Roy Edwards

Allan Roy Edwards (March 12, 1937 – August 16, 1999) was a Canadian professional ice hockey goaltender who played 236 games in the National Hockey League between 1967 and 1973. In 1958, at age 21, Edwards backstopped the Whitby Dunlops, Canada's representative, at the World Championships in Oslo, Norway, posting a perfect 7–0 record in the eight-team round-robin tournament. He played every minute of those seven games, recording three shutouts and allowing six total goals for a 0.86 goals-against average, and won the gold medal with the Canadian national team.

His road to the NHL was a long, winding one; over nine years he played for seven teams in four leagues. In 1960, he became property of the Chicago Black Hawks, and his name was engraved on the Stanley Cup in 1961 even though he never played a single game for Chicago. On June 6, 1967, the Pittsburgh Penguins selected him in the expansion draft, but traded him to the Detroit Red Wings the very next day. Edwards went on to play for both the Red Wings and the Penguins before his NHL career ended in 1973.
