Andrew David "Bubba" Berenzweig (born August 8, 1977) is an American former professional ice hockey player. He prepped at Loomis Chaffee School and played collegiately at the University of Michigan. He was drafted by the New York Islanders in the 1996 NHL Entry Draft.

Playing career[edit]

Berenzweig was traded by the New York Islanders to the Nashville Predators in exchange for a fourth-round selection in the 1999 NHL Entry Draft.[1] He was later traded to the Dallas Stars, who left him unprotected in the 2003 NHL Waiver Draft. Unselected by any teams, Berenzweig cleared waivers and was assigned to the Stars' minor league affiliate Utah Grizzlies.[2] Berenzweig left the Grizzlies without permission and was suspended by the Stars for violating the terms of his contract.[3]

Berenzweig is Jewish,[4][2] and as of 2014, Berenzweig is working for insurance firm The Hylant Group.[5]
