UFA[edit]

If Manny Legace is a UFA, does that mean he will have to sign with another team by the start of the 2006-07 season?Ohyeh 20:39, 7 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

If he wants to play, sure. If what you mean is whether he has to sign by a certain date or he can't play next year at all, no; he can sign pretty much any time. Ravenswing 00:52, 8 August 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Shoots: Left?[edit]

I noticed it said he 'shoots left' which is basically just saying hes left handed. Since he holds the stick with his right hand, shouldn't it be Shoots: Right? In NHL 06 if you're a right handed goalie, it says you shoot left. If you're left handed, it says you shoot right. Its just going by what hand the stick is in. Since this is a video game, and I have no idea what is right or wrong, I'm going to leave it as is until someone has a more in-depth input. Izz0Lite 19:08, 26 September 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Key word - "shoots". The side of your body the blade of the stick is on when you shoot the puck (the side you shoot on) is how you determine what way a player (skater or goalie) shoots. There's no debate, numerous sources show Manny shoots left. --Quarte t 03:17, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Numerous goalies would flip the stick over to shoot. I'm just asking if Wikipedia is the same as NHL 06, because I have high ignorance on this topic. When it says Shoots: Left for a goalie, does that imply hes right handed? Izz0Lite 03:21, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

It doesn't matter - the side of your body you shoot the puck on is the side your listed as shooting on. There's no hard and fast rule that links a left or right handed person with the side they shoot on. You can be right handed and shoot right, or shoot left. Many righties shoot left - but that's not always the case. --Quarte t 03:45, 8 October 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Height[edit]

I've seen on the NHLPA website that Legace is 5 feet, 9 inches tall, which this entry agrees with. Blues website says 5'10". And I just heard a sportscaster say he's 5'8". Can anyone verify how tall this guy is, and cite their source?

I'd have to say he's 5'8" or 5'9" tops, I've met him in person and he was small compared to me at 6'5" but still a very nice guy! 76.122.180.185 (talk) 04:12, 25 October 2008 (UTC) Chris S.[reply]

His name is not Fernandez, nor is it Legacé. Somebody has made a hispanic version of his name, having confused him for another NHL goaltender Manny Fernandez (currently a UFA, formerly of the Boston Bruins, Minnesota Wild.)

see discussion http://hfbroads.com/showthread.php?p=392100#post392100

Emmanuel Francis Legace is his proper name I believe but I can't confirm it. I can confirm that what is listed currently is WRONG. Legends of hockey used the incorrect information from Wikipedia in the first place and it would seem the two webpages are circularly validating each other. Tsn.ca would have to be the most reputable hockey news page, and they have him listed as Manny Legace (no middle name included.) http://tsn.ca/nhl/teams/players/bio/?id=571&hubname=nhl NHL.com also has Manny Legace http://www.nhl.com/ice/player.htm?id=8459308#&navid=nhl-search (they are THE official source.) I can't verify what his middle name is, but as of now his name is WRONG. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.225.63.3 (talk) 17:05, 11 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]
