John Dunlop

John Dunlop was a Windsorian who was granted a Rhode’s Scholarship while
attending Dalhousie Law School in 1923. He achieved prominance as a hockeyist
while playing for the Oxford Blues as they dominated the European Ice
Hockey scene in the early 1920s. At the time in hockey history when the
term "shut-out" was first coined, John Dunlop was a master of
the art. Playing on outdoor ice surfaces, mainly on the continent, Dunlop
was guardian of the goal as his team-mates scored lopsided victories over
their adversaries. Teams which Oxford conquered during the continental
tournaments included Cambridge University and senior teams from France,
Germany, Switzerland, and Belgium during annual International Tournaments
held during the Christmas Holiday Season, when natural ice conditions
were at their best.
