The hockey world mourns the loss of Alex Delvecchio, a true gentleman of the game. A longtime teammate and close friend of Gordie, Colleen, and the entire Howe family, Alex will be deeply missed. (1/2)
2 Jul 2025
The NHL Alumni Association is deeply saddened to learn that Alex Delvecchio has passed away at the age of 93.
Making his NHL debut on March 25, 1951, Alex played every one of his 1,550 NHL games with the Detroit Red Wings, registering 1,281 points and winning three Stanley Cups (1952, 54-55). He only missed 43 games throughout his career and was well-known for his gentlemanly style of play, winning the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy on three occasions.
After centreman Sid Abel was moved to the Blackhawks ahead of the 1951-52 season, Alex found himself between Gordie Howe and Ted Lindsay, thus forming the second iteration of the famous Production Line.
Alex served as team captain from 1962 to 1973, and upon his retirement in 1974, served as head coach from 1973 to 1976. A prominent member of the Red Wings Alumni, Alex was often seen attending various community events and supporting charitable causes.
We send our heartfelt condolences to Alex’s family, friends, and former teammates during this incredibly difficult time.

(2/2) Mark Howe fondly remembers his childhood days spent in the Red Wings locker room, where Alex’s stall sat beside Gordie’s. He was always warm and welcoming, leaving a lasting impression with his kindness. His legacy, both on and off the ice, will never be forgotten.

Back in 1963, Gordie surpassed Richard’s mark, and then 31 years later in 1994, his dear friend Wayne—a great friend of our family—took it further. Now, 31 years on again, you’ve gone beyond Wayne and we couldn’t be more thrilled for you. (cont.)

Most of you chose correctly! As Gordie grew up during the Great Depression on a farm with no running water, he and others had to make do with what they had access to. Pucks would be shaped from manure and then frozen for use.

Happy Birthday Dad, Love Mark
"Not a day goes by that you aren't in my thoughts, especially today on your birthday. All the incredible memories we shared together as father and son. Golfing, fishing, playing hockey, doing crossword puzzles, etc.
