The USPHL has announced that Las Vegas Thunderbirds goalie Anthony Bonaldi is a Pacific Division Goaltender of the Month for December.

Bonaldi, a 2001-born Las Vegas native, ended up putting together the best performance in December for any Pacific goalie facing at least 100 shots.

And, boy, did he face shots.

He made 132 stops on 144 shots to go 1-1 against the Lake Tahoe Lakers and get a second straight 46-save win against the San Diego Sabers to close out 2021.

He is 8-5-0 in his second season as a T-Bird.

During his youth career, Bonaldi spent time with the Jr. Coyotes and Arizona Bobcats.
