Classic Photos of Bobby Hull

Hall of Fame left wing and 12-time NHL All Star Bobby Hull celebrates his 78th birthday on Jan. 3, 2017. Armed with superb speed, superior strength and a screaming slap shot clocked at 120 mph, Hull was one of the most feared and effective scorers hockey has known. He ranked second in league history in goals scored when he left for the WHA in 1972. He earned two league MVP awards (1965 and '66), three Art Ross Trophies (top point scorer) and the title of Associated Press Player of the '60s.
