Shayne Angelo Toporowski (born August 6, 1975) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey right winger and current college coach. He was drafted into the National Hockey League (NHL) in the second round, 42nd overall, by the Los Angeles Kings in the 1993 draft.[1] He played 3 games in the NHL with the Toronto Maple Leafs during the 1996–97 season, with the rest of his career spent in Europe.

Playing career

[edit]

Toporowski was born in Paddockwood, Saskatchewan. After being drafted, Toporowski continued to play junior hockey for the Prince Albert Raiders of the Western Hockey League (WHL). In October 1994, the Kings traded him, Guy Leveque, Dixon Ward, and Kelly Fairchild to the Toronto Maple Leafs in exchange for Eric Lacroix, Chris Snell, and a fourth-round pick in the 1996 draft. The following two seasons, Toporowski played for the Maple Leafs' minor league affiliate, the St. John's Maple Leafs of the American Hockey League (AHL). In the 1996–97 season, Toronto called him up for three NHL games.[2]

The following off-season, he signed a two-year contract with the St. Louis Blues and played for their AHL affiliate, the Worcester IceCats. The year following, he signed a one-year contract with the Phoenix Coyotes and played for their AHL affiliate, the Springfield Falcons.[2]

From 2000 to 2012, he played in various European leagues.[2] He then played his last season of professional hockey with the Quad City Mallards of the Central Hockey League (CHL).[3]

Post-playing career

[edit]

After retiring, Toporowski served as an assistant coach of the Division I Holy Cross Crusaders in the Atlantic Hockey Association for the 2013–14 season. In 2014 he became head coach of the Division III Worcester State Lancers of the Massachusetts State Collegiate Athletic Conference.[4]
