Former U.S. Olympian and ex-New York Ranger Mark Pavelich was found dead Thursday in a Minnesota mental treatment center in Minnesota, according to a report in the Minneapolis Star Tribune.
Pavelich, 63, not only starred on the ‘Miracle on Ice’ team that won Olympic Gold at Lake Placid in 1980, but was also a star center on the ‘Smurf’ Rangers of the early 1980s.
