Andrew Brunette had a long and healthy career in the NHL, where he was known throughout for his durability and consistency.  Brunette also had a reputation for his accuracy, as he led the league in Shooting Percentage in the 2009/10 season and ranked in the top ten in that statistic five other seasons.

Early in his career, it could be argued that Ab McDonald was in the right place at the right time.  McDonald’s first two games in the NHL were in the 1958 Playoffs, where, with the Montreal Canadiens, he would win a Stanley Cup.  McDonald would see his name etched into the Cup the following year in a more active role, and in 1961, after being traded to the Chicago Blackhawks, he would win his third Stanley Cup, a great honor for someone who was not even 25 yet.

Mike Ridley had a pretty good career for someone who went undrafted.
