I was browsing Hockey-Reference.com today, and I thought to myself, what's the longest amount of time anyone's played in goal? As the fine folks at hockey-reference.com keep track of playing time in minutes, I'd figure I'd just look it up. Unfortunately, they didn't have a page set up with that information already, so I looked at who had played the most time and then add it up myself. I included regular season and playoff minutes, so let's take a look:
Name | Season | Playoffs | Total time played |
Patrick Roy | 60,235 | 15,209 | 52 days, 9 hours, 24 minutes |
Martin Brodeur: | 57 208 | 10 522 | 47 days, 50 minutes |
Ed Belfour | 55 695 | 9 945 | 45 days, 14 hours |
Terry Sawchuck | 57 194 | 6 290 | 44 days, 2 hours, 4 minutes |
Curtis Joseph | 53 213 | 8 106 | 42 days, 13 hours, 59 minutes |
So there you have it, folks: Patrick Roy is the longest-playing Goalie in the NHL, ever. Also, HR doesn't sort by minutes played.
Also, the draft is happening this weekend...Neither the Bruins or Wild had very good picks (I care a lot about that division title now...vomit.) I didn't watch it last night, and I'll be reading other blog's coverage, but the whole thing doesn't have me refreshing NHL.com every minute for updates. Besides, Netherlands plays Russia at 2:45!
