Tim Horton

He appeared in seven All-Star Games, and in 1962 was on the Maple Leafs team that won the first of four Stanley Cups in the 1960s. Traded to the New York Rangers in 1970, and to the Pittsburgh Penguins a year later, Horton became a Buffalo Sabre until his death in 1974. Elected to the Hall of Fame in 1977, Horton played in a total of 1,446 games.
