Pierre Guité (born April 17, 1952) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey player who played 377 games in the World Hockey Association. He played for the Quebec Nordiques, Michigan Stags, Baltimore Blades, Cincinnati Stingers and Edmonton Oilers.[1] He was traded from the Nordiques to the financially troubled Stags, along with Michel Rouleau and Alain Caron, for Marc Tardif (who became the all-time leading goal scorer in the WHA), just weeks before the Stags folded and the league took over the team, moving it to Baltimore.
