In 1992, when Manon Rhéaume stepped on the ice as goaltender for the Tampa Bay Lightning, she became The First Woman of Hockey—the first and only female to play in an NHL game. Manon was also the first female to sign a contract as a professional hockey player, leading to a successful six-year career in the minor leagues. She is the subject of Angie Bullaro’s biographical novel, Breaking the Ice: The True Story of the First Woman to Play in the National Hockey League.
