Curtis Palidwor (born January 16, 1973, in New Westminster, British Columbia) is a former goaltender for the Calgary Roughnecks in the National Lacrosse League. In 2004 he was named MVP (Most Valuable Player) of the NLL's Champions Cup game, backstopping the Roughnecks to a 14–11 victory over the Buffalo Bandits.
Palidwor was awarded "Player of the Month" honors in March of the 2008 NLL season.{{cite web |url= http://nll.com/article.php?id=3404|title=Palidwor & Hall Win Monthly Awards|access-date=2008-04-04 |format= |work=NLL.com }}
During the 2009 season, Palidwor was traded from the Colorado Mammoth to the Toronto Rock for a second round pick in the 2010 entry draft.{{cite web|url=http://www.nll.com/article.php?id=3818 |title=Rock Acquire Palidwor from Mammoth |work=NLL.com |date=February 26, 2009 |access-date=2009-03-17 |url-status=dead |archiveurl=https://web.archive.org/web/20090303051725/http://www.nll.com/article.php?id=3818 |archivedate=2009-03-03 }} In his first and only game as a member of the Rock, he made 16 saves and allowed 10 goals in 45 minutes as the Rock lost 18–10 to Rochester. A week later, the trade was reversed as Palidwor was traded back to the Mammoth for the same draft pick.{{cite web|url=http://torontorock.com/index.php/article/curtis-palidwor-returns-to-colorado-mammoth|title=Curtis Palidwor Returns to Colorado Mammoth|work=TorontoRock.com|date=March 7, 2009|access-date=2009-03-17|archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110717074956/http://torontorock.com/index.php/article/curtis-palidwor-returns-to-colorado-mammoth|archive-date=July 17, 2011|url-status=dead}}
