| Patrick Coté |
QUEBEC —
Well this might be the most bizarre story we have ever had on NewJersey-Devils.com — former NHLer Patrick Coté, who was drafted in 1995 by the Dallas Stars, is in prison for 30 months after he admitted to police he’d robbed two Quebec-based banks, Montreal’s CJAD 800 radio reports.
According to CJAD, Coté had a run-in with police after his car broke down. Thing is, he was driving a stolen car, the report says.
After he went in for questioning, he admitted the two robberies to police.
This isn’t Coté’s first run-in with the law either, according to reports.
He also has convictions on drug charges, armed-assault charges among others.
CBS Sports says Coté’s best season was 1998-99, when he had 2 points in 70 games for Dallas (1g, 1a, 2p). He also played for Nashville and Edmonton and was known more as an enforcer.
What a falling off was there!
