NOTE
Plasse is credited with scoring the 1st goal by a pro goalie, when on February 21, 1971 while playing with Kansas City Blues, scored on Oklahoma City Blazers.... empty net goal.

Chuck Rayner scored in 1944, but he was playing for a Royal Canadian Navy Team in WWII, so not professionally at that time.
