[edit] Playing career

In 2003, LeNeveu led the Cornell Big Red to to a Frozen Four after the team topped the national polls all year long. He set a Cornell record for shutouts that year, topping legendary goal tender Ken Dryden.

LeNeveu was selected by the Phoenix Coyotes in the 2nd round (46th overall) of the 2002 NHL Entry Draft. He made his NHL debut on October 6, 2005 against the Los Angeles Kings, making 25 saves in a 3-2 defeat.

At the trading deadline of the 2007-2008 NHL Season, the Phoenix Coyotes traded LeNeveu, along with forwards Fredrik Sjostrom and Josh Gratton, to the New York Rangers in exchange for Marcel Hossa and goaltender Al Montoya. LeNeveu currently plays for the Hartford Wolf Pack, the AHL affiliate of the New York Rangers.
