Thank you for browsing.

Canada Post's 2014 NHL Original Six series highlights a star from each team in the era that ended with NHL expansion in 1967. "The six hockey legends celebrated by Canada Post defined, and in some cases redefined, the defensive position at a golden time in the sport's history," says the Honourable Lisa Raitt, Minister of Transport and responsible for Canada Post. "Hockey transcends sport in Canada. It's part of our very fabric."

Tim Horton: Toronto Maple Leafs, Number 7. Horton hailed from Cochrane, Ontario. Though he never won the Norris Trophy as the NHL's best defenceman, his achievements rival those who did. He helped carry the Leafs to four Stanley Cup victories and was a three-time NHL First Team All-Star. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1977.
