abstract
  • John "Rambo" Kordic (March 22, 1965 – August 8, 1992) was a player in the National Hockey League. He played for the Montreal Canadiens, Toronto Maple Leafs, Washington Capitals, and Quebec Nordiques. He spent 7 seasons in the league and earned a reputation as being an enforcer, amassing nearly 1000 penalty minutes in 244 games. He won the Calder Cup with Sherbrooke Canadiens in 1985, and a Stanley Cup with Montreal Canadiens in 1986. While on the Toronto Maple Leafs, he wore #27, formerly worn by Leaf greats Darryl Sittler and Frank Mahovlich. On August 8, 1992, several police officers were called in to restrain Kordic, who was trashing a room at the Motel Maxim in Ancienne Lorette, Quebec. Following a struggle with police, Kordic was taken to hospital in an ambulance, where he lost consciousness and subsequently died of heart failure and a collapsed lung. A coroner's inquest later determined that Kordic had 0.1 milligrams of cocaine in his system. At his time of death, Kordic was only 27 years old. John's brother Dan Kordic, who was also primarily known as an enforcer, spent the 1990s in the Philadelphia Flyers organization.
