Phil Esposito Motivational Speaker Fee | Booking Agent Contact

Philip Anthony Esposito is widely regarded as one of the most influential figures in the history of professional ice hockey. Born on February 20, 1942, in Canada, Esposito enjoyed a stellar 18-season career in the National Hockey League (NHL), playing for the Chicago Black Hawks, Boston Bruins, and New York Rangers. His time with the Boston Bruins was particularly notable, as he led the team to two Stanley Cup victories. Esposito's offensive prowess revolutionized the game, and he became the first player in NHL history to score more than 100 points in a single season, a feat he accomplished six times throughout his career.

Esposito's dominance on the ice was further highlighted by his ability to score goals at an unprecedented rate. He became the first player to score 50 goals in five consecutive seasons, setting a then-record of 76 goals in the 1970-71 season. That same year, he also set a record for the most points in a season with 152. Over the course of his career, Esposito won the Art Ross Trophy five times as the league's leading scorer and led the NHL in goals six times. His contributions to the game earned him two Hart Trophies as the league's Most Valuable Player (MVP) and six selections to the NHL First All-Star Team.

After retiring as a player, Esposito transitioned into coaching and management roles. He served as the head coach and general manager of the New York Rangers for two seasons. In 1991, Esposito co-founded the Tampa Bay Lightning alongside his brother, Tony Esposito, marking the first NHL expansion team in Florida. Philip Esposito served as the franchise's first president and general manager until 1998, and he continues to be involved with the team as a radio color commentator. His contributions to the sport have been recognized with numerous honors, including his induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame and the retirement of his #7 jersey by the Boston Bruins.

Esposito's legacy in hockey is cemented by his inclusion in the NHL's '100 Greatest Players' list in 2017 and his ranking as the ninth-best player of all time by The Athletic in 2023. His impact on the game extends beyond his playing days, as he remains a prominent figure in the hockey community. A statue in his likeness stands outside Tampa Bay's Amalie Arena, a testament to his enduring influence on the sport.
