John Arthur Sleaver (August 18, 1934 in Copper Cliff, Ontario - November 19, 2001) was a professional ice hockey player who played 13 games in the National Hockey League. He played with the Chicago Black Hawks.
While playing for the EPHL Sudbury Wolves, Sleaver was involved in an incident with a spectator in Trois-Rivières, Quebec on December 27, 1959. He was alleged to have swung his stick at fan Michel Beauchamp, who was hit on the wrist. A warrant was issued for Sleaver's arrest. Four policemen were sent to the Wolves' dressing room after the game, but Sleaver had already changed and left. Provincial police stopped the Wolves' team bus on its way back to Sudbury, but Sleaver was not found aboard.[1]
