Sometimes people forget just how good Bill Guerin was. Winning the Stanley Cup twice over his 18-year career, Guerin became the first player in NHL history to score over 20 goals in a season for seven different teams. That shows us two things: one, he was quite the scorer, and two, that he was also quite the journeyman.

Still, this is a man who is in the United States Hockey Hall of Fame and has quite an international career. That does not go unnoticed by the Hall.
