  • Ex-Nhler Greg Hotham Lands in the Aurora Sports Hall of Fame
    This page was exported from - The Auroran Export date: Wed Sep 29 6:57:53 2021 / +0000 GMT Ex-NHLer Greg Hotham lands in the Aurora Sports Hall of Fame By Jake Courtepatte Greg Hotham enters the Aurora Sports Hall of Fame as one of two residents inducted into the Athlete category in 2014. Although Hotham was born in London, Ontario, his family moved to Aurora in 1960 when he was four years old. ?I think the population around that time was maybe 5,000 people,? said Hotham. ?As a matter of fact, my parents are still living in the same house.? It was with the Aurora Minor Hockey Association that he first laced up his skates, playing house league until the age of eight when he would move up to the Aurora Legion PeeWee All-Star team. After being cut by the OHL's Toronto Marlboros two years in a row, Hotham kept busy on his skates playing for both St. Andrew's College and the Aurora Tigers in his teens. He would make his NHL debut in 1979, after being picked in the fifth round of the 1976 NHL Draft by his hometown Toronto Maple Leafs. Although the Hothams cheered for the Maple Leafs on television every Saturday, Hotham admitted that growing up he had a soft spot for the Detroit Red Wings because of his favourite player, Gordie Howe. Hotham then spent part of three seasons with the Maple Leafs, acquiring fifteen points over sixty games before moving to the Pittsburgh Penguins. Coming full circle, Hotham ended his professional career where it all began ? in Newmarket, with the Newmarket Saints of the AHL.
