Robert Blake Theodore Lindsay[1] (July 29, 1925 – March 4, 2019) was a Canadian professional ice hockey player who played as a forward for the Detroit Red Wings and Chicago Black Hawks of the National Hockey League (NHL). Lindsay scored over 800 points in his Hockey Hall of Fame career, won the Art Ross Trophy in 1950, and won the Stanley Cup four times. Often referred to as "Terrible Ted",[2] Lindsay helped to organize the first attempt at a Players' Association in the late 1950s, an action which led to his trade to Chicago.[3] In 2017, Lindsay was named one of the 100 Greatest NHL Players in history.[4][5] Ted played a pivotal role in improving the lives of NHL players.[5]
