Hossu was originally scheduled to be inducted into the HHOF as early as 2020, but they postponed the ceremony by a year. The Hall of Fame leadership presented him with the most significant career awards at the same time as goalkeeper Kim St-Pierre, defender Kevin Lowe and Doug Wilson, striker Jarome Iglin and general manager Ken Holland.
For all, the inaugural weekend began with Friday’s Toronto-Calgary (2: 1 pp) match and will run until November 15.
