He may not have been the greatest goaltender in Penguins history, but he definitely had one of the best names: Dunc Wilson was one of the two main guardians of the Pittsburgh cage during the 1977-78 campaign, often starting a number of games in a row and then riding the bench for an equally long stretch while colleague Dennis Herron took the helm.
In this profile of Dunc from the November 16, 1977 Post-Gazette, we see a veteran goalie resigned to his fate as a journeyman puckstopper "in the twilight of a mediocre career." Definitely one of the most colorful characters to don a Pens uniform.
