Patrick Joseph Alexander "Paddy" Moran (March 11, 1877 – January 14, 1966) was a Canadian professional ice hockey goaltender.

Moran was noted for protecting the area in front of his net by aggressively using his stick, and expectorating at opposing players while chewing tobacco.

Moran began playing ice hockey at the age of 15, with a local Quebec team.

Over the next four years, Moran appeared in 38 games, but won only 11 of them, while his lowest goals-against average in a season during that span was 6.79.

[5] In Moran's era, goaltenders were not allowed to drop down to the ice to make saves, so his style suited him well.

Moran often chewed tobacco while on the ice, and another favorite tactic of his was to expectorate at opposing players.

[6] Moran's stick work was described as attempts to "slash [other players'] heads off with lightning strokes of his blade".

[7] Moran often wore oversized sweaters, claiming that they kept him warm in the cold arenas; however, he kept it unbuttoned, and often used it to catch shots.

In 1944 at age 66, Moran was interviewed about his playing days, along with contemporary goaltender Percy LeSueur, who is noted for his Stanley Cup wins in 1909 and 1911 with the Ottawa Senators.
