Brian George Hayward (born June 25, 1960 in Georgetown , Ontario ) is a former Canadian ice hockey goalkeeper . During his career, he played for the Winnipeg Jets , Montréal Canadiens , Minnesota North Stars and San Jose Sharks in the National Hockey League .
Career
Hayward first played four years from 1978 to 1982 at Cornell University in the National Collegiate Athletic Association . In his senior year he was appointed to the All-Star Team of the Eastern College Athletic Conference .
For the 1982/83 season , the goalkeeper moved undrafted to the Winnipeg Jets in the NHL, but they initially also used him in their farm team , the Sherbrooke Jets in the American Hockey League . It was not until the 1984/85 season that the Canadian made his breakthrough and secured the post as regular goalkeeper in Winnipeg. With 33 wins this year, he set a franchise record that he shared with Bob Essensa until the franchise moved to Phoenix . In the summer of 1986, Hayward was transferred to the Montreal Canadiens , where he and Patrick Roy formed one of the most successful goalkeeping teams in NHL history for the following four years . Together they won the William M. Jennings Trophy three times in a row between 1987 and 1989 , with which the goalkeeper or goalkeepers with the fewest goals conceded are awarded during the season. In November 1990, Hayward had to leave the Canadiens, as he moved to the Minnesota North Stars in exchange for Jayson More . There he only played until May 1991, before the newly formed San Jose Sharks selected him in the NHL Dispersal Draft . In the two years that Hayward played with the Northern Californians , he came to only 25 missions because he sustained a serious back injury during a game in October 1991 that forced him to suspend large parts of the 1991/92 season . He bridged this time as a co-commentator on TV and radio broadcasts for the Sharks. After a successful comeback, he injured his back again in January 1993, which finally forced him to end his career.
After the end of his career, Hayward worked for two years from 1993 to 1995 under head coach Ron Wilson as an assistant coach at the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim . He also started to work as a sports commentator. Among other things, he analyzed the broadcasts of the NHL games on NBC and CBC , as well as the ice hockey broadcasts of the 2006 Winter Olympics . Hayward is currently on the Anaheim Ducks commentator team .
