Norm Dowdall, Cobourg Comets
The leading scorer for Cobourg from the 1954/55 season, Norm Dowdall passed away on December 23, 2025.
As a member of SIHR (Society for International Hockey Research), I am retired and now fancy myself to be a hockey historian. Having learned through Facebook that Mr. Dowdall had passed, I was looking for his obituary and details about his career and fortuitously happened upon your site. Thought you might be interested in learning about his status.
