gold star for USAHOF

41. Chico Maki

41. Chico Maki

Chico Maki played all fourteen of his NHL seasons with the Chicago Blackhawks yet since he suited up in Games 1 and 2 of the 1961 Stanley Cup Finals (he didn’t play in them) he actually had his name etched on the Cup before he began any of those fourteen campaigns.

Maki was not a great scorer, but he was a decent checker and a well-respected player in the locker room and among the Chicago fan base.  Maki was a three time NHL All Star who scored 436 Points over his career, a decent number for any franchise.
