Classic Snap Shot: Hockey Hall of Fame

Since it is Hockey Hall of Fame Induction Day, this is a most fitting choice for today's Classic Snap Shot:


That is Cyclone Taylor breaking ground on the original Hockey Hall of Fame building in Toronto. Foster Hewitt stands behind him.

The Hockey Hall of Fame began enshrining members in 1945, but they had no actual home or museum until 1958 in Toronto. Three years later, a new building opened at Exhibition Place, giving the Hall a permanent home.

The Hall of Fame moved to it's current location at the old Bank of Montreal building in downtown Toronto in 1993.
