Lynn Patrick enjoyed a 10-year playing career in the National Hockey League, all with the New York Rangers. After his playing days were over, Patrick turned his attention to coaching. He spent two seasons as coach of the Rangers, before taking a similar position with the Boston Bruins. During the 1954-55 season Patrick turned the Bruins' coaching reigns over to Milt Schmidt and took on the job as the team’s general manager. He held that position until the 1964-65 campaign. Following a brief stint as the coach and general manager with Los Angeles in the Western Hockey League, Lynn Patrick returned to the NHL. Expansion in the mid-1960s saw Patrick head to the midwest, where he started a lengthy association with the St. Louis Blues. During the next 11 years, Patrick would serve as the coach, general manager and vice president of the Blues.
