===Induction ceremony=== The induction ceremony was held at the Hall of Fame from 1959 until 1974. In 1975, it was held at the [[Fairmont Royal York|Royal York Hotel]] in Toronto and would be held there until 1979. From 1980 to 1992, the ceremony was held at various different locations in Toronto, except for 1986, 1987 and 1991 when the ceremonies were held in [[Vancouver]], Detroit and [[Ottawa]] respectively. Since 1993, it has been held at the current Hall of Fame building.<ref name="Facts"/> The ceremony was first broadcast by [[The Sports Network]] in 1994.<ref>''Honoured members: the Hockey Hall of Fame'', p. 194</ref> [[File:Curtis Joseph HHOF jersey (photo by Djuradj Vujcic).jpg|thumb|upright|left|[[Curtis Joseph]]'s jersey from the 2001 Hockey Hall of Fame game, displayed at the hall of fame entrance inside [[Brookfield Place (Toronto)|Brookfield Place]]]] In 1999 the "Hockey Hall of Fame game" was established, a contest between the [[Toronto Maple Leafs]] and a visiting team, with a special ceremony honouring that year's inductees held before the game.<ref>''Honoured members: the Hockey Hall of Fame'', p. 207</ref> Robert Tychkowski of the ''[[Edmonton Sun]]'' reports that many, including [[Edmonton Oilers]] president [[Kevin Lowe]], believe the induction ceremony should be held on a night when there are no NHL games scheduled.
