Hank Goldup is probably best recognized in sports circles for his
involvement with the Toronto Maple Leafs, but that is not the extent of
his contributions. He played six years with the NHL, three with the Leafs
and two with the New York Rangers.
Goldup helped the Leafs win the 1942 Stanley Cup in one of the great
comebacks in the history of the league.
His 202 game career included 63 goals and 80 assists, but his
involvement in sports did not end with his retirement from the NHL.
What followed was 15 years of instructing Toronto youngsters on the
finer points of the game in a coaching capacity in the THL or at hockey
schools.
Competitive amateur golf followed as Goldup made his mark in the Etobicoke community playing out of Markland Woods.
