Kevin Stevens
Encyclopedia
Kevin "Artie" Stevens is a retired ice hockey
player and current NHL scout
for the Pittsburgh Penguins
. He played left wing
on a line with Mario Lemieux
during the Penguins' Stanley Cup
championships in 1991 and 1992. During his career, he played with the Penguins, Boston Bruins
, Los Angeles Kings
, New York Rangers
, and Philadelphia Flyers
.
in Kingston, Massachusetts, Kevin Stevens played both hockey and baseball. He was invited to try out for both the Toronto Blue Jays
and the Philadelphia Phillies
; however, admitting that he wasn't a great hitter in baseball, he decided to play hockey instead. Stevens accepted a full scholarship to play hockey for Boston College
, and was drafted in the sixth round (108th overall) in the 1983 NHL draft
by the Los Angeles Kings
. Several months later, his rights would be traded to the Pittsburgh Penguins
for Anders Hakansson
, a left winger from Sweden who had recently been traded to the Penguins along with Ron Meighan
from the Minnesota North Stars
for the Penguins' first round pick of the 1983 draft (Brian Lawton
).
Upon graduating from Boston College in 1987, Stevens joined the U.S. National Team under the direction of famed head coach Herb Brooks
. Stevens' play steadily improved during his time with the team and he finished with 45 points in 44 games.
(NHL) and the Muskegon Lumberjacks
of the International Hockey League (IHL), Stevens became one of the top left wingers and power forwards in the league over the next four seasons. He had four-straight seasons of at least 40 goals and 80 points from 1990–94 and surpassed 50 goals and 100 points in back to back seasons of 1991–92 and 1992–93. In the 1991–92 NHL season, Stevens became only the 3rd person in NHL history to outscore Wayne Gretzky
in the regular season, though he still finished 2nd in points to teammate Mario Lemieux
. His 123 points that year also set a record for the most points by an American-born player and a left wing in one season. During the Pittsburgh Penguins
back-to-back Stanley Cup
seasons of 1990–91 and 1991–92, Stevens was the only Penguin to play in every regular season and playoff game. He's also one of four NHL players (the others are Keith Tkachuk, Brendan Shanahan and Gary Roberts) to have accumulated more than 50 goals and at least 200 PIM in a season. His 17 goals during the 90–91 playoffs are tied for 3rd all-time (only Jari Kurri and Reggie Leach with 19 and Joe Sakic with 18 have surpassed that mark). He scored 13 more in the 91–92 postseason.
On May 14, 1993, the Penguins were playing the New York Islanders
in game seven of the Patrick Division
Finals when Kevin Stevens suffered a terrible injury. Early in the first period, Stevens skated in and attempted to hit Islanders defenceman Rich Pilon, but instead was met by Pilon's visor which promptly knocked Stevens unconscious. He fell and hit the ice face first, and was unable to use his hands or arms to cushion the blow. Stevens then needed extensive reconstructive surgery on his face. Doctors cut an incision below his hairline from ear-to-ear, which was later closed with over 100 stitches, peeled back his skin and reassembled the bones in Stevens face with the use of metal plates. Stevens came back to have one more strong season for the Penguins in 1993–94 (41 goals, 47 assists), before being traded the next year.
Stevens was sent to the Boston Bruins
in 1995 along with Shawn McEachern
for Glen Murray
and Bryan Smolinski
. After being traded from the Penguins, Stevens never again reached the success that he had while in Pittsburgh. After "disappointing" in Boston with 23 points in 41 games, he was traded to the Los Angeles Kings
. After a dismal season, he was traded to the New York Rangers
in 1997, where he experienced several solid seasons, but failed match the expectations levied on him when he played for the Penguins.
During the 1999–2000 season, Stevens would struggle in his NHL career. Not only did he rarely see the ice during this season, but after a game against the St. Louis Blues, he was caught in an East St. Louis, Illinois
motel with a prostitute and crack cocaine. After this event, Stevens entered the NHL Substance Abuse Program.
After being released from the program, he played a brief stint with the Philadelphia Flyers
before being traded to the Pittsburgh Penguins for a second time. After one decent season and another season where he rarely received playing time, he retired from the NHL in 2002.
In 2005, Stevens again found national attention when a video clip from the early 1990s was circulated on the internet. The clip, taken from the NHL raw feed of a Pittsburgh Penguins
vs. Minnesota North Stars
game during the 1991 Stanley Cup
Finals, shows Stevens and fellow Penguin Bryan Trottier
