Mark Joseph Suzor (born November 5, 1956) is a retired Canadian professional ice hockey athlete.

Playing career

Hailing from Windsor, Ontario, Suzor competed in junior hockey with the Kingston Canadians of the Ontario Hockey Association (OHA) between 1973 and 1976. Over 186 games, he amassed 119 points, including 36 goals and 83 assists, and added 16 points during 15 playoff contests. In the 1976 NHL Entry Draft, he was selected 17th overall by the Philadelphia Flyers, while the San Diego Mariners picked him 25th overall in the 1976 WHA Amateur Draft. Suzor opted to sign with Philadelphia to embark on his NHL journey.

During the 1976–77 season, he primarily played for the Springfield Indians in the American Hockey League (AHL), tallying 49 points across 74 games. Additionally, he appeared in four games for the Flyers, registering one assist. Subsequently, Suzor was traded to the Colorado Rockies in exchange for Barry Dean and contributed 19 points over 60 NHL games in the 1977–78 campaign. Later on, he was involved in a trade to the Boston Bruins for Clayton Pachal.

In the 1978–79 season, Suzor suited up for four different teams spanning both the International Hockey League (IHL) and AHL: Saginaw Gears (24 points in 29 matches), Grand Rapids Owls (2 assists in two appearances), Muskegon Mohawks (6 points over 16 games), and Rochester Americans (10 points from 24 contests). The following year, he enjoyed his most productive professional season with the Grand Rapids Owls by scoring 53 points in 58 games, while also making a brief stint with the Binghamton Dusters. His career concluded in the 1980–81 season with the Toledo Goaldiggers, where he recorded three points in eight games before retiring.
