Liscombe was a key member of the 1943 Stanley Cup champions, and scored 36 goals. He shares the team record for most goals in a playoff game and most points in a game, and was the first pro hockey player ever to record 100 points in a season.
He spent the rest of his career in the American Hockey League, and was a two-time Most Valuable Player. In 1949, Liscombe helped the Providence Reds win the Calder Cup.
He died of complications from leukemia.
