Timeline
He went behind the bench as interim coach in the 1971-72 season, when Johnny McCllelan was hospitalized with ulcers and he became a Goodwill Ambassador to the Leafs.
In 1958, Clancy received the highest honor, when he was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. Clancy remained loyal to the Leafs, despite the decline of the team throughout the 70s and 80s, under the ownership of Harold Ballard.
After the 1955-56 season, Clancy was moved to the front office, where he served as Assistant General Manager and during that time the Leafs won four more Stanley Cups.
By 1953, he returned "home" to The Toronto Maple Leafs, where he served as head coach, from 1953-56, as well as Assistant Coach from 1962-63 and 1967-69.
First as a Head Coach for the Montreal Maroons in the 1937-38 season, then he became an NHL referee for the next 11 seasons, then he would return to coaching the Cincinnati Mohawks and the Pittsburgh Hornets of the American Hockey League and winning the Calder Cup in the 1951-52 season.
After the 1936-37 season, Clancy retired from the Leafs and remained in the game.
In addition, he played in two all star game benefits; First for his teammate, Irvin "Ace" Bailey in 1934 and for Howie Morenz's family in 1937.
The deal paid off in the end when The Leafs won the Stanley Cup in 1932 and Clancy was one of the keys to victory. Throughout his playing career, Clancy was voted into the NHL first and second teams twice.
By 1930, Toronto Maple Leafs Manager Conn Smythe was building the Leafs to bring the Stanley Cup to Toronto. He did this by getting Clancy for astonishing price of $35,000 and two players. Smythe made what was said as "the Best Deal In Hockey". Smythe raised the final $10,000 by going to the racetrack and betting on a long-shot by the name of Rare Jewel.
He had the capability of scoring goals in the double digits, which not too many defensemen in his era could do and he helped lead the Senators to 2 Stanley Cup Championships in 1923 and 1927.
While with the "Sens" from 1921-30, he became a solid defenseman on the blue line, despite being only 5'7 and weighing only 155 pounds.
Francis "King" Clancy was a man who could do it all in the sport of ice hockey: Player, Coach, Refree, Assistant General Manager and if you had cut him, he would more than likely bleed Toronto Maple Leaf Blue. Born in Ottawa, Ontario in on Ferbruary 25th, 1903, he started his professional career with his hometown Ottawa Senators starting in the 1921-22 season and quickly became one of the best players in the league.
