Three stars were first awarded in the 1936-37 NHL season as a means for Imperial (then Hockey Night in Canada's new principal sponsor) to advertise its Three Star brand of gasoline.

By 1950, three million Canadians listened to Esso hockey broadcasts each week – and in 1952, we expanded our broadcast sponsorship to include television.

We were a founding sponsor of the Hockey Hall of Fame, which opened in 1993, and also have sponsored the Legends of Hockey Tour.
