He won six Stanley Cups and two Art Ross trophies. Not a bad career at all. RIP.

They do it right in Montreal, they don't honour them, they retire them proper.

Would have put up even better numbers if his knees weren't trashed. Talked to my Dad yesterday, he was one of his favourites when he was a kid. Had an amazing construction business post hockey.

Red Fisher came out of retirement to write this:

I have known so many of the NHL’s players since the mid-1950s. Almost without exception, I was full of admiration for their talent, but only a few among them were to become friends.

Dickie was my closest friend.

Fantastic article. Way before my time, but he sounded like a class act.

Kudos, also, to the Dallas Stars PA announcer for mentioning this before the game Saturday as well.
