- Born Oct. 2, 1974
Maracle joined the WHL\'s Saskatoon Blades during the 1991–92 season and remained with them until the 1993–94 season. Maracle\'s level of play during the 1993–94 season would earn him the Del Wilson Trophy for best goaltender in the WHL. Prior to the 1993–94 seasons, the Detroit Red Wings drafted Maracle in the 5th Round, 126th overall, in the 1993 NHL Entry Draft.\n', '
For the start of the 1994–95 season, Maracle was signed by the Detroit Red Wings and reassigned to their American Hockey League (AHL) affiliate, the Adirondack Red Wings, sharing goaltending duties with Kevin Hodson. For the next two seasons, Maracle remained in the AHL, posting prolific winning records and a high save percentage each season,[citation needed] but was not called up by the Red Wings due to their overwhelming goaltending depth, as he was the fourth goaltender behind Mike Vernon, Chris Osgood and Hodson. Later in 2018, on January 6 Maracle was honored into the Adirondack Hockey Hall of Fame in Glens Falls, New York. He was one of three former members if the Detroit Red Wings affiliate, the Adirondack Red Wings, next to Neil Smith (ice hockey) and Chris Tancill.\n', '
While Maracle spent the 1997–98 season as the starting goaltender in Adirondack, he eventually received a call up from the Red Wings and posted a 2–0–1 record in four NHL appearances. He did not see any playoff action that season, where the Red Wings went on to win their second consecutive Stanley Cup championship. He was included on the team picture, and awarded a Stanley Cup Ring. However, his name does not appear on the Stanley Cup because he did not play enough games to qualify.\n', '
