Timeline

1948

Pierre Lacroix (August 3, 1948 – December 13, 2020) was a Canadian ice hockey executive.

1994

He was the president and general manager of the Quebec Nordiques/Colorado Avalanche from 1994 to 2006.

Lacroix became president and general manager of the Quebec Nordiques in 1994, and followed the team to Denver a year later.

1995

After the Nordiques moved to Colorado in 1995, he built teams that won the Stanley Cup twice, in 1996 and 2001.

He was posthumously inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2023 as a builder.

He was known for his astute trades, such as his acquisition of Patrick Roy during the 1995–96 NHL season that led to a Cup that season and his trades for star defensemen Ray Bourque during the 1999–2000 NHL season and Rob Blake during the 2000–01 NHL season that also led to a Stanley Cup in 2001.

2006

On March 8, 2006, a day before the NHL trade deadline, Pierre Lacroix traded goalie David Aebischer for 2002 Hart and Vezina trophy winner José Théodore.

This trade was criticized in the local media at the time because Théodore was having a very bad season and was injured at the time of the trade.

This criticism from media and fans continued at varying degrees throughout Théodore's short tenure with the Avalanche.

On May 12, 2006, Lacroix announced that he would be giving up his general manager duties and focusing solely on a new role as team president.

2008
