Gordie Howe Gordie Howe was the epitome of durability and versatility, dominating the NHL for five decades with strength, skill, and toughness. Known as "Mr. Hockey," he played 26 seasons with the Detroit Red Wings, amassing 801 goals and 1,850 points in the regular season. A six-time Hart Trophy winner, Howe won four Stanley Cups and was a 23-time All-Star. He excelled in scoring, physical play, and defensive responsibility, embodying the complete forward. His longevity was remarkable—playing into his 50s, even competing in the WHA and later returning to the NHL with his sons. Howe’s name lives on through the "Gordie Howe Hat Trick" (goal, assist, fight in one game). Revered for his humility and work ethic, he became a symbol of old-school hockey values. His legacy endures as a bridge between eras and a model of consistency.
