Infos about the tournamentGary Max Millman
August 8, 1937 – May 19, 2025
Zeller ice hockey mourns the loss of Gary Millman, who played goal for EK Zell during the 1965/66 and 1966/67 seasons as a draftee of the Montreal Canadians.
He passed away on May 19 at the age of 87.
Gary never severed his connection to Zell and was always the driving force behind the Kitchener Rangers' frequent participation in the Oldies tournaments in Zell.
We will be thinking of you...
Our condolences go out to the family, especially to his wife Margaux.
RIP, the Zell Oldies
