Victor John Stasiuk (born May 23, 1929) is a retired Canadian-Ukrainian professional ice hockey left winger and a former NHL head coach. He played for the Chicago Black Hawks, Detroit Red Wings, and Boston Bruins, recording 183 goals and 254 assists in 745 games. Stasiuk won 3 Stanley Cups in 1952, 1954, 1955 with Detroit. In 1954 Stasiuk played more than half the regular season games for Detroit, but played in the minors during the playoffs. So his name was left off the Stanley Cup, even though he qualified to be on it. He was a member of "The Uke line" with Johnny Bucyk and Bronco Horvath while playing for Boston. After retiring, he coached the Philadelphia Flyers, California Golden Seals, and Vancouver Canucks.
