About Pat McReavy

Lived 1918 – 2001 (aged 83). Pat McReavy was a Canadian ice hockey player.

Patrick Joseph McReavy (January 16, 1918 – November 13, 2001) was a Canadian professional ice hockey player who played 55 games in the National Hockey League with the Boston Bruins and Detroit Red Wings between 1938 and 1942. The rest of his career, which lasted from 1938 to 1952, was spent in various minor leagues.

In 1939, he played in six regular season games for the Bruins, never appearing in the playoffs, but Boston still engraved his name on the Stanley Cup. He would win the Stanley Cup again with the Bruins in 1941, scoring two goals in the postseason. To date, McReavy is the only Bruin in the team's long history to score two playoff goals while never scoring a regular-season goal for the club. Pat McReavy name was often misspelled Pat McCreavy on team pictures, roster lists, Stanley Cup, hockey books; etc.

As a member of the Sudbury Wolves he played for Canada at the 1938 World Championships, scoring 2 goals and 1 assist in 7 games and winning the gold medal. McReavy was born in Owen Sound, Ontario.
