Timeline

1939

James Joseph Pappin (September 10, 1939 – June 29, 2022) was a Canadian professional ice hockey right winger who played 14 seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL).

Pappin was born in Copper Cliff in Greater Sudbury, Ontario, on September 10, 1939.

His father, Joseph Gerard Pappin, was employed as a machinist for a mining company; his mother was Geraldine Fitzgerald.

1958

Pappin began his junior career by playing two seasons for the Toronto Marlboros of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) from 1958 to 1960.

1959

He then joined the Sudbury Wolves in the middle of the 1959–60 season.

1960

Pappin was signed by the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1960 and played for its Rochester Americans affiliate throughout his eight seasons with the franchise.

Pappin began his professional hockey career in 1960 with the Rochester Americans in the American Hockey League (AHL).

1963

He played for the Toronto Maple Leafs, Chicago Black Hawks, California Golden Seals, and Cleveland Barons from 1963 to 1977.

After retiring he worked as a scout for the Black Hawks, St. Louis Blues, and Anaheim Ducks, and briefly served as head coach of the Milwaukee Admirals.

Pappin was added to the Toronto Maple Leafs roster during the 1963–64 season.

He made his NHL debut for the franchise on November 23, 1963, against the Boston Bruins at Maple Leaf Gardens.

He continued to go back and forth between the Leafs and its Rochester affiliate throughout his tenure with the franchise.

1964

He won his first Stanley Cup in 1964, and played in his first NHL All-Star Game later that year.

1965

He was part of Rochester's Calder Cup-winning sides in 1965, 1966, and 1968, and won the Stanley Cup with the Leafs in 1964 and 1967, scoring the Cup-winning goal in the latter championship series.

He played on its Calder Cup-winning teams in 1965, 1966, and 1968.

He scored the most goals during the 1965 and 1966 playoffs, including the game-winning goals in the both Cup-clinching games.

1966

During the 1966–67 season, Pappin led the league in game-winning goals (7) and finished eighth in shooting percentage (15.3) and power-play goals (6).

1967

However, he had a poor relationship with general manager and coach Punch Imlach, who sent Pappin down to Rochester in February 1967 after he scored only six goals.

He was recalled to Toronto after six games, around the time when Imlach temporarily stepped aside due to illness and King Clancy became interim coach.

Pappin thrived with Clancy at the helm, scoring 15 goals in the last 22 games of the regular season.

He went on to win his second Stanley Cup championship that same season, scoring the series-winning goal in Game 6.

At the time of his death in 2022, it was the Leafs' most recent championship-clinching goal.

Although his shot was deflected in off the skate of teammate Pete Stemkowski and credit was given to the latter at first, they privately agreed to give Pappin the goal as he was in the running for a contract bonus should he score the most goals in that year's Stanley Cup playoffs.

He ultimately scored the most goals (7) and points (15), and recorded the highest shooting percentage (15.9) of any player in that series.

Pappin reportedly accorded Stemkowski unlimited access to the backyard pool that he constructed with the bonus payment.

Pappin was also in line for a C$1,000 bonus after scoring a combined 25 goals in the NHL and AHL, but Imlach refused to honour the agreement.

In the offseason, Imlach raised Pappin's salary to $22,000, which was $3,000 less than what the latter had requested.

The move – which was instigated by Imlach – aggrieved Pappin and spurred him to give his 1967 championship ring to his father-in-law.

Pappin made a strong start with the Black Hawks, scoring six goals in his first three games and accumulating 19 goals by Christmas.

1968

He appeared in his second All-Star Game in 1968, but was also sent down to the Americans again by Imlach.

He was traded to the Chicago Black Hawks on May 23 that same year in exchange for Pierre Pilote.

He also recorded his first hat-trick in the NHL, achieving this on October 16, 1968, against the Minnesota North Stars.

During his first season with the franchise, he finished fourth in the NHL in game-winning goals (7) and fifth in shooting percentage (17.7).

1971

He scored ten goals during the 1971 playoffs, helping the team advance to the Stanley Cup Finals which they lost to the Montreal Canadiens in seven games.

1972

After being traded to the Black Hawks, he had the best statistical season of his career in 1972–73 and reached two more Stanley Cup Finals in 1971 and 1973.

Pappin later set a franchise record by scoring two goals within six seconds against the Philadelphia Flyers on February 16, 1972.

In the 1972–73 season – arguably Pappin's best season as a professional – he recorded career-highs in goals (41), assists (51), and points (92).

He finished third in the league in shooting percentage (22.5), sixth in goals, seventh in goals per game (0.54), eighth in points per game (1.21), and tenth in points.

1976

He later played for the Golden Seals and Barons before retiring in 1976.

1996

He went on to score 134 goals in 275 regular-season games for the Americans and was later inducted into the team's hall of fame in 1996.
