Lou Fontinato Autographs
Lou Fontinato was a Canadian professional ice hockey player born on January 20, 1932, in Guelph, Ontario. He played for the New York Rangers, Montreal Canadiens, and the expansion Rangers in a career that spanned over 10 seasons. Known for his physical play, Fontinato was a rugged defender and one of the most feared enforcers in the NHL during the 1950s and early 1960s.
Fontinato's NHL debut came in the 1954–55 season with the New York Rangers, where he played for eight seasons as a defenseman. He soon established himself as an aggressive player, leading the Rangers in penalty minutes for four consecutive seasons. He was also named to the NHL Second All-Star Team for two consecutive seasons in 1957 and 1958. Fontinato was eventually traded to the Montreal Canadiens in a blockbuster deal that sent legendary defenseman Doug Harvey to the Rangers. Fontinato played two seasons for the Canadiens and made it to the Stanley Cup Finals in 1960 before finishing his career with the expansion Rangers from 1963 to 1964.
Fontinato's aggressive style of play earned him several accolades during his career. He was voted the Rangers' best defenseman twice and was awarded the team's most popular player award in the 1958–59 season. In total, he played 535 NHL games and scored 36 goals, 108 assists, and racked up 1,247 penalty minutes. Fontinato was inducted into the Guelph Sports Hall of Fame in 1992 and passed away on July 3, 2016, at the age of 84 years.
