Hall of Famer Pierre Pilote played in the NHL from 1955-1969 with the Chicago Blackhawks and one season with the Toronto Maple Leafs. Pilote was an outstanding defenseman, winning 3 Norris Trophies and being the runner up another 3 times.
Pierre Pilote was paired with teammate Elmer ‘Moose’ Vasko and was one of the best all-time defense pairings. Pilote was a great offensive defenseman, often carrying the puck up the ice. The Hawks had floundered for years prior to Pilote’s arrival. But with the likes of Pilote, Bobby Hull, Stan Mikita and Glenn Hall, the Chicago Blackhawks became Stanley Cup champions in 1961. Pilote scored the winning or tying goal in every Blackhawks victory that season. Although 1961 pre-dated the Conn Smythe Trophy, Pierre Pilote was the obvious playoff MVP for the Hawks. His 15 points led all players in the Stanley Cup playoffs that year..
The following season Pierre Pilote became the captain of the Chicago Blackhawks.
Pilote retired from hockey in 1969 after one season with the Toronto Maple Leafs.
Pierre Pilote’s great career was recognized in 1975 when he was elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame. He retired having played 890 regular season NHL games, in which he scored 80 goals, 418 assists and 498 points.
The Chicago Blackhawks retired the number “3” worn by Pierre Pilote and the late Keith Magnuson in a joint ceremony in 2008.
