	Dit Clapper - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Aubrey Victor "Dit" Clapper (February 9, 1907 in Newmarket, Ontario—January 21, 1978 in Newmarket, Ontario, Canada) was a Canadian Hall of Fame ice hockey player.
		Clapper was given the nickname "Dit" at an early age.
		Clapper coached the Bruins for two seasons as a player-coach and for two more seasons after his retirement.

		Clapper did that in his final two seasons in a Boston uniform, after which he had already gained the distinction of being named to post-season All-Star teams as both a forward and defenseman and played for three Stanley Cup champions.
		Clapper remains the only Bruin to play on three Cup teams, the only player in NHL history named an All-Star at forward and defense, and he'll forever be the first player to play 20 NHL seasons.
		Clapper, who was elected to the Hall of Fame in 1947, died in 1978.

		Throughout his pro tenure, Clapper was a respected leader on the ice and in the dressing room.
		Clapper was therefore moved back to his original position on defense, and the reassignment inspired him to play some of the best hockey of his career.
		The work of Clapper and Eddie Shore was crucial to Boston's win over the Toronto Maple Leafs in the 1939 Stanley Cup finals, and between 1939 and 1941 he was named to the NHL First All-Star Team three consecutive times.

	Ghosts of The Past
		Clapper spent all twenty of his seasons playing for the Boston Bruins, the first half of his career as a right-winger and the second half as a defenseman.
		Clapper paid Trottier a lesson for his transgression by beating the living heck out of him, so badly in fact that the referee, none other than Clarence Campbell, had to pull Clapper off of the Maroon by his hair.
		Clapper appeared in two NHL All-Star contests and was elected to Hockey’s Hall of Fame in 1947 while he was still an active player.

	MOP Squad Sports - Boston Bruins History
		Despite the continued presence of Shore, Thompson, and Clapper, playoff success eluded the Bruins for the better part of a decade, though the team did manage several more first place finishes in the American Division and had just two losing seasons.
		Clapper was replaced in 1949-50 by Buck Boucher, who gave way the next season to Lynn Patrick; when Ross retired from his general manager’s position in the 1953-54 season, Patrick replaced him, and remained in that position until 1965.
		The team also saw numerous changes on the ice, as Bauer retired in 1947, Brimsek was traded to Chicago in 1949, and the rest of the Kraut Line, Schmidt and Dumart, joined Bauer in retirement in 1954-55.
