Playing career


Hay started his junior career with the Regina Pats in the Western Canadian Junior Hockey League in 1952-53. He would then move on to play for the Saskatchewan Huskies in 1953-54 before returning to the Pats in 1954-55. Hay and the Pats would make it all the way to the Memorial Cup that year where they would lose in 5 games to the Toronto Marlboros.[1]


In 1955-56, Hay moved to Colorado to play with the Colorado College Tigers. He received many awards during his stay in Colorado which saw him being named to the WCHA First All-Star Team twice, the NCAA First All-Star Team twice and a berth to the NCAA Championship All-Tournament Team in 1956-57.[2]


In 1958-59, Hay started his pro career with the Calgary Stampeders. In 53 games he recorded 24 goals and 54 points.[3] In 1959-60, Hay made his first National Hockey League appearance with the Chicago Black Hawks. In his rookie season he put up a total of 55 points and was awarded the Calder Memorial Trophy and a spot on the 1960 NHL All-Star Game roster.[4] In 1960-61, Hay and the Black Hawks made a trip to the Stanley Cup Finals. Paired on a line with Bobby Hull and Murray Balfour, the trio helped the Black Hawks claim their first Stanley Cup since 1937-38.[5] Hay would play 6 more seasons, all with the Black Hawks, before retiring.


Hay became the President and CEO of the Calgary Flames in 1991.[6] He held the positions until being named the Chairman of the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto, Ontario.[7]


In 2015, Hay was inducted to the Hockey Hall of Fame in the Builder Category.
