Joseph Jean Louis Normand Baron (born December 15, 1957) is a retired professional ice hockey player who spent time with the Montreal Canadiens and St.
Louis Blues of the NHL.
He was also, for a time, a professional bodybuilder.
Born in Verdun, Quebec, Baron had played junior hockey with the Montreal Jr.
Canadiens in 1976–77 and then quit to pursue a career in bodybuilding.
In 1983, he made a comeback, and the Canadiens signed him to a contract.
He was later acquired by the St.
Louis Blues, in exchange for cash, but only played in 23 games before being sent to the minors.
