Doug Wilson (ice hockey)

Douglas Frederick Wilson (born July 5, 1957) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey defenceman and the current general manager of the San Jose Sharks of the National Hockey League.

Playing career

After a junior hockey career for the Ottawa 67's in the Ontario Hockey Association, Wilson was drafted in the first round, 6th overall, in the 1977 NHL Entry Draft. He then played 14 seasons with the Chicago Black Hawks and two years for the San Jose Sharks in the National Hockey League. He was the first captain in Sharks history, serving two years before retiring after the 1992–93 season.

Wilson played 14 seasons in Chicago and still ranks as the club's highest scoring defenceman in points (779 — fifth overall), goals (225 — 12th overall) and assists (554 — third overall). Wilson is fifth all-time in games played (938) for Chicago. He also led all Blackhawks defencemen in scoring for 10 consecutive seasons (1980–81 through 1990–91). In 1982, he was awarded the James Norris Memorial Trophy, as the League's top defenceman. That year, he had 39 goals and 85 points, which is still the Blackhawks single-season records for goals and points for a defenceman.
