历史背景

The Hockey Hall of Fame was established in 1943 under James T. Sutherland, originally planned for Kingston, Ontario. The first inductees were honoured in 1945 before a permanent home existed. It moved to Toronto in 1958 after the NHL withdrew support for the Kingston site, opening as a temporary exhibit at Exhibition Place. A permanent building opened there in 1961. In 1993, the Hall relocated to its current downtown location inside Brookfield Place and a historic Bank of Montreal building.
