Timeline
Jacques Plante was born on January 17, 1929 in Shawinigan Falls, Québec, Canada as Joseph Jacques Plante. He was married to Jacqueline Gagne.
Played for the Montreal Canadians (1952-1963), New York Rangers (1963-1965), St. Louis Blues (1968-1970), Toronto Maple Leafs (1970-1973), Boston Bruins (1973), Quebec Nordiques (WHA) (1973-1974) and Edmonton Oilers (WHA) (1974-1975).
First All-Star Team Goalie (1956, 1959, 1962). Hart Memorial Trophy (1962). Second All-Star Team Goalie (1957, 1958, 1960, 1971). Vezina Trophy (1956, 1957, 1958, 1959, 1960, 1962, 1969).
During a game versus the New York Rangers, Plante was hit in the face by a shot. He went off to the dressing room for stitches and when he returned he was wearing a mask. His coach, Toe Blake was livid, but he had no other goalie to call upon and Plante refused to return to the goal unless he kept the mask. Blake agreed on condition that Plante discard the mask when the cut had healed. In the ensuing days Plante refused, and as his team, the Montreal Canadiens, continued to win, Blake became less obstinate. The Montreal record stretched into an 18-game unbeaten streak with Plante protected and the mask was in the NHL for good. Plante didn't wear the mask, at Blake's request, against Detroit on 8 March 1960. The Canadiens lost 3-0, and the mask returned for good the next night. Plante designed his own mask and masks for other goalies. Hall of Famer Bernie Parent was among those who wore Plante's masks. [November 1959]
Plante played all 70 games in 1961-1962, the last Montreal goaltender to play every game in a season.
In 1962 he was the last goalie to win the Hart Trophy before Dominik Hasek in 1997.
Plante won the starting goalie job with the NHL expansion Oakland Seals in 1967, but became involved in a contract dispute and left the team before the season opener.
Inducted into Canada's Sports Hall of Fame in 1981.
On the day he died, February 27, 1986, every flag in the City of Montreal flew at half staff.
