Learn More About Mike Vernon:

Mike Vernon was a young goaltender who spent 19 seasons in the NHL playing for the Calgary Flames, Detroit Red Wings, San Hose Sharks and the Florida Panthers. Vernon started his career in the minor Calgary hockey system. After a strong rookie season he was chosen by the Calgary Flames in the 1981 NHL draft.

The Flames left Vernon in junior hockey during the 1981-1982 season and he earned selection to the WHL All-Star team.  In 1982-1983 he spent most of his time with the CHL’s Colorado Flames.  In 1984, he returned to the Calgary Flames but suffered a loss and returned to the CHL.  Vernon won a Stanley Cup with the Flames in 1989.  In 1994 Vernon was traded to the Detroit Red Wings.

Detroit thought that Vernon would help teach their younger goaltender Chris Osgood, and was Detroit’s best goaltender in 1994-1995.  In 1995 Vernon helped Detroit get the President Trophy.  Also in 1995 Detroit got to the Stanley Cup finals but lost to the New Jersey Devils.

Osgood began to get better as the Detroit goaltender and became their primary goalie in 1995-1996.  Vernon and Osgood shared the William M. Jenning Trophy. Detroit traded Vernon to the San Hose Sharks in 1997.  Vernon played two full seasons with the Sharks but was traded in 1999 to the Florida Panthers.  He played 34 games with this team but was soon traded back to the Flames.  He played a few seasons with the Flames and was named one of the best goaltenders in that era.
