The Other Ted Kennedy Dies
2009-08-16
Hall of Famer Ted "Teeder" Kennedy, who played on five Toronto Stanley Cup championship teams, died Friday in Port Colborne, Ontario. He was 83.

Kennedy played 14 seasons in the NHL, all with the Maple Leafs.

"The entire Toronto Maple Leaf hockey club sends our deepest sympathies to the Kennedy family," said Brian Burke, the team's president and general manager.

"He truly was a man of great class and he was one of the most accomplished leaders in our team's long history."

Kennedy, who died in a nursing home, won the Hart Trophy as the league's most valuable player in 1955. He was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 1966.
