Robert Phelps played nearly 20 years in this league. Let that sink for a second. In possibly the most dangerous sport in the world where injuries that destroy careers are common, Robert kept on going for nearly two decades.

His longevity alone is enough to celebrate him but I wanted to go in depth with him because, much like Mike Izzy, Robert is a personal hero of mine.

He rose to the top of the Hamilton Steehawks and would lead them through multiple eras of hockey. He would serve as a mentor to younger players and keep on pushing for glory. No matter how hard the hit or how painful the loss, Robert would keep pushing on, knowing that Hamilton could win the cup, they just had to keep trying.

Eventually, Hamilton would prove him right. Winning the cup first in Season 53 and then, as he entered the final season of his career, Robert wanted to lift the cup one more time. Hamilton would make the run and hoisting the cup over his head, Robert retired after the season was concluded.

A scholar, a gentleman, a champion amongst men, Robert Phelps helped define the league for two decades and his place in Toronto is thoroughly deserved.

Thank you Robert, For everything!
