Robert H. Halkidis (born March 5, 1966) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey player.

Playing career

[edit]

As a youth, Halkidis played in the 1979 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with a minor ice hockey team from Toronto.[1]

After a junior hockey career with the London Knights in which he won the Max Kaminsky Trophy as outstanding defenceman in 1984–85, Halkidis joined the Buffalo Sabres. During his career he also played for the Los Angeles Kings, Toronto Maple Leafs, Detroit Red Wings, Tampa Bay Lightning, New York Islanders and HIFK. In 1998 Halkidis won the Finnish championship with HIFK and was very popular among fans due to his rough and uncompromising style of play. Known more as a defensive defenceman, Halkidis recorded 8 goals and 32 assists over 256 NHL games.[2]

Personal life

[edit]

He retired in 2001, and now runs a hockey training and coaching development business. He is currently a pro scout for the Columbus Blue Jackets.[3]

His son, Beau, is an NHL/AHL referee. He made his NHL debut on April 1, 2019. [4]
