The Hockey Hall of Fame has officially announced Reggie Leach as an inductee. This recognition corrects a long absence in the history of the game and honors the legacy he built on the ice. Thank you for staying committed to this effort until the goal was finally reached.

Whereas Reggie Leach was born and played his minor hockey back in our home town. The Rifle fired his first 500 here, then slapped his way into the NHL.
Whereas some of us weren't always fair to the Native kid on borrowed skates. Chippy Goolies and Ukrainians in the corners with our elbows up.
Whereas Reggie, on a playoff run, could make a dad go buy the new TV and put his youngest by the window, place the split antenna in her tiny hands.
Whereas photos from the old Tribune of Reggie smiling with the Stanley Cup curled their corners, dropped off bedroom walls. Left a square of where they used to be.
Therefore we, the undersigned, put forth his name to the Hockey Hall of Fame.

Reaching this current level of support confirms that the impact Reggie Leach had on our community remains deeply held in our collective memory. It is a quiet honor to see so many people choose to revisit those old stories and recognize his rightful place in the sport.

The stories shared in the comments section paint a clear picture of what Reggie meant to our community. I am currently working on a formal proposal to ensure these memories are presented directly to the selection committee.

Watching the count approach one hundred signatures reminds me of how many people still hold the memory of Reggie on the ice with such clarity. If you are reading this and have not yet passed the link to a fellow fan, please take a moment to do so now. We need to reach this threshold to demonstrate the lasting weight of his legacy.
