In 2011, TIM THOMAS put on one of the greatest Stanley Cup goaltending performances in NHL history! He led the Boston Bruins to their 6th Stanley Cup setting the NHL record for most saves during the Stanley Cup playoffs, winning the Conn Smyth Trophy as the 'Most Valuable Player' of the 2011 Stanley Cup in the process. Thomas became the oldest player to win this award. Tim's hockey career to develop into one of the game's greatest goalies is one of perseverance and courage. He did not become a starting NHL Goaltender for the Bruins until he was 31 years old but then went on to play in 4 NHL All Star games, won two Vezina Trophies as the NHL's most outstanding Goaltender and of course, his Stanley Cup and Conn Smyth Trophies in 2011. His playing days came to a close after suffering a life altering concussion and sustaining brain damage that went undiagnosed until after his career ended. As he did as a player, Tim has shown great courage and fortitude in his life after hockey in moving forward with the challenges and effects of this injury. Now living a quiet, peaceful life in Vermont, he does not speak often publicly about his playing days or about his life after hockey, so we are very happy to be able to share his incredible story & memories with you today. (including a great story of his encounter with Alex Ovechkin at the NHL All Star Game) Tim Thomas was a brave, courageous hockey player, and he remains a brave and courageous human being - Enjoy our conversation...!
