Bobby Baun Hockey

[caappy]

Robert Neil "Bob, Boomer" Baun (born September 9, 1936) is a Canadian retired professional ice hockey defenceman who played in the National Hockey League for 17 seasons from 1956 to 1973. He played in Toronto for the 11 seasons, winning the Stanley Cup in 1962, 1963, 1964, and 1967.

Baun was one of the hardest and cleanest hitters of his time. He was not considered an offensive threat as a defenceman, never scoring more than 20 points in a season in the NHL. His highest single-season goal total was eight in 1959–60. However, Baun is remembered for his performance in game six of the 1963–64 NHL season Stanley Cup finals against the Detroit Red Wings. On April 23, 1964, having fractured his ankle earlier in the game, he returned in overtime and scored the game-winning goal. The Leafs won the next game 4–0 to win the best of seven series, and secure their third consecutive Stanley Cup championship.

Sent him 2 photos on 2 Aug and got them back signed on 27 Aug.
