Manon Rhéaume, first woman in pro hockey

Manon Rhéaume makes history by becoming the first woman to play professional hockey. She tends goal for the Tampa Bay Lightning in a NHL pre-season exhibition game against the St. Louis Blues. As reported in this TV footage, the 20-year-old Quebec native plays only one period, making seven saves and allowing two goals. But it is enough to thrust the "gorgeous goaltender" into the headlines.
