Hillary Pattenden

Her grandfather, Bob Barlow, was the captain of the Vancouver Canucks of the Western Hockey League during the 1968–69 seasons and played 77 games in the NHL with the Minnesota North Stars in the 1969–70 and 1970–71 seasons, accumulating 33 points.

Hillary Pattenden (born December 27, 1990) is a Canadian former ice hockey goaltender who played with the Mercyhurst Lakers women's ice hockey program from 2008 to 2012.

Pattenden was selected to the Team Canada U18 squad in 2007 and played in the first-ever game in the history of the Canadian national women’s under-18 program on August 23, 2007, in Ottawa, Ontario.

In two games versus the United States U18, she logged 29 minutes of play.

Her mother, Wendy Barlow-Pattenden, was an All-American tennis player at Brigham Young University and played six years professionally.

Her uncle Hugh Barlow was a Memorial Cup champion with St. Catharines of the OHL.

She held the NCAA Division I goaltender all-time most career wins title for 415 days, beginning on December 14, 2011, when she broke Jessie Vetter’s record of 91 wins until her own 100-win record was broken by Minnesota‘s Noora Räty on February 1, 2013 (Räty‘s 114 career win record was later broken by BC‘s Kaitie Burton on January 27, 2018 ).

She was the first goaltender ever selected with the first overall pick in the CWHL, selected by the Calgary Inferno in the 2012 CWHL Draft, though she never played in the league and did not opt to pursue playing hockey in her post-collegiate career.

Prior to joining Mercyhurst, she played for the Pacific Steelers in British Columbia.
