Famous Canadians

Irvine Wallace “Ace” Bailey was a professional hockey player. He played for the Toronto Maple Leafs from 1926-1933.

Bailey was born in Bracebridge in 1903. Bailey‘s career ended on December 12, 1933, when he was hit from behind by Eddie Shore of the Boston Bruins. It was feared that Bailey would not survive after severely injuring his head. Bailey did recover but never played hockey again.

The Ace Bailey Benefit Game was the first all-star game in National Hockey League (NHL) history. It was played on February 14, 1934, at Maple Leaf Gardens in Toronto to raise money to support Ace Bailey.
