Career
Berry had a sporting perspective in both ice hockey and American football in his youth . He is one of the last players who were active in both sports in the professional field. From the Peterborough Petes in the OHA , he moved to Sir George Williams College. During this time he played football for the Montreal Rifles.
His transfer rights for the National Hockey League were with the Montréal Canadiens and here he tried to become a professional ice hockey player at the age of 25 in the 1968/69 season . In the heavily occupied Canadiens he came only two appearances and played mostly in the American Hockey League with the Cleveland Barons . After another year in the AHL with the Montreal Voyageurs , the Canadiens sold him to the Los Angeles Kings . In a row with Juha Widing and Mike Byers , he was the Kings' second best scorer in his rookie season . After the following season went a little worse, four years followed in which he scored over 20 goals each time. He was not only convincing on the offensive, but also did valuable work in the defensive area. After the 1976/77 season, he no longer fit into the concept of the Kings. He played another year in the AHL with the Springfield Indians before ending his active career.
As head coach, he returned to the Los Angeles Kings for the 1978/79 season . He was behind the Kings gang for three years, after which he moved to the Montréal Canadiens. After he was eliminated with the successful Canadiens twice in a row in the first playoff round and his third season did not go according to the expectations of those responsible, he was replaced by Jacques Lemaire in February 1984 . He soon had a new job. The Pittsburgh Penguins hired him for from the 1984/85 season . With Mario Lemieux , a young star was new in the squad. Again Berry was three years in office, after he could not reach the playoffs in any season, the next change followed.
His next stop was the St. Louis Blues . Here he worked as an assistant trainer and assistant to the general manager. During the 1992/93 season he took over the position of head coach. After a year and a half, he gave up this position. He stayed in St. Louis until 1997, before joining the San Jose Sharks as an assistant coach.
Today Berry is a scout for the Los Angeles Kings .
