Halak announced his retirement from professional hockey at age 40 on July 18, 2025, after going 295-189-69 with a 2.50 goals-against average, .915 save percentage and 53 shutouts in 581 regular-season games (555 starts) during 17 NHL seasons with the Montreal Canadiens, St. Louis Blues, Washington Capitals, New York Islanders, Boston Bruins, Vancouver Canucks and New York Rangers.
The native of Bratislava, Slovakia, was a ninth-round pick (No. 271) by the Canadiens in the 2003 NHL Draft, but ranks in the top 10 among active goaltenders in GAA (2.48; eighth) and shutouts (50; tied for fifth).
Halak came over to North America in 2004-05, when he played with Lewiston of the Quebec Major Junior Hockey League. The following season, he turned professional with Long Beach of the East Coast Hockey League, going 11-4-2 with a 2.05 GAA and a league-best .932 save percentage when he was promoted to Hamilton of the American Hockey League. There he went 7-6-0 with a 2.29 GAA and .927 save percentage.
Halak excelled again with Hamilton in 2006-07, earning a berth on the 2007 AHL All-Rookie Team with a league-best 2.00 GAA, a .932 save percentage and six shutouts. He was called up by the Canadiens that season and made his NHL debut against the Columbus Blue Jackets on Feb. 18, 2007, making 31 saves in a 3-2 victory.
In 2006-07, Halak finished with a 10-6-0 record, including 7-0-0 at Bell Centre, becoming the first NHL goaltender since Bob Froese of the Philadelphia Flyers in 1982-83 to win his first seven decisions at home.
Although he played most of the 2007-08 season with Hamilton, Halak played the entire 2008-09 season in Montreal, going 18-14-1 before having a breakout season in 2009-10, taking the No. 1 job away from Carey Price by going 26-13-5 with a 2.40 GAA, .924 save percentage and five shutouts. Halak then helped the eighth-seeded Canadiens rally from a 3-1 series deficit in the first round of the Stanley Cup Playoffs to upset the top-seeded Washington Capitals, stopping 131 of 134 shots in the final three games, including a Montreal playoff record 53 saves in Game 6.
Halak also helped the Canadiens rally past the Pittsburgh Penguins in the second round to the Eastern Conference final, but a few weeks after being eliminated by the Flyers, the Canadiens opted to stick with Price as their starter and traded Halak to the Blues for Lars Eller and Ian Schultz on June 17, 2010.
In 2011-12, his second with the Blues, he finished fourth in the NHL with 1.97 GAA (minimum 30 games) and won the William M. Jennings Trophy along with teammate Brian Elliott (who led the NHL with a 1.56 goals-against average) for fewest goals allowed.
Despite going 24-9-4 with a 2.23 GAA and .917 save percentage for St. Louis in 2013-14, Halak was traded to the Sabres on Feb. 28, 2014. He dressed for one game with Buffalo before being traded again, this time to the Capitals on March 5, 2014.
He went 5-4-3 with a 2.31 GAA and .930 save percentage with Washington, but the Capitals traded him on May 1, 2014, to the Islanders, He signed a four-year contract with New York on May 22, 2014.
Halak stepped in as New York's No. 1 goalie in 2014-15 and set franchise records with 38 victories, including 11 consecutive wins from Nov. 5 to Dec. 4, to help the Islanders return to the playoffs. That season, he was named an all-star for the first time in the NHL. He'd play three more seasons with the Islanders before signing as a free agent with the Bruins on July 1, 2018.
In his first season with Boston, as a backup to Tuukka Rask, he went 22-11-4 with a 2.34 GAA, a .922 save percentage and five shutouts.
After two more seasons as Rask's backup, Halak signed a one-year, $1.5 million contract with the Canucks on July 28, 2021. He signed a one-year contract with the Rangers on July 13, 2022.
Halak played for Slovakia in two IIHF World Junior Championships and three World Championships. He also helped Slovakia to a fourth-place finish at the 2010 Vancouver Olympics, played two games in the 2014 Sochi Olympics, and was chosen to play for Team Europe at the World Cup of Hockey 2016.
