Quick Facts
Biography
Christian Soucy (born September 14, 1970) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey goaltender. He appeared in three minutes of one National Hockey League game with the Chicago Blackhawks in the 1993–94 season. Soucy did not face a shot during that brief appearance. This effectively renders Soucy as the NHL's comparable version to Major League Baseball's legendary Moonlight Graham. Soucy's record was surpassed by Jorge Alves on December 31, 2016, who played 7.6 seconds in his only NHL game.
Born in Gatineau, Quebec, Soucy joined the Blackhawks after two years playing for the University of Vermont men's hockey team where he ranks fifth all-time in save percentage (.908) and fifth all-time in goals against average (2.99).
Throughout his 10-year career, Soucy played in various minor leagues, including the International Hockey League, American Hockey League, East Coast Hockey League, and Central Hockey League, among others.
