'''Steve Montador''' (born [[December 21]], [[1979]], [[Vancouver]], [[British Columbia]]) is a professional [[ice hockey]] [[Defenceman (ice hockey)|defenceman]] for the [[Anaheim Ducks]] of the [[National Hockey League]].
Having had previous spells with the [[North Bay Centennials]], [[Erie Otters]] and the [[Peterborough Petes]] of the [[Ontario Hockey League]] Montador was signed by Calgary as a free agent and spent time playing for the [[Saint John Flames]] out of the [[American Hockey League]]. Montador made his Calgary debut during the [[2001–02 NHL season]] playing 11 games and scoring a goal and two assists for three points. Over the next two season, Montador would play 76 more regular season games for Calgary and played 20 games in the [[2003–04 NHL Playoffs]] which saw Calgary reach the [[Stanley Cup]] finals only to lose to the [[Tampa Bay Lightning]]. With the [[2004–05 NHL season]] cancelled due to the [[2004–05 NHL lockout]], Montador was one of many NHL players to play in Europe, playing for [[France|French]] outfit [[Mulhouse]]. He was traded to [[Florida]] early in the [[2005–06 NHL season]] in the trade that brought [[Kristian Huselius]] to [[Calgary]].
