NHL Hall Of Famer Bobby Hull, The Golden Jet, Dead At 84

According to an announcement by the NHL Alumni Association on Monday morning, Bobby Hull (known as the Golden Jet for his speed skating and blonde hair) has died. He was 84 years of age.

Hull is the Chicago Blackhawks’ all-time leading scorer, scoring more than 600 goals over his 15-year career. ESPN reported. He was a twelve-time All-Star as well as a Hart Trophy winner twice.

“Bobby Hull will always be remembered as one of the greatest Blackhawks players of all time,” Rocky Wirtz, Chicago Blackhawks chairman, released a statement. “He was a beloved member of the Blackhawks family. When I assumed leadership of the organization upon my father’s passing in 2007, one of my first priorities was to meet with Bobby to convince him to come back as an ambassador of the team. His connection to our fans was special and irreplaceable. On behalf of the entire Wirtz family, I offer our deepest condolences on the loss of Bobby Hull, the Golden Jet. He will be missed.”

NHL Alumni Association is sad to announce that Bobby Hull, 84, has died.
