Joseph Georges Claude Pronovost (July 22, 1935 – September 1, 2022) was a Canadian ice hockey goaltender who played three games in the National Hockey League with the Boston Bruins and Montreal Canadiens between 1956 and 1959, serving as an emergency goalie each time.
[1] Pronovost was with the Montreal Canadiens as a practice goaltender in the 1955–56 season when he played his first NHL game.
The Bruins were without regular starter Terry Sawchuk and were unable to use their backup John Henderson because of equipment problems.
The Canadiens loaned Pronovost to the Bruins for the game, and he recorded a shutout against his own team.
