Nicolas Pinto is a former Canadian soccer player who had stints in the USL A-League and the Canadian Professional Soccer League.

Playing career

Pinto began his professional career in 2000, with the Montreal Impact in the USL A-League. He was one of the several new signings conducted by new Montreal head coach Zoran Jankovic. [1] During his tenure with Montreal he mostly served as a backup goalkeeper, and appeared in two matches. On May 16, 2001 he was signed by newly expansion franchise Montreal Dynamites of the Canadian Professional Soccer League. [2] He helped Montreal finish fourth in the overall standings, thus qualifying for the playoffs. In the playoffs the Dynamites faced St. Catharines Wolves, but were defeated by a score of 2-1. Pinto returned to the organization for the 2002 season. [3] Montreal would finish second in the Eastern Conference and secure a postseason berth. The club was eliminated early on in a wildcard match against the Metro Lions in a 3-1 defeat.

In 2004, the Dynamites took a sabbatical for the 2004 season, which resulted in Pinto re-signing with the organization for the 2005 season. The Laval franchise finished third in the Eastern Conference, and reached the quarterfinals.
