SHORT BIO: Born on June 11, 1980 in Budapest, Hungary, Levente Szuper was drafted 116th overall by the Calgary Flames in 2000. Despite experience in a Dallas Stars training camp prior to being drafted, Szuper turned pro in 2000-01 and his career lasted until 2012-13, seeing him play throughout Europe, the CHL, ECHL, AHL, and very nearly the NHL. Despite never getting into NHL action, Szuper was the dressed backup for the Calgary Flames in 8 games from November 5th to December 3rd, 2002, effectively making him the first ever (and thus far, only) Hungarian born and raised player to ever be on an active NHL roster. His NHL experience took place exclusively in 2002-03.
Among his career accolades include winning the Memorial Cup (1999), winning the AHL Calder Cup (2001), and representing Team Hungary in many IIHF tournaments. |
