Rhéaume recorded a win in goal in Roller Hockey International, becoming the first woman to win a professional inline hockey game.
On August 15, 1994, Manon Rhéaume added yet another milestone to her career by becoming the first woman to record a victory in Roller Hockey International (RHI), the professional inline hockey league in which she had debuted earlier that summer with the New Jersey Rockin' Rollers.
Winning as a starting goaltender in a professional league required more than a token appearance—it demanded a genuine, competitive performance strong enough to secure a team victory against experienced male opponents. This achievement provided further concrete evidence that Rhéaume's earlier historic appearances in ice hockey were grounded in real athletic ability rather than mere symbolic gestures.
Her success in RHI, occurring in the same period as her ice hockey exploits with the IHL and NHL, showcased her remarkable adaptability and consistency as a goaltender across different formats and rules of hockey. It also helped to broaden the conversation about women's capabilities in professional sports beyond a single high-profile appearance, demonstrating a pattern of sustained excellence.
This victory remains one of the lesser-known but historically significant entries in the long list of barriers Rhéaume broke throughout the early-to-mid 1990s across multiple professional hockey leagues.
