Sweeney Schriner

Sweeney Schriner
The first Russian born player in the National Hockey League, Sweeney Schriner was a lot more than the answer to that trivia question. Schriner was only in “Mother Russia” for the first month in his life, and for all intensive purposes was like any other Canadian kid obsessed with Hockey. Schriner made an immediate impact in the pro ranks winning the Calder Trophy and leading the NHL twice in scoring while a member of the New York Americans.   Schriner was traded to the Toronto Maple Leafs in what was then an unprecedented five for one deal. His production slipped a bit, but he was still a big part of the Leafs 1942 Stanley Cup win.
