Playing career

[edit]

Born in Ottawa, Ontario, Hebert played for several amateur teams in Ottawa before turning professional in 1913 with the Toronto Ontarios of the NHA. In December 1914, he returned home and traded to the Ottawa Senators for Skene Ronan. He played two games for Ottawa in the 1914–15 season before joining the military. After a year in the military, Hebert returned to professional hockey as a member of the Senators. He was part of a three-way trade with Ottawa and Montreal, ending up with the Quebec Bulldogs for the balance of the 1916–17 season. After the suspension of the NHA in 1917, Hebert signed with the Torontos of the NHL, playing two games before being traded to Ottawa for cash. He played the following seasons in amateur competition, returning to professional hockey with the Saskatoon Sheiks of the WCHL in 1921. He played two seasons with Saskatoon before rejoining the Senators in 1924, playing two final games with the Senators to end his career.
