I want to challenge the editor about stating the fact that Michael George Karakas was the league's (NHL) first American-born and -trained goaltender . Karakas played his first match on November 7th 1935.

THE REAL FIRST AMERICAN-BORN AND TRAINED GOALTENDER Alphonse Lacroix,Born October 21, 1897 Newton, Massachusetts, U.S. was in fact the league's (NHL) first American-born and - trained goaltender, as he played for the Montreal Canadiens, replacing George Vezina, after he became ill during the game on November 28th 1925.
