Elwin Nelson "Doc" Romnes (January 1, 1907 – July 21, 1984) was an American ice hockey player and coach. He played professionally in the National Hockey League (NHL) with the Chicago Black Hawks, Toronto Maple Leafs, and New York Americans from 1930 to 1940. He won the Lady Byng Trophy in 1935–36 for sportsmanship and gentlemanly play, and with Chicago won the Stanley Cup twice, in 1934 and 1938.
Following his player career, Romnes was head coach of the Michigan Tech Huskies from 1941 to 1945 (including two years when the program was suspended during World War II), and the Minnesota Golden Gophers from 1947 until 1952. He was inducted into the United States Hockey Hall of Fame in 1973.[1]
