Maurice Joseph L'Abbé (born August 12, 1947 in Montreal, Quebec) was a professional ice hockey player in the National Hockey League.
Playing career
L'Abbé was drafted by the Chicago Black Hawks in the 1964 NHL Amateur Draft in the fourth round, 22nd overall. It was not until almost a decade later, in 1972–73 that he actually made it to the NHL level. Prior to making it to the NHL, he had played in five different minor leagues on five different teams. His big break into the NHL would not last long, though. After only five games (and one assist), he was sent back down to the minors, where he finished off his career playing for the Dallas Black Hawks of the Central Hockey League.
