Robert Richard "Bobby" Sheehan (born January 11, 1949 in Weymouth, Massachusetts) is a retired National Hockey League center.
Career
A small player by hockey standards, Sheehan made up for his physical deficits by leading the NSJHL minor league with 64 goals his rookie year. He was drafted in the third round, 32nd overall by the Montreal Canadiens and went on to play parts of three seasons in the NHL. He was a reserve on the Canadiens Stanley Cup champion team in 1971 and then joined the lowly California Golden Seals where he quickly became a regular and one of the top forwards for his new club. In 1972 Sheehan joined the New York Raiders of the WHA, who obtained his WHA rights from the New England Whalers. In 1975–76 he returned to the NHL with the Chicago Black Hawks and would transfer between the NHL and AHL until his retirement in 1983. Following 310 NHL games, Sheehan recorded 58 goals and 63 assists for 111 points.
Sheehan represented the United States at the 1981 Ice Hockey World Championship tournament.
