Chak De India: What happened to Indian Hockey?
Indian hockey team holds the record for most goals in a single match.
The 1932 Los Angels Olympics witnessed a couple of world records created by Indians WHICH STILL STAND UNBROKEN
* The biggest score in an international hockey match: India won USA by 24-1
* Most goals scored in a single hockey match: Roop Singh, 10 goals
* It was the match of the "Hockey Brothers"- Roop Singh (left) and Dhyan Chand (Centre Forward)
* India's performance in the 1932 Olympics:
Played :2
Won:2
Goals For: 35
Goals Against: 2 (Just Two!!)!!!!!!!
Again, there is an amusing tale behind the solitary goal by USA in the match..
The defenders have decided to let the opposition run behind, but when they looked behind, there was no goal keeper!!!
Indian Goal Keeper Richard Allen was signing autographs behind the goal post!!!
Is there any possibility of any Indian Goal Keeper to do so in future?

You're talking about field hockey, right? Indians are still a world power at that sport and hosted the Field Hockey World Cup in 2009.
As a sidenote, the Indian team played a series of test matches last year in Canada. My husband and I went to one of the matches in Surrey, B.C. in which Team India and Team Canada ended the match in a 4-4 tie. If I recall correctly, that was the only match (out of 7) that India didn't win. A 6-0-1 record is nothing to sneeze at, though!
As far as Indian goalkeepers leaving the net to sign autographs during a game... I don't think that'll ever happen again. Other nations are getting better at field hockey and India can't take them for granted like they could in the past.
If you mean, could there ever be an Indian goalie in the NHL... well, maybe. As Its That Purp mentioned, Prabhraj (Prab) Rai just signed with the Vancouver Canucks. He just happens to be from Surrey, B.C., by the way. If he is successful, then more Indian players might take up ice hockey. So far, there have only been a handful, but one day, maybe an Indian NHL goalie will emerge!
