Robert "Bob" Victor Berry (born November 29, 1943, in Montreal, Quebec) is a retired Canadian professional player in the National Hockey League. He has also served as head coach in the NHL with several teams.
Berry was the property of the Montreal Canadiens and played junior hockey with the Verdun Maple Leafs and briefly with the Peterborough Petes (both in 1963-64). After that Berry played for three seasons with Sir George Williams University, one season for the Canadian National Team in 1966-67, and one season for the senior Hull Festivals (1967–68).
In 1968-69 Berry turned pro but could not crack the deep Montreal lineup. In 1970 he was traded to the Los Angeles Kings.
Berry spent the next 7 seasons with the Los Angeles Kings, finishing his NHL career with 350 points in 541 games.
Berry is probably best remembered at the NHL level as a coach. He served as head coach of the Los Angeles Kings, Montreal Canadiens, Pittsburgh Penguins, and St. Louis Blues, and as associate/assistant coach with San Jose Sharks, and the Blues.
Berry is currently a pro scout for the NHL's Los Angeles Kings, and has also served as a pro scout for the Ottawa Senators and St. Louis Blues.
