Quote:
Beginning in 1951-52, he was selected to the NHL All-Star Team 11 consecutive years, 10 of them on the First Team. He also had a stranglehold on the Norris Trophy, winning it seven times in eight years from 1955 to 1962. His play was a vital component of Montreal's Stanley Cup win in 1953 and the NHL record five straight from 1956 to 1960.

He was retired long before I was born but is recognized as the best defenseman of that era (obviously, considering the above paragraph). Maybe only Bobby Orr has a better "rep".
