About this person
Calvin Pearly "Ginger, Red, Torchy" Gardner was a Canadian professional ice hockey player. In 1943, after playing professional hockey for three years and winning the Memorial Cup, he joined the Canadian military and took part in World War II. After the war, he returned to professional hockey, joining the New York Rangers affiliate, the New York Rovers. With the Rovers, Gardner centred a line with fellow Manitobans Church Russell and Rene Trudell. The trio were dominant, with all three players being called up to the Rangers and making their National Hockey League debut on February 10, 1946. From their debut, the trio remained intact as a line until December 1947, with the unit being nicknamed "Whiz Kids" and the "rover-boy line." Following the 1948 season, the Rangers traded Gardner to the Toronto Maple Leafs, with whom he won two Stanley Cup championships.
