Timeline

1937

Lawrence Morley Hillman (February 5, 1937 – May 31, 2022) was a Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman and coach.

One of the most travelled players in hockey history, he played for 15 different teams in his 22 professional seasons.

Hillman was born in Kirkland Lake, Ontario, on February 5, 1937.

1953

He began his junior career by playing one season for the Windsor Spitfires of the Ontario Hockey League (OHL) in 1953.

After joining the Hamilton Tiger Cubs in the middle of the 1953–54 season, he joined the Detroit Red Wings in 1955.

1955

He played in the National Hockey League (NHL) between 1955 and 1973, and then in the World Hockey Association (WHA) from 1973 to 1976.

After retiring he spent parts of three seasons as a coach in the WHA.

Hillman had his name engraved on the Stanley Cup six times during his playing career.

Hillman made his NHL debut for the Red Wings on March 5, 1955, against the New York Rangers at Detroit Olympia.

He won his first Stanley Cup championship with the franchise later that year, becoming the youngest player to have his name engraved on the Stanley Cup, at 18 years, two months, nine days old.

This is a record that cannot be broken under the current rules, as a player must be 18 years old by September 15 to be eligible to play in the NHL that season.

He split the following season between the Buffalo Bisons of the American Hockey League (AHL) and Detroit.

1956

Hillman subsequently left the Red Wings after the 1956–57 season and went to the Boston Bruins.

1957

He scored his first goal for the Bruins on December 19, 1957, in a 3–3 tie with New York at Boston Garden.

He led the league with 70 games played that season.

1959

He ultimately played two full seasons in Boston before being sent to their minor league team, the Providence Reds, for most of the 1959–60 season.

1961

Hillman went to the Toronto Maple Leafs in 1961 and continued to bounce from the minor leagues to the NHL and back.

1962

He played on four Stanley Cup-winning teams in Toronto in 1962, 1963, 1964, and 1967.

In between those Cup wins he played parts of six seasons with the Rochester Americans and the Springfield Indians.

1965

Hillman was named to AHL All-Star First Team in 1965 and captained the Americans to the first Calder Cup later that year.

1967

Following the 1967–68 season, Hillman signed with the expansion Minnesota North Stars who later traded Hillman to the Montreal Canadiens, with whom he won his sixth and final Stanley Cup championship in 1969.

He was one of only 11 players to win the Stanley Cup with three or more different teams.

1969

During the 1969–70 season, he again led the NHL in games played (76).

After Montreal, Hillman played for the Philadelphia Flyers, Los Angeles Kings, and Buffalo Sabres.

1972

Following the 1972–73 season, he left the NHL for the World Hockey Association, and played two seasons for the Cleveland Crusaders.

1975

His final season was in 1975–76, playing for the Winnipeg Jets.

1977

After his playing career ended, Hillman took over as coach of the Jets in 1977.

He led the franchise to the Avco Cup in his rookie season, in which he recorded a .638 winning percentage (50–28–2).

1978

However, he was fired 61 games into the 1978–79 campaign, after the Jets went 28–27–6.

Hillman was the older brother of NHL and WHA defencemen Wayne Hillman and Floyd Hillman.

He was also the uncle of former NHL forward Brian Savage.

Hillman was married to Liz until his death.

During his later years, they resided in a townhouse on Lake Timiskaming, close to where he was born.
