Chicago Blackhawks Top 100-#37 Jocelyn Thibault
Today’s entrant in the Chicago Blackhawks top 100 list was the team’s leading goaltender during some trying times
Corey Crawford has become the gold standard for Chicago Blackhawks goalies going forward. Crawford was preceeded by Tony Esposito. While there were many Blackhawks goalies in between the two, one goalie stood out to me as kid. He was my favorite player growing up. That was the team’s goalie in the late 1990s and early 2000s, Jocelyn Thibault.
Thibault was drafted by the Quebec Nordiques 10th overall in 1993. After the Nordiques moved to Colorado, he was traded to the Montreal Canadiens because the Avalanche acquired Patrick Roy.
