1985

Álvaro Silva Montoya (born February 13, 1985) is an American former professional ice hockey goaltender.

He played for parts of nine seasons in the National Hockey League (NHL) as a member of the Arizona Coyotes, New York Islanders, Winnipeg Jets, Florida Panthers, Montreal Canadiens, and Edmonton Oilers.

1999

As a youth, Montoya played in the 1999 Quebec International Pee-Wee Hockey Tournament with the Chicago Young Americans minor ice hockey team.

He later played for the Loyola Academy, and the Texas Tornado of the North American Hockey League (NAHL).

2000

Montoya spent the 2000–01 season with the U.S. National Team Development Program.

2002

Montoya began attending the University of Michigan and playing for the Wolverines ice hockey team in 2002–03.

2004

He was drafted by the New York Rangers in the first round, sixth overall, in the 2004 NHL Entry Draft after a three-year career with the University of Michigan.

Montoya is the first Cuban-American to play in the NHL.

Montoya was born in Chicago, Illinois, but grew up in nearby Glenview, Illinois.

He enjoyed success at Michigan, especially during his final season in 2004–05, where he posted a record of 30–7–3.

Montoya twice represented the United States at the World Junior Ice Hockey Championships, backstopping the team to its first gold medal at the 2004 tournament in Finland; he was named to the tournament All-Star team.

2005

The 2005 tournament, hosted by the United States, was a disappointing one for Montoya and the U.S., as they failed to earn a medal, losing to the Czech Republic in the bronze medal game.

After being signed by the New York Rangers to a three-year entry-level contract in the summer of 2005, Montoya made his professional debut with the Hartford Wolf Pack of the American Hockey League (AHL), the team with which he spent the majority of the next three seasons.

Overall, he posted a 66–34–4 record with the Wolf Pack, along with a 5–5 playoff record.

With the emergence of Henrik Lundqvist as an All-Star caliber goaltender, Montoya became expendable to the Rangers.

2008

On February 26, 2008, Montoya was traded to the Phoenix Coyotes, along with Marcel Hossa, in exchange for Fredrik Sjöström, David LeNeveu and Josh Gratton.

After re-signing with the Coyotes on July 2, 2008, Montoya started the 2008–09 season with the San Antonio Rampage, the Coyotes' AHL affiliate.

He went on to appear in five games for the Coyotes in 2008–09, posting a 3–1 record.

2009

Later that season, on April 1, 2009, Montoya made his NHL debut with the Coyotes, recording a shutout in a 3–0 victory over the Colorado Avalanche.

That spring, Montoya was named to the American roster for the 2009 IIHF World Championship in Switzerland.

He started one game at the tournament, a 6–2 win over France.

2011

On February 9, 2011, Montoya was traded to the New York Islanders in exchange for a sixth-round draft pick in 2011.

With Islanders' goaltenders Rick DiPietro and Kevin Poulin sidelined with injuries, Montoya was provided with an opportunity to play regularly in the NHL for the first time.

He went on to play 21 games for the Islanders, posting a 9–5–5 record with a .921 save percentage and one shutout.

On March 29, the Islanders re-signed Montoya to a one-year contract extension.

Montoya recorded a 9–11–5 record during the 2011–12 season.

Montoya again represented the United States at the 2011 World Championship.

He appeared in four games and posted a 2–1 record as the Americans finished a disappointing eighth overall.

2012
