Sam St. Laurent Biography

Sam St. Laurent is one of the most popular and richest Ice Hockey Player who was born on February 16, 1959 in Arvida, Quebec, Canada. Sam St. Laurent (born on 16 February 1959) is a Canadian retired goalie of ice hockey who has participated in the National Hockey League as well as the Canadian national team for men’s hockey. St. Laurent serves the distinction of being the first NHL goalie to wear a mask for goalie constructed entirely of fiberglass [1][22.

The Detroit Red Wings would go further to purchase St. Laurent from New Jersey in exchange for Steve Richmond on 18 August 1986. St. Laurent enjoyed a specific level of success as their Minor League affiliate Adirondack Red Wings of the AHL which won the Calder Cup with them during the 1988-89 season in addition to winning the Jack A. Butterfield Trophy for the best player during the Calder Cup playoffs that same year. From 1986-87 to the 1989-90 season St. Laurent would post an overall record of 5-11-4 with a 3.42 GAA and a .887 save percentage in his 30 regular season games with his team, the Detroit Red Wings. St. Laurent would be a part of an playoff game on April 14th, 1988, and suffered an injury after conceding a goal during what would eventually turn into five-three Red Wings victory over the Toronto Maple Leafs (Greg Stefan took over with St. Laurent’s position.)

With the emergence of Tim Cheveldae from the Red Wings’ depth chart, St. Laurent was traded to the New York Rangers for cash on 26 June 1990. For the 1990–91 season, St. Laurent would spend his time with the Binghamton Rangers of the AHL. During the 1991–92 season, his last as a professional, he appeared in one game for the Binghamton Rangers, and was the third-string goaltender for the silver medal winning Canadian National Team at the 1992 Winter Olympics, during which time he switched from his mask made entirely of fiberglass to a modern-era goaltender’s mask [3].

St. Laurent went on to become a goaltender coach/consultant for the Rangers organization from 1993–2004, helping the organization develop such goalies as Mike Richter, Henrik Lundqvist, and Dan Cloutier. Jason Labarbera, who began his career as a member of the Rangers organization, credits St. Laurent for his development in the Rangers organization despite the presence of highly regarded goaltender coach Benoit Allaire[4]. He was also a consultant for the Sinupret Ice Tigers of the German Deutsche Eishockey Liga for the 2005–06 season.

The Flyers exchanged St. Laurent to the New Jersey Devils on 27 September 1984 to secure future considerations. The 1984-85 season was the last time St. Laurent was at the Mariners of the AHL.
