Cam Ward
Cam Ward was born on February 29, 1984, in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan — a leap-year birthdate that he shares with very few professional athletes. Selected 25th overall by the Carolina Hurricanes in the first round of the 2002 NHL Draft, the left-catching netminder went on to play 701 NHL regular-season games, recording 334 wins, 256 losses, and 88 overtime losses, with a career goals-against average of 2.74, a save percentage of .908, and 27 shutouts.
Standing 6'1" and weighing 194 pounds, Ward built the bulk of his professional career with the Hurricanes organization. InGoal Magazine has not published articles specifically profiling Ward in its archive.
