Robert Price "Stubby" Rowe (August 19, 1885 – September 21, 1948) was a Canadian professional ice hockey player who played 257 games in the Pacific Coast Hockey Association, 25 games in the National Hockey Association, and four games in the National Hockey League. He played for the Renfrew Millionaires, Victoria Aristocrats, Seattle Metropolitans, and Boston Bruins.

Rowe played as a forward at the onset of his hockey career, predominantly as a right wing, but would later transition to defence where he spent the bulk of his career.

Rowe won the Stanley Cup in 1917 with the Seattle Metropolitans,[1] the first time a team from the United States had won the coveted prize.

After his hockey career, Rowe worked with promoting midget auto racing in the Northwest United States.[2]

Death

He died in Portland, Oregon in 1948, aged 63.
