Glenn Henry Hall (born October 3, 1931) is a Canadian former professional
ice hockey goaltender. During his
National Hockey League career with the
Detroit Red Wings,
Chicago Black Hawks, and
St. Louis Blues, Hall seldom missed a game and was a consistent performer, winning the
Vezina Trophy, which at the time was awarded to the goaltender on the team allowing the fewest goals against (a distinction that now results in being awarded the
William M. Jennings Trophy), three times, being voted the
First team All-Star goaltender a record seven times, and winning the
Calder Memorial Trophy as best rookie. Nicknamed "
Mr. Goalie", he was the first goaltender to develop and make effective use of the
butterfly style of goalkeeping. In 2017 Hall was named one of the
100 Greatest NHL Players in history. He is the grandfather of
Grant Stevenson.
