Why is the hockey player Bobby Hull famous?

Robert Marvin Hull, born January 3, 1939 in Pointe Anne (near Belleville), Ontario, Canada, is regarded as one of the greatest ice hockey players and perhaps the greatest left winger to ever play the game. He played his minor hockey in Belleville, and then junior hockey for the St. Catharines Teepees in the Ontario Hockey Association, before joining the Chicago Blackhawks in 1957 at the age of 18. Bobby Hull was famous for his blinding speed and the most feared slapshot of his time. He and his teammate, Hall of Famer Stan Mikita, became notorious for curving the blades of their sticks. Armed already with a blazing, heavy shot, the curved blade caused the puck to veer high and to all different angles. Hull's ability to harness the blade's unpredictability would make it one of hockey's most memorable signatures.
