'''Dany Sabourin''' (born September 2, 1980) is a Canadian professional [[ice hockey]] coach and former [[goaltender]].

==Playing career==
Drafted in the fourth round, 108th overall by the [[Calgary Flames]] in the [[1998 NHL Entry Draft]], he played four games with Calgary before moving to the [[Pittsburgh Penguins]]. In 2006, he was awarded the [[Aldege "Baz" Bastien Memorial Award|Baz Bastien Memorial Trophy]] as top goaltender in the AHL after achieving 30 wins in 49 games with Pittsburgh's AHL [[farm team]] in [[Wilkes-Barre]]. In October 2006, the [[Vancouver Canucks]] claimed him via [[Waivers (NHL)|waivers]], where he served as backup to [[Roberto Luongo]].

On February 20, 2007, Sabourin achieved his first NHL win in 12 career games, when the Canucks defeated the [[Anaheim Ducks]] in overtime, by a score of 3–2.

On April 25, 2007, he made his playoff debut during the last 10 minutes of the third period when Roberto Luongo was pulled after Anaheim scored their 4th goal in the first game of the series. Anaheim scored their fifth goal on Sabourin during the final minute of the game, ending with a score of 5–1.

On May 3, 2007, he made his second playoff appearance in the first few minutes of overtime with the Vancouver Canucks facing elimination in Game 5 against the Ducks. He made five saves before being replaced back by Luongo, who was delayed by what was thought to be equipment problems. However, after the game, it was revealed Luongo had an untimely case of [[diarrhea]].<ref>[http://www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/sports/story.html?id=0683ea58-afd3-4504-9597-99f85f3d3379 MIA Lou reveals he was ... in the loo] {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20160131032027/http://www.canada.com/vancouversun/news/sports/story.html?id=0683ea58-afd3-4504-9597-99f85f3d3379 |date=2016-01-31 }}</ref> The Canucks later lost the game 2–1 in double overtime.

On July 1, 2007, Sabourin was signed by the Pittsburgh Penguins as an unrestricted free agent,<ref>{{cite web |url=https://www.tsn.ca/nhl/feature/?fid=4965|title=Sabourin signed by Penguins | publisher =tsn.ca | date = 2007-07-01 | access-date = 2007-11-10}}</ref> recording 10 wins for the Penguins in the [[2007–08 NHL season]].

On July 1, 2010, Sabourin signed a one-year deal with the [[Washington Capitals]]. He was assigned to AHL affiliate, the [[Hershey Bears]] on October 15. Sabourin spent the next three seasons within the Capitals organization, spending his entirety of his tenure as the Bears veteran goaltender.

On July 2, 2013, Sabourin opted to sign his first European contract, agreeing to a one-year deal with Austrian club, [[Graz 99ers]] of the [[Austrian Hockey League|EBEL]].<ref>{{cite web| url = https://www.facebook.com/photo.php?fbid=10151418481201486&l=ad265ee5a2 | title = Welcome Sabourin to Graz | publisher = [[Facebook]] | date = 2013-07-02 | access-date = 2013-07-02 }}</ref> As the starting goalie for Graz over the following two seasons, Sabourin was a workhorse appearing in every game as the club missed the post-season on each occasion.
