Description

Alexander Marcus Flint Goligoski (born July 30, 1985) is a retired American professional ice hockey defenseman.
During his NHL career, he has also played for the Dallas Stars and Pittsburgh Penguins, the organization that drafted him in the second round, 61st overall, in 2004.
On February 21, 2011, Goligoski was traded to the Dallas Stars in exchange for left winger James Neal and defenseman Matt Niskanen. In 2011, Goligoski was invited to play for the United States at the 2011 IIHF World Championship in Slovakia. He declined, however, because he had not had much off-time in the past few seasons.
On January 23, 2012, Goligoski signed a four-year, $18.4 million contract extension with Dallas.
On June 16, 2016, the Stars traded his rights to the Arizona Coyotes in exchange of a fifth-round pick in the 2016 NHL Entry Draft. As an impending free agent, Goligoski was signed before the exclusivity window closed, agreeing to a five-year contract with the Coyotes on June 21, 2016.

Following the 2023–24 season, Goligoski announced his retirement from hockey.
