Marc G. D'Amour (born May 29, 1961) is a Canadian retired professional ice hockey goaltender. He played 16 games in the National Hockey League (NHL) for the Calgary Flames and Philadelphia Flyers during the 1985–86 and 1988–89 seasons.

Playing career

D'Amour played four seasons of junior hockey with the Sault Ste. Marie Greyhounds between 1978 and 1982 before signing as a free agent with the Flames. After bouncing around the Flames minor league system, he earned his first call-up to the NHL in 1985–86. He played 15 games with the Flames but after posting only two victories, lost his job to Mike Vernon. He played one game for the Flyers in 1988–89, but otherwise remained in the minor leagues until he retired in 1992.[1]
