Was on a 7 game winning streak when he was injured during an exhibition game vs the Soviets. Missed a month.
Returned with a shutout victory against the LA Kings, but stumbled the rest of the season. Finished the season going 6-6-0, .851 and 3.90.
Then things really ended bad for Lindbergh, as the Flyers got swept by the underdog New York Rangers in three games. Lindbergh gave up 9 goals in the finale.

For the second set in a row, OPC gives up a glimpse of the left side of Dion's awesome mask. Eventually OPC will cave in and give a full view but so far, it's just teases.
Twice during the season Dion made 48 saves and won. Dion stopped 48 of 50 shots in a 4-2 victory against the Flyers, and stopped 48 out of 52 in a 7-4 win against the Kings. On the flip side, when playing the entire game, and making less than 20 saves, Dion was 1-3-1.

It's odd how sometimes is seems that a trade of a back-up goalie can act as a turning point. Bouchard was 15-12-4, .875, and 3.89 when back-up John Garrett was traded. Afterward, Dan was 5-9-4, .869, and 4.23. The Nordiques as a team slide backwards and were beaten in the first round 3 games to 1 by the Boston Bruins.

Liut led the league in games and minutes played for the second straight season.
Although Liut played better than the previous season, the Blues as a team digressed, on and off the ice. The season was lowlighted by a ownership squabble, a veto'd move to Saskatoon, the Blues skipping the 1983 draft and the NHL taking temporary ownership of the team.

The Popcorn Kid pops back to Toronto after two disappointing seasons in Washington. Palameeter makes the switch from mask to cage, as shown on this card.
Palmateer struggled in the first half of the season, going 4-13-4, .851, and 4.71. He improved greatly with the flip of the calendar, going 17-10-3, .885 and 3.49 from January to April.

The emergence of Lindbergh and Froese on the Flyers made St.Croix expendable. St.Croix was traded from the Flyers to the Maple Leafs on January 11th. In what should have been a death sentence to goalies, St. Croix survived quite well... for now.
With Philadelphia, 9-5-2, .875, and 3.45
With Toronto, 4-9-2, .886 and 3.80
While his record dropped off as expected, his save percent and GAA held up considering the switch of uniforms.

King Richard had an off season. After tremendous success in the 1982 play-offs, the Canucks and Brodeur fell flat. His save percent was down, and GAA up.
Even with this, he was selected to play in All-Star Game. Each team needed a representative and Brodeur, 15-23-5, .875, and 3,78, was to represent Vancouver. Until he took a puck to the head vs Toronto, 2 games before the All-Star break. He missed a month of action.

All-Star Game
On Feb 4th, Garrett was traded to the Quebec Nordiques to the Vancouver Canucks. On Feb 5th, he came off the bench for an injured Richard Brodeur. On Feb 6th, he started in a 4-4 Tie with New Jersey. On Feb 8th, he played in the All-Star Game and was runner-up for the MVP. It was a whirlwind week for Garrett.
Back in the 80s, every team had at least one player selected to the All-Star game. The Canucks had a single player and that was Richard Brodeur. Brodeur got injured 2 games before the All-Star Game, which meant the Canucks needed a new representative. So by default, it was journeyman John Garrett.
I wonder if the Canucks hadn't traded for Garrett, if the NHL would have sent rookie Ken Ellacott to play in place of Broduer. He was the back-up until Garrett was acquired. Ellacott never played another NHL game after the Garrett acquisition.

Things were looking good for Capitals goalies, as the team put a emphasis on defence. This included acquiring Rod Langway in the 1982 offseason.
Jensen liked playing at home.
Home - 16-4-3 , .892, 3.00, 1
Away - 6-8-3 , .870, 4.04, 0
Jensen and Pat Riggin shared a shutout in the last game of the regular season, in a 3-0 victory over the Rangers. I believe it was the only shared shutout of the 1980s.

Not sure what is going on with Doug's face on this card. Perhaps he is skating a little too fast around the rink during warm-ups. Or perhaps he is thinking of rookie Brian Hayward taking over as #1.
Soetaert saw his workload drop dramatically after Hayward was promoted to the Jets. Doug only started 11 of 35 games after Hayward joined the team. Compared to 33 of the first 45.
