The Flyers mourn the passing of forward Forbes Kennedy. Kennedy was an original Flyer who came to Philadelphia during the club’s inaugural season in 1967.
We extend our deepest condolences to his teammates, family, friends, and all who had the privilege of knowing him.
The NHL Alumni Association is deeply saddened to learn that Forbes Kennedy has passed away at the age of 90.
From New Brunswick, Forbes grew up in Prince Edward Island and played his junior hockey in Charlottetown, Halifax, and later with the Montreal Jr. Canadiens before making the jump to professional hockey in 1956 with the NHL’s Chicago Black Hawks.
Forbes made his NHL debut on October 11, 1956, on the road against the Detroit Red Wings at the Detroit Olympia. In just his eighth career game, on October 30, 1956, Forbes scored his first NHL goal against the Boston Bruins at Chicago Stadium. Recording 21 points in his rookie season, Forbes finished fourth in voting for the Calder Memorial Trophy as the league’s top rookie, receiving 30 first-place votes in the process.
After one season in Chicago, Forbes joined the Detroit Red Wings ahead of the 1957-58 NHL season and appeared in all 70 regular-season games with Detroit. Forbes played an additional three seasons with the Red Wings, before playing the next four seasons with the Boston Bruins from 1962 to 1966. Forbes later joined the Philadelphia Flyers and the Toronto Maple Leafs, playing the final 13 of his 603 career NHL regular-season games with the Toronto during the 1968-69 season.
Forbes’ professional hockey career continued for one more season after his time in the NHL, suiting up for the AHL’s Buffalo Bisons, where he would capture the 1970 Calder Cup as American League champions.
Forbes returned to Canada’s East Coast after his playing days and began his coaching career, which would later take him to the Southern Hockey League in North Carolina, before returning to Charlottetown, this time as head coach.
A cherished member of his local hockey community, Forbes was inducted into the PEI Sports Hall of Fame in 1968 and was later an inaugural inductee into the Maritime Sport Hall of Fame.
We send our deepest condolences to Forbes’ family, friends, and former teammates during this difficult time.
