The problem with running a Hall of Fame-related website is that many of the big ones we cover all have announcements within months of each other. The backbone of what we do is list-related, resulting in a long push to revise what we already have, specifically now with our Football Hockey and Basketball Lists.
At present, we have a minor update as we have completed the next ten of the 2024 Hockey List, which you can comment on and vote on:
The new 71 to 80:
71. Bob Baun
72. Brent Sutter
73. Dale Hunter
74. Don Marshall
75. Eric Desjardins
76. Eddie Shack
77. Adam Foote
78. Stephane Richer
79. Doug Weight
80. Tim Thomas
Rankings are impacted annually based on your comments and votes.
Thank you all for your patience. We will soon unveil more changes to the football, hockey and basketball lists.
Bobby Baun reminds us a lot of Paul Henderson in that he is best known for one game. Baun fractured his ankle early in Game 3 of the 1964 Stanley Cup Championship but returned to the ice to score the game-winning goal against the Detroit Red Wings and would help Toronto win the Cup that year.
Overall, Bob Baun had an excellent stay-at-home blueline career in the National Hockey League, where he was a five-time All-Star, four-time Stanley Cup winner, and was the NHL leader in Defensive Point Shares (1960-61). He is also a five-time All-Star.
