TORONTO (AP) -- Johnny Wilson, a four-time Stanley Cup champion
with the Detroit Red Wings, has died. He was 82.

Toronto Maple Leafs coach Ron Wilson announced his uncle's death Tuesday on Twitter. The coach called him a "warrior thru & thru,
right to the end." There was no immediate word on cause of death.

Johnny Wilson was born in Kincardine, Ontario, and spent 11
years in the NHL with Detroit, Toronto, Chicago and the New York
Rangers.

He had 161 goals and 171 assists in 688 games. Wilson
coached seven seasons in the NHL with Los Angeles, Detroit,
Colorado and Pittsburgh.

Wilson won the Stanley Cup with Detroit in 1950, 1952, 1954 and
1955. He was honored by the NHL in 1960 for an ironman streak at
the time that totaled 580 consecutive regular-season games.
