Scott Foster

Scott Foster, born January 17, 1982, in Sarnia, Ontario, occupies a singular place in NHL history: an emergency backup goaltender who appeared in one NHL game without recording a loss, a win, or an overtime decision — and without allowing a goal, finishing with a save percentage of 1.000.

Standing 6'0" and weighing 185 pounds, Foster is a left-catching goaltender whose NHL career statistics fit on a single line: one game played, a goals-against average of 0.00, and a perfect save percentage. The NHL data records his total time on ice as 0:00 in official calculation, a reflection of the extraordinary and brief circumstances under which he appeared.
