Shoot. Sad day. A total giant of the game. And the Blues and Hawks playing tonite.

Paint that barn Mr. Hall. One of my first favorites on those early Blues teams.

Hard to describe what he meant to me getting into Blues hockey.
What a wonderful life. Just a great person too.

Mr. Goalie!
He and the Plager Brothers have always topped the list of my all-time favorite Blues. They indoctrinated me into hockey. They continue to be the standard by which I evaluate all players.
I was raised out in the country on a farm/ranch. I always related to, and loved, his "painting the barn" stories!!
RIP!! You will be missed!

OMG He was a friend of our family during his time in STL. The first 2-3 years the Blues were in STL they would occasionally have skating parties on my Grandfathers farm pond in Pacific on Sunday afternoons. I was only 10 or 11 so I really did not know him. My mom was his banker when he was here. I really guess he will have a new barn to paint in heaven.

(bleep). My dads favorite player.

Those goalie dudes playing without a mask and street hockey looking pads.
Amazing.
Hall and Plante.
You had to love it.

RIP
His 552 consecutive starts will never be touched. I doubt anyone even gets to half.

Re: Glenn Hall dead at 94
Glenn was a tremendous goalie, but an even better human being. He and the late Leafs goalie, Johnny Bower, were from the same era, and were kind, humble people who were a credit to the sport.
Sad day indeed.

Same
Most Valuable player on a loosing team, Mr Goalie
