Curtis Palidwor (born January 16, 1973, in New Westminster, British Columbia) is a former goaltender for the Calgary Roughnecks in the National Lacrosse League. In 2004 he was named MVP (Most Valuable Player) of the NLL's Champions Cup game, backstopping the Roughnecks to a 14–11 victory over the Buffalo Bandits.
Palidwor was awarded "Player of the Month" honors in March of the 2008 NLL season.[1]
During the 2009 season, Palidwor was traded from the Colorado Mammoth to the Toronto Rock for a second-round pick in the 2010 entry draft.[2] In his first and only game as a member of the Rock, he made 16 saves and allowed 10 goals in 45 minutes as the Rock lost 18–10 to Rochester. A week later, the trade was reversed as Palidwor was traded back to the Mammoth for the same draft pick.[3]
