123. Sean Burke

Although the career of Sean Burke was a long and prosperous one, it can be argued that he didn’t live up to the overall expectations that he came with when he entered the National Hockey League. Burke was a star for the Canadian National Team. Many thought that his first NHL team (New Jersey) would go only as far as Burke could take them and though did not prove to be true, Burke proved to be a very good goaltender early in his career. Burke would last twenty years in the NHL and although he tallied over 300 wins, his overall record showed more losses than victories. Throw in the fact that he played for nine teams in the National Hockey League you may have the career of the greatest journeyman goalie of all time. Journeyman and Hall of Fame are not exactly synonymous.
