Leafs, his only appearance in the NHL as a player, recording three assists.

After his NHL stint, Crozier finished his playing career with the Spokane Spokes of the Western Hockey League in 1959–60 and one more season with the Rochester Americans in 1960–61.

1961

After playing the better part of 12 seasons in the minor leagues with the Quebec Aces of the Quebec Senior Hockey League, which included a five game stint in the National Hockey League (NHL) with the Toronto Maple Leafs, Crozier retired in 1961 and became a head coach for 22 years, beginning in 1963.

In 1961, he became the head coach and general manager for the Charlotte Checkers of the minor professional Eastern Hockey League.

After one season with the Checkers, he rejoined Rochester of the AHL as their coach.

1965

In 1965, his second season as head coach of the Americans, he won his first of three Calder Cups, as AHL champion, during five seasons with the team.

1967

The directors of the Vancouver Canucks of the Western Hockey League purchased the Americans after the 1967–68 season, and Crozier assigned Dick Gamble to coach for Rochester while he coached for Vancouver.

Crozier won two Lester Patrick Cups as WHL champion in his two seasons with Vancouver.

1971

In 1971, he became the coach and general manager of the Cincinnati Swords of the AHL.

1972

After a heart attack to Buffalo Sabres coach "Punch" Imlach, Crozier was given Imlach's position and made his National Hockey League coaching debut in 1972.

He coached the final 37 games for the Sabres.

Imlach stepped down as coach after the season, and Crozier succeeded him.

He coached the Sabres to a playoff berth the following season, where the Sabres lost to the Montreal Canadiens.

1973

After finishing his third season with the Sabres out of the playoffs, however, he was replaced by Floyd Smith after the 1973–74 season.

1974

Upon leaving the Sabres, he became the general manager of the Vancouver Blazers in the World Hockey Association in 1974–75.

1975

The team relocated in 1975, becoming the Calgary Cowboys, and Crozier signed a new five-year contract as coach and general manager.

In 1975–76, Crozier made it to the semi-finals with the Cowboys, but lost to the Winnipeg Jets.

In his third and final season with the Blazers-Cowboys franchise, in which Calgary failed to make the playoffs, Crozier dumped the team's spare hockey sticks from the bench onto the ice during a game in protest of a disputed call.

Another incident with the Cowboys involves a mishap while trying to return to Calgary after a game against the San Diego Mariners.

The pilot had failed to refuel and there was not enough gas to return home.

Although Crozier asked the team to collectively pitch in, they still did not have enough money.

1979

During his coaching career, he also made brief appearances in the NHL with the Buffalo Sabres for 2 1⁄2 seasons and the Maple Leafs from the end of 1979–80 to the first half of 1980–81.

1985

In 1985, Crozier was inducted into the Manitoba Hockey Hall of Fame for his individual efforts, then once again in 2007 as part of a team induction of the Memorial Cup-runners-up 1948–49 Brandon Wheat Kings.

Crozier was the father of the professional hockey player, Greg Crozier.

A native of Winnipeg, Crozier played junior hockey in the Manitoba Junior Hockey League with the Brandon Wheat Kings.

2007

They were later inducted as a team into the Manitoba Hockey Hall of Fame 58 years later in 2007.
