Harvey Jackson
Ralph Harvey "Busher" Jackson (January 17, 1911 – June 25, 1966) was a Canadian professional ice hockey player. Jackson played in the National Hockey League (NHL) from 1929 to 1944 for the Toronto Maple Leafs, New York Americans, and Boston Bruins. He was a member of the Maple Leafs' famed Kid Line with Joe Primeau and Charlie Conacher, one of the early NHL's dominant scoring trios. Jackson led the league in scoring in 1931–32 and was a member of Toronto's 1932 Stanley Cup championship team. He was named to the NHL All-Star team five times and played in three benefit All-Star Games, including the Ace Bailey Benefit Game, the first All-Star contest in NHL history.
Off the ice, Jackson was well-known for his high-spending lifestyle and drinking that prompted his trade from Toronto to New York in 1939. He is remembered as one of hockey's tragic figures, as he struggled with alcoholism and financial difficulty following his retirement. For years his personal difficulties made him ineligible for induction to the Hockey Hall of Fame in the eyes of members of its selection committee. He was finally inducted into the Hall in 1971, five years after his death. Jackson is also an honoured member of Canada's Sports Hall of Fame, into which he was inducted in 1975. He was the brother of fellow NHL player Art Jackson.
