MIKE KEANE’S PHYSICAL GAME AND LEADERSHIP PLAYED KEY ROLE IN THE CANADIENS’ 1993 STANLEY CUP CHAMPIONSHIP.
The NHL Entry Draft is hardly an exact science, as Mike Keane’s case proves. Passed over completely in consecutive draft years, Keane always gave his body and soul to his team. Despite the fact that his name rarely made it onto the scoresheet, his determined work ethic, particularly along the boards and in crucial situations, made him a player in demand.During his first season with the Habs in 1988-89, he drew attention for his physical play while contributing 16 goals. Keane added four more goals in the playoffs to help the Canadiens reach the Stanley Cup Finals, where they fell to the Calgary Flames.
He enjoyed the best year of his career in 1992-93 with 60 points, including 15 goals, adding 15 points in 19 playoff games to win the first of his three career Stanley Cups. Keane’s regular season efforts were enough to earn him the Jacques Beauchamp Trophy as the team’s unsung hero that year.
Keane was named team captain in April 1995 in the wake of the Kirk Muller trade.
He was subsequently dealt to Colorado in December 1995, sent to the Avalanche along with Patrick Roy in return for Jocelyn Thibault, Martin Rucinsky and Andrei Kovalenko. Keane won his second Stanley Cup that season with the Avalanche, the first in that franchise’s history.
In 506 games with the Canadiens, Keane had 90 goals and 179 assists for 269 points.
After signing with the New York Rangers in the summer of 1997, he was traded to the Dallas Stars, with whom he once again won the Stanley Cup. He is currently one of eight players in NHL history to have won the Cup with three different teams. He signed with the St. Louis Blues for 2001-02 but made his way back to Colorado midway through the season. After two more years with the Avalanche, he played one season with the Vancouver Canucks before retiring from the NHL.
With hockey blood coursing through his veins, he continued to play professionally, currently captaining the Manitoba Moose in his native Winnipeg, where he is able to pass along his playing experience to the Canucks’ AHL prospects.
