Dale Hawerchuk, a hockey legend who rose to prominence as the face of the Winnipeg Jets on his way to the Hockey Hall of Fame, died on Tuesday. He was 57. The death from stomach cancer was announced by the Barrie Colts, the Ontario Hockey League team Hawerchuk coached, on Twitter. He had been receiving treatment for the disease for the past year. Hawerchuk is one of only four players (along with Gordie Howe, Guy Lafleur, and Mario Lemieux) to score over 500 goals in the NHL. He finished with 511 goals and 972 points in 901 games over 21 seasons. In addition to being a two-time All-Star, he won the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy three times as well as the Frank J. Selke Award for best defensive forward. He was born on January 4, 1959 in North York, Ontario. As a youth, he played in the 1975 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with a minor ice hockey team from Toronto. In 1984, Hawerchuk joined the Winnipeg Jets as their first overall pick in the draft. He helped the team win the Stanley Cup that same season. He remained with the franchise until 1996 when they moved to Phoenix after 12 years in Winnipeg. During that time, he scored 100 or more goals five times, was named MVP of the playoffs three times, and won the Lady Byng Trophy twice.
