The last time a Canadiens rookie goalie recorded a shutout in NHL debut
Permalink Closed


Wayne Thomas, back in 1973, was the last Canadiens rookie goalie to score a shutout in his NHL debut.  A 3-0 win over the Vancouver Canucks back on Jan 14, 1973.


I picked this up from Montreal's Team990's Habs' post-game show http://www.team990.com

In the 80's I recall Quebec Nordiques goalie Mario Gosselin also recorded a shutout in his NHL debut.  But that was in 1984.  There have been other(s) since but don't know.

 That's an interesting piece of info. Mario. I hope this bodes well for his future! I personally thought he was steady and didn't over react or challenge too aggresively. I good start for Danis!

From the replays I saw, Danis looked so relaxed.  We got ourselves a goalie controversey brewing, eh?  Imagine what a Theo or Danis trade could get us!!
