Pokey Reddick

Pokey Reddick (born Eldon Wade Reddick on October 6, 1964) is a retired professional ice hockey goaltender in the National Hockey League (NHL) from 1986 to 1994.

Pokey received his nickname from his father due to his "slowpoke" movement throughout the house.

He won the Stanley Cup with the Edmonton Oilers in 1990.

Playing Career
Pokey spent most of his career in various minor leagues playing for various teams. His NHL-level experience included playing for the Winnipeg Jets, Edmonton Oilers and the Florida Panthers.

He won a Stanley Cup Championship with the Oilers in 1990 as the backup goaltender to Bill Ranford, because of a season ending injury to the Oilers regular goaltender Grant Fuhr.

During his tenure with the Winnipeg Jets, he formed one half of the goaltending duo "Pokey and the Bandit" with Daniel Berthiaume.

Pokey holds the NHL record for most games played by a goaltender without recording a shutout. He played in 132 NHL games over his career without recording a single shutout.

Pokey also holds the distinction of being the only goaltender at any level of professional hockey to go through a three-round playoff system undefeated. He achieved this feat with the Fort Wayne Komets in the IHL in 1992–93.

Pokey had a 1.49 GAA through 12 postseason games, leading the Komets to the franchise's first title in 20 years.

Post-Playing Career
Pokey was formerly an assistant coach for the Tri-City Storm of the USHL and is currently the Hockey Director for the Las Vegas Storm AAA Hockey Club.
