Like most of the goalies that the Devils had in the 80s, St. Laurent did not see a whole lot of games on the NHL level.
Actually, St. Laurent was a career minor leaguer, having played with the Maine Mariners, the Toledo Golddiggers, the
Adirondack Red Wings, and the Binghamton Rangers.
A couple key notes about him. That one shutout listed there? It's his only career shutout in the NHL. He won 1-0 against the St.
Louis Blues March 27, 1986.
And notice the face mask he's wearing. That's a style that Jacques Plante and Bernie Parent wore back in the day. He is the last
North American professional goalie to wear that kind of mask.
He retired while with the Binghamton Rangers after the 91-92 season.
