From the eulogy posted by the Leafs:
We mourn the loss of Ron Ellis, a lifetime Leaf whose legacy is woven into the fabric of the blue and white. Ron played his entire NHL career for Toronto. He was one of only five Maple Leafs to skate in more than 1,000 games for the club while also scoring the fifth most goals in team history. Ron was a true gentleman of the game who will be deeply missed.
Our thoughts are with his loved ones.
I have personal reasons to feel this just a little more keenly. Ron was a hero of mine. Rest easy.
Did he play on the team in 95?
I remember playing NHL 95 on the SNES with an Ellis on the leafs.
But if so, he would have been…**check notes** 49?
RIP Ron
