Stewart played in both the World Hockey Association and the National Hockey League. He played with Mark Messier for the Cincinnati Stingers.[1] His last season of top level professional hockey was 1979–80 with the Quebec Nordiques.
After his playing days ended, he had a lengthy career as an NHL referee.
