Dickie Moore was a Canadian left wing who won six Stanley Cups with the Montreal Canadiens dynasty and twice led the league in scoring.

Richard Winston Moore was born in Montreal, Quebec in 1931. He spent most of his career with the Montreal Canadiens — winning six Stanley Cup championships (1953, 1956, 1957, 1958, 1959, 1960) as a key member of the dynasty. He won the Art Ross Trophy as scoring champion twice — most remarkably in 1958 when he played significant portions of the season with a broken wrist, refusing to sit out, and still led the league in scoring. He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1974 and named one of the 100 Greatest NHL Players in 2017. His reputation is that of the ultimate competitor — he played through injuries that would have stopped most players and continued producing at elite levels. His 1958 scoring title while injured is one of hockey's most celebrated individual achievements. The Montreal dynasty of five consecutive Stanley Cups from 1956 to 1960 required contributions from players across the lineup and Moore was one of the most consistent.
