Robert H. Halkidis (born March 5, 1966 in Toronto, Ontario) is a retired former professional ice hockey player. After a junior hockey career with the London Knights in which he won the Max Kaminsky Trophy as outstanding defenceman in 1984–85, Halkidis joined the Buffalo Sabres. During his career he also played for the Los Angeles Kings, Toronto Maple Leafs, Detroit Red Wings, Tampa Bay Lightning, New York Islanders and HIFK. In 1998 Halkidis won the Finnish championship with HIFK and was very popular among fans due to his rough and uncompromising style of play.
