Marc Crawford
As a player, Marc Crawford played all 176 games of his six-year career with the Vancouver Canucks. As the rookie head coach of the Quebec Nordiques, he won the Jack Adams trophy for coach of the year – the youngest person ever to do so. Moving with the Nordiques to Colorado in 1995, Crawford lead the newly-named Avalanche to its first Stanley Cup – the third youngest head coach ever to do so. After leaving Colorado, he became an analyst with the CBC and then signed on with Vancouver in 1999. He has the most wins in Canuck history (161), led the 2004 team to several team records and holds the NHL record for best regular-season winning percentage. He was Team Canada’s head coach in the 1998 Nagano Olympics and assistant coach in the 1996 World Cup.
