Christian Soucy (born September 14, 1970) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey goaltender. He appeared in one National Hockey League game with the Chicago Blackhawks in the 1993–94 season. The rest of his career, which lasted from 1993 to 2003, was spent in the minor leagues.

Early life

[edit]

Soucy was born in Gatineau, Quebec. As a youth, he played in the 1983 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with a minor ice hockey team from Gatineau.[1]

Career

[edit]

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).[citation needed] He played less than four minutes of one National Hockey League game with the Chicago Blackhawks in the 1993–94 season, on March 31, 1994, against the Washington Capitals. Soucy did not face a shot during that brief appearance. Soucy's record was surpassed by Jorge Alves on December 31, 2016, who played 7.6 seconds in his only NHL game.[citation needed]

Throughout his 10-year career, Soucy played in various minor leagues, including the International Hockey League, American Hockey League, ECHL, and Central Hockey League, among others.[citation needed]
