Canadian ice hockey player Bob Pulford had four children with his wife, Roslyn.

Bob Pulford, a Hockey Hall of Fame player who won four Stanley Cup titles with the Toronto Maple Leafs before a lengthy career in the NHL as a coach and general manager, has died at the age of 89.

The NHL Alumni Association said the organization learned of Pulford’s death from his family. No other details were provided. In a statement, Blackhawks chairman Danny Wirtz said,

“Whether coach, general manager, senior executive, or even multiple at the same time, Bob wasn’t afraid to serve in whatever role was most needed at the time and take on the different challenges associated with each that seem unthinkable by today’s standards,” “… We are grateful for his leadership and devotion to the sport, which will forever be part of our club’s history. This is a tremendous loss for the Blackhawks and the hockey world at large.”

NHL Commissioner Gary Bettman said Pulford “left an indelible mark on the game” and was “one of only three people in league history to play in the NHL, serve as President of the NHL players’ union, as well as coach and work as a general manager in the League.”
