History

Born on September 3, 1980 in Thornhill, Ontario, Dominic Moore has grown up watching and learning the game of hockey from his two older brothers, Mark and Steve, who currently are both playing professional hockey this season. Mark, a defenseman, was drafted in the 7th Round (179th overall) of the 1997 Entry Draft by the Pittsburgh Penguins. After graduating from the Harvard University two years ago, Mark played 27 games in the ECHL last season and 11 games in the AHL with the Wilkes-Barre/Scranton Penguins last season. This season he seems to have found his niche, appearing in 41 games for the Wheeling Nailers of the ECHL, totaling 5 goals and 15 points, along with 30 penalty minutes. Steve, a forward, is the biggest of the three Moore brothers and was also drafted the highest, selected in the 2nd round (53rd overall) of the 1998 Entry Draft by the Colorado Avalanche. Steve just graduated from Harvard from Harvard this past year, and is in his first season of professional hockey. In 39 games with the Hershey Bears, Steve has 6 goals, 8 assists, 14 points and 19 penalty minutes. He also got a cup of coffee in the NHL with the Avalanche, tallying no points in three games. All three Moore brothers played for Harvard during the 1999-2000 season, which was the first time in the history of the school that a brother-trio played for their hockey team. Mark was in his senior year, Steve was a junior, and young Dominic was a freshman. Steve was the first one to reach the NHL, but it could be Dominic who makes the biggest impact in the National Hockey League.
