Joseph Albert Marcel Rolland Huard (September 6, 1902 – September 16, 1979) was a professional ice hockey centre who played in one National Hockey League game for the Toronto Maple Leafs during the 1930–31 NHL season and became the first player (of four, as of 2018) to score a goal in his only NHL game.[1] Huard would ultimately play eight seasons of pro hockey from 1926-34, primarily in the Canadian Professional Hockey League (later the International Hockey League.) He died in 1979 on a fishing trip near Maniwaki, Quebec, and was interred at Notre Dame Cemetery in Ottawa.[2][3]
