Neil Hawryliw

Neil A. Hawryliw (November 9, 1955 – October 3, 2021) was a Canadian professional ice hockey right winger who played in one National Hockey League game for the New York Islanders during the 1981–82 NHL season.

Hawryliw signed with the Islanders in 1978 but, because the Islanders of the time were deep in talent, Hawryliw was largely confined to the Central Professional Hockey League and the International Hockey League.

After retiring from hockey, Hawryliw was director of the L.C. Walker Arena in Muskegon, Michigan. He married Joni Miller in 1982 and had one son, Nigel. Hawryliw died on October 3, 2021, in Norton Shores, Michigan.
