- Broda was born in Brandon, Manitoba on May 15, 1914. He originally belonged to the Detroit Red Wings and was sold to the Toronto Maple Leafs by the Detroit Olympics in May, 1936, for $8,000.00. This was a record at the time for a minor league player. At the same time Detroit announced the signing of Jimmy Franks to replace Broda. He was inducted to the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1967 and died on October 17, 1972, aged only 58, after having suffered a heart attack. Ironically, he died just two weeks before the death of his goaltender rival, Bill Durnan.
