Delvecchio was a Stanley Cup champion in 1952, 1954 and 1955, and three times was voted winner of the Lady Byng Trophy (1959, 1966, 1969), awarded to the player adjudged to have exhibited the best type of sportsmanship and gentlemanly conduct combined with a high standard of playing ability.

Delvecchio, a quiet magician who played in Howe’s shadow but was immensely talented in his own right, died Tuesday at the age of 93.
