Highly touted prospect who never became a top goalie. Was average at best with a few nice moments, but as a starter he was mostly a below avg guy. Just never bad enough to not be in the league. Played on some fading Habs teams. Then was a bad Hawks era starter…but for a dead puck era goalie his save percentage was not very good. He wasnt exactly dragging a bad team up a few rungs with amazing goaltending
Anyway, nothing against him. Always used to call him Thigh-Bolt. Just like I would call Vincent Damphousse « Damp House »
fwiw this photo was taken at Maple Leaf Gardens. You can tell

Awesome guy!
My second favourite goalie of all time.
I’ll let you guess why
backup to Stephane Fiset (opening night starter) who were the Avalanche goalie tandem for their first season in Colorado October 6th, 1995
Thibault went to the Habs as part of the Roy/Keane trade early December….tough skates to fill for sure.
I called him ‘T-Bone’ when I was really little lol
Great guy on and off the ice…
Played in an alumni tournament in Sherbrooke….
Went to a pre tournament dinner, where Thibault was to speak, and have a good time….
10-15 Exports later, and Thibault registered to play in the tournament….
He played Centre, and was the tournaments leading scorer….
At the post tournament dinner, he talked a wild amount of trash… god love’m for it

You cant replace Roy, but this guy was pretty good
Had a huge poster of him growing up. We all hoped he would replace Roy, didn’t pan out so well did it.

KOHO gear from back then is just iconic
Made me think of the McDonald’s mini masks …

Part of the Lindos trade tree.
