Earl Seibert

Walter Earl Seibert (December 7, 1910 – May 12, 1990) was a Canadian ice hockey defenceman who played for 15 seasons for the Chicago Black Hawks, New York Rangers and Detroit Red Wings between 1931 and 1946.

Earl was an important member of the 1933 New York Rangers and 1938 Chicago Black Hawks Stanley Cup victories.

A tenacious defender, Seibert was renowned for rugged physical play, famously being the only player Eddie Shore was unwilling to fight.

After his NHL retirement, Seibert served as coach of Eddie Shore's Springfield Indians.
