Kelly Guard is one of the most popular and richest Ice Hockey Player who was born on June 10, 1983 in Prince Albert, Canada. Kelly Guard (born June 10, 1983) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey goaltender. He last played for HC Pustertal-Val Pusteria in Italy’s Serie A. He helped lead the Kelowna Rockets of the Western Hockey League (WHL) to a Memorial Cup championship in 2004.
After sustaining a groin injury in an October 2008 match, Guard’s contract with Pustertal-Val Pusteria was terminated by mutual consent. Although he said that “the city, the environment and the teammates were outstanding,” Guard was disappointed with the level of play in Serie A and, already contemplating retirement, the injury helped make his decision final. In November 2008 Guard announced his retirement from professional hockey.
The Senators opted not to offer Guard a new contract after the 2006-07 season and the goaltender became a free agent. In November 2007, Guard signed with the China Sharks of Asia League Ice Hockey, though his stint with the team was brief. He had similarly brief stints with the Vienna Capitals of Erste Bank Eishockey Liga and Junost Minsk of the Belarusian Extraleague before signing with Serie A’s HC Pustertal-Val Pusteria.
