Joseph Lynn Patrick (born February 3, 1912 in Victoria , British Columbia , † January 26, 1980 ) was a Canadian ice hockey player (left winger) and coach who played for the New York Rangers in the National Hockey League from 1934 to 1946 .
Career
As the son of the famous ice hockey player and official Lester Patrick , Lynn grew up on Canada's west coast. He was of course guided by his father, but he can look back on no particular junior career. After the ice rink at home burned down, he hardly had a chance to play ice hockey until he moved to Montreal with his parents.
After a year with the Montreal Royals , his father, who was general manager in New York, brought him to the New York Rangers for the 1934/35 season . Often he had to deal with the accusation that he had only got his place on an NHL team because of his father, but Lynn proved on the ice that his commitment was athletically justified. For five years, his brother Muzz was in the squad, including when the Rangers won the Stanley Cup in the 1939/40 season. In the 1941/42 season he was the top scorer in the NHL with 32 goals. At the age of 34 he ended his active career in the NHL after the 1945/46 season .
As a player-coach, he went on the ice for the New Haven Ramblers in the AHL the following year , before devoting himself only to the task behind the gang. He returned to the NHL as coach of the Boston Bruins for the 1950/51 season. After four years he replaced Art Ross as general manager of the Bruins and handed over the coaching position to Milt Schmidt . In 1965 he left Boston and trained for one season with the Los Angeles Blades in the WHL . When the NHL was expanded for the 1967/68 season , he took over as the first coach and general manager of the St. Louis Blues . After a year he moved to the presidium of the Blues and made way for Scotty Bowman , who until then had only looked after junior teams. In 1977 he retired from ice hockey.
His son, Craig Patrick , also played over 400 games in the NHL. Less than a month after Lynn's death, Craig won the Olympic gold medal as assistant general manager with the US team at the so-called " Miracle on Ice " .
In 1980 he was honored with the induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame . Both his father and son are also members.
