There is no other goalie in the history of the NHL to do this in a hockey game. Ken Dryden is the only one. What is it ?

    When we used to look for Easter eggs my parents would tell us if we were hot or cold based on our proximity to finding one.

    With the first response we are cold.

    We're still cold. I believe Ron Hextall was the first to do that. Although Billy Smith may have been credited with a goal in the 70s when he was the last one to touch the puck before the Colorado Rockies accidently passed it into their own open net.

    Stop a puck with his teeth?

    Lots of guys have done it - Chris Osgood and Martin Brodeur, to name two.

    There have been lots of brother combinations that have played against each other in the history of the NHL, but Ken Dryden is the only goalie to play in an NHL game, look down the other end of the ice, and see his younger brother in the opposing net. Never have two other brother goalies played against each other in the NHL.

    So Ken is the only goalie in the NHL to ever play against his younger brother in the opposing net.
    So I guess you can say Dave Dryden is the only goalie in NHL history to ever play against his older brother in the opposing net.

    I think they may be the only brother goalie combination to ever be in the NHL, even at different times. Not sure about that 100%, but I believe so. Don't think any other brothers have made it into the NHL as goalies except the Dryden's. Could be wrong though.
