Nathan Marsters, 1980-2009.
Hats off to fans who remember Nathan Marsters, a goaltender who served as the backup in one game for the Mighty Ducks against the Calgary Flames in April 2006. Marsters was killed Monday night when a deer crashed through the window of his pickup truck in Smithville, Ontario.
A minor-league journeyman, Marsters spent four seasons between the ECHL and AHL after being drafted by the Kings in 2001. The full obituary can be found over at NiagaraThisWeek.com.
