Dunc Munro Duncan Brown " Dunc " Munro ( January 19 , 1901 – January 4 , 1958 ) was a Canadian hockey player who played with and coached the Montreal Maroons . He was born in Moray , Scotland . He played junior hockey for the University of Toronto Schools when they won the Memorial Cup in 1919 . He then played for the senior Toronto Granites , a team that featured such Hockey Hall of Famers as Hooley Smith and Hap Day and this team won the gold medal in the 1924 Winter Olympics . Munro scored 18 goals in the four games he played . As a result of the team ' s winning the gold medal , there was a scramble to sign players from this team and Munro signed with the not yet named Montreal Maroons . His steady defensive play kept the Maroons contenders . In 1926 , the Maroons won the Stanley Cup . The Maroons had a strong defence of Red Dutton and Reg Noble backed by Munro and the team gave up few chances to opposition marksmen . The Maroons made the finals in 1928 but lost to the New York Rangers . The following year , after just one game , Munro suffered a heart attack that hospitalized him , and while in hospital he nearly contracted pneumonia . His absence was felt . The Maroons tumbled to the bottom of the Canadian Division of the NHL . Munro recovered in time for the 1929 – 30 season and found himself player - coach upon his return . He took the Maroons from worst to first in the Canadian Division that year . The following year the Maroons signed practically the entire Montreal AAA Allan Cup - winning team and the team sagged , and before the season ended , he was fired as coach and replaced by George Boucher . He played his last season with the Montreal Canadiens in 1931 – 32 .
Ab DeMarco , Jr . Ab DeMarco , Jr . ( born February 27 , 1949 in Cleveland , Ohio ) is a retired professional ice hockey player who played in the National Hockey League and World Hockey Association during the 1970s . A skilled defender , he was noted for his shot , considered one of the hardest in the sport at the time . He is the son of Ab DeMarco Sr . , who starred for the New York Rangers in the 1940s . Playing career . DeMarco was born in the United States while his father was playing for the Cleveland Barons , but was raised in North Bay , Ontario . He played his junior hockey for the Kitchener Rangers and , after representing Canada at the 1969 World Championships , he was signed by the New York Rangers , the team with which his father spent the majority of his career . DeMarco would spend the majority of his first two professional seasons in the minors , earning brief NHL callups to New York both years . In 1971 – 72 , he stuck with the Rangers full - time , recording 4 goals and 11 points in 48 games . Late in the 1972 – 73 season , however , he was dealt to the St . Louis Blues . Given an opportunity to play more and receive time on the powerplay , Demarco responded in style , with 13 points in 14 games for the Blues , to give him a total of 30 points on the season . However , despite his great start in St . Louis , he would last less than a year for the Blues before being traded again , to the Pittsburgh Penguins . This would be the pattern of his career , as he would become something of a nomad - offense - starved teams would pick him up to help their powerplay , but eventually grow frustrated at his poor defensive play and lack of grit , and he would find himself on the move again . He finished the 1973 – 74 season with 31 points in 59 games between St . Louis and Pittsburgh . Early in the 1974 – 75 campaign , DeMarco was dealt again , this time to the Vancouver Canucks . In Vancouver , he had perhaps the best season of his NHL career , as he posted a career - high 12 goals in helping the team to a division championship and their first - ever playoff berth . On the powerplay , he was one of the most dynamic performers in the league , as his 9 PP goals for a blueliner ranked behind only Hall of Famers Bobby Orr and Guy Lapointe . After a poor offensive start to the 1975 – 76 season , however , DeMarco was dealt again , this time to the Los Angeles Kings , and he finished the year with a disappointing 18 points in 64 games . By the following year , he found himself in the minors for the first time since 1971 , appearing in just 33 games for LA and scoring 6 points . For the 1977 – 78 campaign , with his NHL career at a standstill , he jumped to the rival World Hockey Association to sign with the Edmonton Oilers . The move failed to revitalize him , however , and he spent only a season in Edmonton , registering 6 goals and 14 points in 47 games . DeMarco returned to the NHL for the 1978 – 79 season , signing with the Boston Bruins , but appeared in only three games for the team . After a season in Switzerland , he retired in 1980 . He finished his career with totals of 44 goals and 80 assists for 124 points in 344 NHL games .
