Michael Garnett (born on November 25, 1982 in Saskatoon, Saskatchewan, Canada) is a professional ice hockey goaltender for the NHL's Atlanta Thrashers. Garnett spent his junior years in the Western Hockey League for the Red Deer Rebels and the Saskatoon Blades before being drafted by the Thrashers in round 3, 80th overall in the 2001 NHL Entry Draft. Garnett has spent most of his NHL career with Atlanta's AHL's affiliate the Chicago Wolves but in the 2005-06 NHL season, Garnett was called up to the main Thrashers roster for the first time, serving as a backup goalie. In December 2005, Garnett became the first goaltender in the history of the franchise to post back-to-back shutouts.
