Timeline

1946

Paul Shmyr (January 18, 1946 – September 2, 2004) was a Canadian professional ice hockey defenceman who played in the World Hockey Association (WHA) and National Hockey League (NHL).

1971

He featured in the 1971 Stanley Cup Finals with the Chicago Black Hawks and the 1981 Stanley Cup Finals with the Minnesota North Stars.

Shmyr was one of the top defensive stars in the short history of the WHA, noted for his hard-nosed play, having jumped from the NHL's California Golden Seals to the upstart Cleveland Crusaders.

1973

Shmyr was named to the WHA's First All-Star Team in 1973, 1974, and 1976, and to its Second All-Star Team in 1979.

He finished third in the WHA's career leaders for games played, twentieth in assists, and fourth in penalty minutes.

1974

He represented Canada at the 1974 Summit Series and was one of only two WHAers (the other being Bobby Hull) to be invited to try out for Team Canada at the 1976 Canada Cup, though he failed to make the team.

He was from a hockey-playing family; his younger brother John Shmyr also played in the WHA.

1976

He played four seasons for Cleveland, garnering the league's top defenceman trophy in 1976.

He subsequently played for the WHA's San Diego Mariners, where he enjoyed his best offensive campaign, and played two years for the Edmonton Oilers, captaining the club to a regular season league championship in the WHA's final season.

As captain, he elected to wear a Cyrillic "К" instead of the customary captain's "C" due to his Ukrainian heritage.

1979

After the WHA folded, the Minnesota North Stars, which owned his rights, reclaimed him, and as a noted leader, was named to captain the North Stars in 1979.

1980

While the Stars' captain, he led them to a semifinals appearance in 1980 and to the 1981 Stanley Cup Finals, where they lost to the New York Islanders.

1981

He then signed with the Hartford Whalers as a free agent in 1981, and retired after one season.

2004

Shmyr died of throat cancer in 2004, at the age of 58.

2010

In 2010, he was elected as an inaugural inductee into the World Hockey Association Hall of Fame.
