Female Canadian goalie debuts in men’s league

THE goalie for Canada’s gold medalist women’s Olympic hockey team made her debut in the men’s Southern Professional Hockey League.

Shannon Szabados had 27 saves, although her Columbus Cottonmouths lost 3-4 to the Knoxville Ice Bears on Saturday. The 27-year-old goaltender joined the team last week. This was her first game since the Olympic women’s final on February 20. She did, however, practice with the NHL’s Edmonton Oilers on March 5 when they were short a backup goaltender. No woman has played in an NHL regular-season game.
