Biografie (woord)

Gord Stellick is one of Canada′s best–knownsports personalities, on both sides of the cameras and microphones. He began working with the Toronto Maple Leafs part–time in 1975 at the age of 18. He rose through the organization to become Assistant to the General Manager, then Assistant GM, and ultimately General Manager of the Leafs in 1988. To this day, he remains the youngest GM in NHL history (30 years old when he assumed the position). After 16 months as Leafs GM, he became Assistant GM for the New York Rangers for two years.
Stellick returned to Toronto in 1991, and has been on the media side ever since. He was the colour commentator on all Leaf radio broadcasts from 1991 to 1995, and a member of the Leafs game broadcast team from 1995 to 1998 on CHCH–TV. He was a hockey analyst at The Score (formerly Headline Sports) before joining Rogers′ Sportsnet in 2002. He has hosted sports radio talk shows on the FAN 590 since 1993. As well he is a hockey insider/analyst for the radio station, and hosted the pre– and post–game hockey broadcasts, Blue and White Tonight, on the FAN 590. He is the co–author of two hockey books, has appeared on CBC, Canada AM on CTV, CTV Newsnet, Sportsline on Global TV, and is in demand as an emcee or speaker at corporate and charity events.
