There have been some shocking trades in the history of the National Hockey League. No trade was bigger than the Wayne Gretzky trade from Edmonton to Los Angeles. But in 1968, the Toronto Maple Leafs and Detroit Red Wings shocked the hockey world with the trade of The Big M - Frank Mahovlich.

The Leafs dynasty days of the 1960s were officially behind them with this trade. The Leafs had won the Stanley Cup in 1962, 1963, 1964 and 1967, thanks in large part to a cast of veterans. Father time had finally caught up with those oldtimers, but the true star of the 1960s Maple Leafs still had plenty of hockey left in him. Frank Mahovlich was the handsome superstar of Leafs. Though he was at-times maligned by the Leafs fans and especially coach Imlach, the trade of The Big M was, at the time, nearly as shocking as the Gretzky trade 20 years later.

The Leafs moved Frank Mahovlich, Pete Stemkowski, Garry Unger and the rights to Carl Brewer for Paul Henderson, Floyd Smith and Norm Ullman.

The Leafs move was a desperate attempt to extend the dynasty one more spring, according to The Hockey News as seen above. It did not work. Though Ullman and Henderson in particular went on to solid careers in Toronto, the Maple Leafs began an awkward slide down the standings.

Mahovlich, meanwhile, enjoyed some of his best years personally in Detroit. Playing on a line with Alex Delvecchio and Gordie Howe, he scored 49 goals the next season. But the Wings were never a Stanley Cup threat. Mahovlich did enjoy two more Stanley Cup championships in Montreal, as he was moved to Les Canadiens in 1971, reuniting him with his younger brother Peter.

Here's a great YouTube clip featuring Punch Imlach announcing the trade and the reactions of Frank Mahovlich, Pete Stemkowski, Garry Unger and King Clancy.

Montreal – Rangers (Mar. 2, 2004)

The deal was soon made and Kovalev became a Hab, while the Canadiens sent Josef Balej and their second-round pick in 2004 to the Rangers. Bruce Graham’s selection would ultimately never play a single game in the NHL.

Balej as a Ranger: 13 games played, 1 goal, 4 assists.
Kovalev as a Hab: 314 games played, 103 goals, 161 assists.

ernie hicke and a Canadian first choice for guy lafleur


This has to be the best coup that was made by Sam Pollack. In order to have a first pick for the following year 1971, Sam Pollack

traded Ernie Hicke and the Canadiens first round pick of 1970 (10th ) to the California Golden Seals for their first round pick for 1971 and a player

( Francois Lacombe ). Late in the 1970-1971 season, the LA kings were in last place and the Golden Seals were in second last place. So Pollack

convinced the LA Kings to make a trade for Ralph Backstrom. Backstrom's play lifted the Kings out of last place thus securing the first pick which

was Guy Lafleur. The second pick went to the Kings and they picked Marcel Dionne.
