About Dunc MacIntyre

  • Dunc MacIntyre (born July 3, 1964) was a Canadian ice hockey player for the Ontario Hockey League (OHL).
  • He spent the majority of his career playing as a centre for the Belleville Bulls, and he is the only player in the franchise's history to have his number retired. Born in Brockville, Ontario, Dunc MacIntyre joined the Bulls as #15 in 1981, the team's inaugural season in the OHL.
  • He quickly became a fan favourite, drawing praise for his tireless work effort and fearless play, prompting a local newspaper to describe him as "tenacious competitor on the ice and a gentleman off".[1]Because he stood at a comparatively squat 5 feet 8 inches and weighed a slight 167 pounds, MacIntyre was a distant eleventh-round draft pick in the OHL.
  • He made up for his short stature, however, by his speed and agility.
  • He played 267 games, had 206 assists, and recorded a record-breaking 348 points on 142 goals.
  • He holds the team's record for scoring and for longest time as team captain, three seasons.[2] MacIntyre played briefly in the now defunct International Hockey League (IHL) for the Salt-Lake Golden Eagles before finishing off his career in the American Hockey League (AHL), playing for two more seasons for the Fredericton Express.
  • There he was affectionately nicknamed Dunc "The Tank" MacIntyre. Although no Belleville player wore #15 since MacIntyre's last season, his number was not officially retired until a pre-game ceremony on March 21, 2000.[3] He now works as a police officer in the Toronto area.
