Michael Edward Roger Minard (born November 1, 1976) is a Canadian former professional ice hockey goaltender who played in one National Hockey League game for the Edmonton Oilers during the 1999–00 season.

Playing career

[edit]

Minard played with the Chilliwack Chiefs in the British Columbia Junior Hockey League (BCJHL) in the 1994–95 season, earning Coastal Rookie of the Year and Goaltender of the Year honours before he was selected in the fourth round, 83rd overall, by the Edmonton Oilers in the 1995 NHL Entry Draft. Most of his career was spent in the American Hockey League, and his lone NHL game came on April 8, 2000 against the Calgary Flames. Minard also played two seasons with the Belfast Giants of the British Elite Ice Hockey League, before returning to the North American minor leagues for a final season, and retiring in 2008.

Personal

[edit]

Minard previously served on the coaching staff for the AHL's Portland Pirates. He was terminated from the position after he was arrested and charged for sexual misconduct after it was revealed he and a 13-year-old girl engaged in lewd text messages.[1] On August 29, 2014, Minard was sentenced to two months in prison after pleading no contest to sexual misconduct charges.[2]
