Leafs release statement after passing of Bobby Baun

There isn't a Leafs fan alive who hasn't heard the legend of Bobby Baun. After blocking a Gordie Howe shot in game 6 of the 1964 Stanley Cup Finals, Baun collapsed onto the ice and had to be taken off the ice on a stretcher. Rather than going to the hospital, Baun had his leg frozen and taped up before returning to the game for overtime. A rolling puck and a quick shot from the point off of Bain's stick found it's way past Wings goaltender Terry Sawchuk. The series was tied, and a legend was born. 2 days later, the Leafs took game 7 by a score of 4-0, Baun played and was a +2. It was only after the celebration of the Leafs' third straight Stanley Cup that Baun had X rays taken and discovered the hairline fracture in his leg.
