High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Robert Brian Ftorek (born January 2, 1952 in Needham, Massachusetts) is a former NHL player and coach. He was enshrined as member of the United States Hockey Hall of Fame in 1991. Ftorek is currently the head coach of the Erie Otters of the Ontario Hockey League. As a player, he was a member of the 1972 United States Olympic Hockey team that surprisingly won the silver medal at the 1972 Winter Olympics. Ftorek also played for Team USA at the 1972 "Pool B" Ice Hockey World Championship where he was selected to the tournament all-star team. Originally drafted by the New England Whalers of the World Hockey Association in 1972, he instead signed with the NHL's Detroit Red Wings. However, the Red Wings regarded Ftorek as too small to make it as a professional and he only appeared in a handful of NHL games. Having spent most of his time in the minors with the AHL's Virginia Wings, Ftorek decided to move over to the WHA in 1974, and it was at this time the Whalers traded his WHA rights to the Phoenix Roadrunners.
