The Winnipeg ICE, in conjunction with the Canadian Hockey League, congratulate goaltender Daniel Hauser on setting a new CHL record for games started in a career without a regulation loss.
Dating back to his WHL debut March 15, 2021 versus the Swift Current Broncos, Hauser went 20-0-2 before suffering his first regulation loss this past Saturday in Saskatoon.
"When he joined our team last season, you could tell Daniel was a focused goaltender who wants to make himself better everyday" said Head Coach James Patrick. "His work ethic is second to none at this level and I am very proud of him and his teammates to share in this accomplishment".
Scott Olson of the Brandon Wheat Kings previously held the WHL record at 15-0-3 through the 1977-79 seasons.
The Ontario Hockey League record is currently held by Alex Nedeljkovic who won 11 consecutive games to open the 2012-13 season with the Plymouth Whalers.
In 1973, Maurice Barrette of the Quebec Remparts won his opening 19 games, a mark that still stands in the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League.
Through 16 games with the ICE this season, Hauser sports a 13-1-1 record, 2.18 goals against average, .913 save percentage and three shutouts.
The 18 year old from Chestermere, Alberta is currently one of 15 players on the ICE roster eligible for the 2022 NHL Draft led by forwards Matthew Savoie and Conor Geekie.
The ICE return to action Friday night in Moose Jaw against the Warriors (6:30 on CFRW 1290).
