gold star for USAHOF

There is no doubt that the NHL career of Bill Gadsby was more productive as a New York Ranger but to discount what he accomplished as a Chicago Blackhawk would be many levels of inappropriate.  As a Chicago Blackhawk, Bill Gadsby would be a two time All Star as well as a two time Second Team All Star.  He would score 186 Points for Chicago.

An excellent two way Defenceman, Bill Gadsby did not have the best of fortune with the teams he played on, as even in the Original Six era, he only played 67 playoff games. Most of those playoff games were on good Red Wings teams from the 60’s, when he was still a good player, but not at his prime like he was the decade before.
