The Toronto Marlboros Hockey Club is deeply saddened by the passing of Bob Pulford, an iconic figure in the history of our organization and the broader hockey community.
Pulford began his distinguished hockey journey wearing Marlboros colours and helped build the name of this now cherished organization. His time with the Marlboros laid the foundation for a remarkable career defined by excellence, leadership, and a lifelong commitment to the game.
Following his junior career, Pulford went on to become a four-time Stanley Cup champion with the Toronto Maple Leafs and later made a lasting impact as a coach, general manager, and executive at the NHL level. His contributions to hockey were recognized with his induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame.
Bob Pulford’s legacy is deeply woven into the fabric of the Toronto Marlboros. He represented everything the organization strives to instill in its players; professionalism, determination, and respect for the game. His influence will continue to be felt through generations of players, coaches, and alumni.
The Toronto Marlboros extend their heartfelt condolences to Bob’s family, friends, and the entire hockey community as we honour and remember a true legend of the game.
