Stew Gavin
Picked up by the Toronto Maple Leafs, Stew Gavin worked hard to establish himself as a Leaf regular. By 1982, he became Toronto’s designated checker and penalty killer. Traded to Hartford in 1985, he continued to excel defensively while lifting his offensive numbers. In 1988, Minnesota claimed him on waivers. In 1993, he had blown his knee and his career was effectively over (even though he attempted a come-back a year later). Working as a scout for Dallas, he eventually formed Gavin Management Group, a financial planning company for professional athletes and executives. He is an excellent speaker and guest for a business or finance-oriented event.
