What the article fails to mention is that Ron dated and was photographed with some of the hottest , best known ladies of that era during his Ranger/ New York career. He was considered really attractive to the ladies.
I remember being about 8 or 9 in the early 1980s and my dad took me to one of my first hockey games -- and it was against the Rangers.
What I remember most about that game was thinking Ron Duguay looked as cool as fuck running along the ice (yes, running, he didn't skate) with that massive mop of hair flying behind him.
RIP.

He sure did! I think Duguay went through more cunts than the turnstiles at the Montreal Forum.
He was married to a supermodel if I recall - Carol Alt?
LOTS of girls in high school had that dude's picture in their lockers... hockey fans or not!
Have some old OPeeChee hockey cards with his famous hair. It was sin to cover that hair with a helmet. RiP.

Alt was married to Ron Greschner for a few years and then was with Alexei Yashin...

I remember watching Steve Yzerman being interviewed between periods on Hockey Night In Canada.
Duguay was playing Detroit at the time..Brian McFarlane asking Yzerman about playing with Duguay.
Yzerman said he can really teach you how to score..LOL..McFarlane blushed and moved on fast to the next question.
He played on some talented Ranger teams but they were more interested in hitting the nightlife in the big apple than playing hockey.
I don't remember anyone saying a disparaging word about him...Rest easy.

Duguay started his career by playing six seasons with the Rangers. However his best years were with Detroit in the mid 1980's. He posted a season with 89 points. All told he had 620 career points in the NHL. A very recognizable player during his playing days he also spend a few years in broadcasting with the MSG network. He married model Kim Alexis and had a kid with her back in the mid 1990's. I have a few of his hockey cards I may pull one out and toast to him. Dude had a great life, albeit cut short at the age of 69. Damn cancer. RIP Ron.
I still have his rookie card I got in a pack when I was kid. The interesting thing about it was they took the photo after his NHL rookie initiation. That involved shaving his head. For some guys not a big deal, but for Duguay it made a big difference. RIP.
I have this card in my collection as well. I figured he got hazed as a rookie. If you have this card in near mint condition it will fetch you about $10-$11.I still have his rookie card I got in a pack when I was kid.
