Scotty Morrison, NHL Ref Legend, Dies at 95
Ian "Scotty" Morrison, the youngest ref ever to hit NHL ice at 24 and later the Hall of Fame's visionary president, passes away peacefully at 95 in B.C. He whistled games from 1954, ran officiating as ref-in-chief, then built the Hall's downtown Toronto palace that opened in '93. Hockey loses a builder who rubbed shoulders with Gretzky and shaped the game's shrine, leaving front offices and old-timers reflecting on his unmatched legacy.
