Toronto Maple Leafs legend Bobby Baun, who entered hockey lore by playing on a broken leg and scoring an overtime goal to help eliminate the Detroit Red Wings in the 1964 Stanley Cup final, has died at the age of 86.
The NHL Alumni Association announced Baun's death, but the cause of death was not known.
A four-time Cup champion who ended his 17-year NHL career by playing two years in Detroit from 1969-1971, the five-foot-nine, 175-pound defenseman earned national recognition in Game 6 of the Cup final at Olympia Stadium located at the corner of Grand River Avenue and McGraw Street in Detroit.
