Bart Hull

Bart Hull, the youngest son of Bobby Hull, spent much of his childhood watching his father play for the WHA Winnipeg Jets. Unlike his brothers, he did not follow in his father's footsteps. He played hockey in his childhood, but gave it up at age 13 and opted to play (American) football. He earned a scholarship to Boise State University and later on went to play in the Canadian Football League (CFL). His career in CFL lasted only five games, partly due to injuries.

After his CFL retirement Hull went on to work in broadcasting. He worked as a color commentator for the WCHL Idaho Steelheads in Boise, Idaho. He went on to play in six games with the Steelheads. Hull dressed only when the team lacked healthy players. While his contribution to hockey pales in comparison with his famous father and brother, his 1997-98 Idaho Steelheads jersey made its way to the Hockey Hall of Fame in Toronto, Ontario.

A decade later Hull got involved with hockey once more. He was named Vice President, Corporate Marketing, by the CHL Allen Americans. In 2013 he followed his brother Brett to St. Louis and was named Vice President of Business Development by the St. Charles Chill, a minor league affiliate of the St. Louis Blues.
