Wilfrid "Billy" Arthur Coutu (March 1, 1892 - February 28, 1978) was born Wilfrid Arthur Coutu. Coutu was a professional Canadian defenceman who played 10 seasons in the National Hockey League for the Montreal Canadiens, the Hamilton Tigers, and the Boston Bruins. He was the first, and so far only player banned from the NHL for life, as a result of his attack on a referee in 1927. A former captain of the Montreal Canadiens (1925–26), Coutu also played for the Boston Bruins and Hamilton Tigers and coached the Providence Reds. His name appears on the 1923–24 Stanley Cup ring.
