Some good quotes...Jacques Plante was especially nutty. :)
"Playing goal is like being shot at." - Jacques Plante
"How would you like a job where, every time you make a mistake, a big red light goes off and 18,000 people boo?" - Jacques Plante Maybe someone should look into this!)
"There are a lot of very good goalies, there are even a fair number of great goalies. But there aren't many important goalies. And Jacques Plante was an important goalie" - Ken Dryden
"Goaltenders are three sandwiches shy of a picnic. From the moment primitive man lurched erect, he survived on the principle that when something hard and potentially lethal comes toward you at great velocity, get the hell out of its path." - sports journalist Jim Taylor
"I'm not dumb enough to be a goalie." - Brett Hull
"I just made up my mind that I was going to lose my teeth and have my face cut to pieces." - Johnny Bower, on why he became a goaltender
