Bio

Denis Potvin Booking Agent Details

Dennis Potvin played in the National Hockey League (NHL) for 15 seasons from 1973-1988 for the New York Islanders, where he served as captain for eight seasons and won four Stanley Cups. Considered one of the top defensemen in league history, Potvin three times won the Norris Trophy as the NHL’s best defender. He became the first player at his position to score 1,000 points in a career and retired ranked first all-time in the NHL among defensemen in goals (310), assists (742) and points (1,052). One of the longest tenured players in Islanders history, Potvin, along with Bryan Trottier, is one of just two players to play 1,000 games for New York.

In 1991, Potvin was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame. He is also a member of the Ottawa Sports Hall of Fame and Nassau County Sports Hall of Fame. In 1998, Potvin was named by The Hockey News on its list of the 100 Greatest Hockey Players of all-time. Born on October 29, 1953 in Ottawa, Ontario, Potvin was drafted by the Islanders with the first overall pick in the 1973 NHL Draft after playing junior hockey for the Ottawa 67’s. He made his debut in the NHL in 1973 and was honored as rookie of the year by winning the Calder Memorial Trophy for the 1973-1974 season. After his playing career ended, Potvin moved to the broadcast booth, working in-studio for SportsChannel America from 1988-1992 and later as an analyst for Florida Panthers and Ottawa Senators television games.
