Cette institution fut fondée en 1943, mais ce n'est que deux ans plus tard qu'on y intronisa les premiers membres, 11 hockeyeurs, parmi lesquels deux distingués joueurs des Canadiens de Montréal, Howie Morenz et Georges Vézina.

L'édifice du Temple de la renommée du hockey, situé à Toronto, ouvrit ses portes en août 1961, puis, en juin 1993, le panthéon du hockey s'installa dans une bâtisse moderne, le Brookfield Place (anciennement BCE Place) de Toronto. En 2009, il comptait 362 membres (247 joueurs, 100 bâtisseurs, 15 officiels). Le Temple de la renommée du hockey honore également des représentants des médias avec le prix Elmer-Fergeson et le prix Foster-Hewitt.
