Chartraw was born in Caracas, Venezuela while his American father was employed there as an engineer.[1] The family moved back to the United States when Rick was three, and he grew up in Erie, Pennsylvania. He learned to play hockey there (he was also a promising golfer) before moving to Canada as a teenager to play junior hockey for the Kitchener Rangers.

Hockey career

Rick started his NHL career with the Montreal Canadiens in 1975. He spent seven seasons in Montreal before being traded to the Los Angeles Kings, and later played for the New York Rangers and Edmonton Oilers. Chartraw won four Stanley Cups with the Habs (1976 to 1979) and one with the Oilers (1984). He only played 24 games, and one playoff game in 1984 for Edmonton, so did not qualify for engravement of his name on the Stanley Cup. Chartraw also played for Team USA in the 1976 Canada Cup.
