Corey Crawford was drafted by the Chicago Blackhawks in 2003 (52^nd Overall) but it was not until the 2010-11 Season where he saw significant playing time for the parent club.

Crawford became Chicago’s top Goalie, where he had the task of helping them defend their Stanley Cup Title.  The Blackhawks did not repeat as champions in 2011, but Crawford was the Goalie behind their wins in 2013 and 2015.  A two-time winner of the William M. Jennings Trophy and two-time All-Star, Crawford finished in the top ten in Save Percentage four times, and was in the top ten in Vezina trophy three times.

He retired after the 2019/20 Season, completing his career in Chicago with a record 260-162-53.

Brent Seabrook played all 1,114 of his NHL Games with the Chicago Blackhawks, where he provided leadership, solid defense, and offensive rushes when needed.  Seabrook was an Alternate Captain but it was not that long ago that he was part of a youth movement that would bring the Blackhawks their first Stanley Cup in decades with their win in 2010.  That year was pretty special for the Defenseman, as he would help Canada win the Olympic Gold Medal. 

Seabrook would help Chicago win two more Stanley Cups (2013 & 2015) and was an All-Star in 2015.  He scored 30 or more Points eight times and has also received Norris Trophy votes on three different occasions.  The Defenseman would score 464 Points with a +111 Plus/Minus over his career.

In the modern era, Ryan Kesler is one of the top defensive forwards, having not only won the Frank J. Selke Trophy in 2011, but finishing in the top three four other times.

The American debuted in the NHL in 2003 with the Vancouver Canucks, the team he played for over a decade.  Kesler had back-to-back 70-plus Point Seasons (2009-10 & 2010-11) with Vancouver, the team he won the Selke with.  Notably, Kesler was eighth in Hart Trophy voting that year.

Kesler played the last five years of his career with the Ducks, and overall had 573 Points in 1,001 NHL Games.  He would represent the United States numerous times, peaking with a Silver Medal in the 2010 Olympics.

Jason Pominville played most of his career with the Buffalo Sabres, the organization that drafted him in 2001.  

Playing at Right Wing, Pominville became a strong two-way player, scoring at least 50 Points from 2006-07 to 2011-12, with a peak of 80 in 2007-08.  Pominville never won an individual award over his career, but the 2012 All-Star would receive Lady Byng votes in ten of his seasons, and Frank J. Selke votes in four of them.

Pominville was traded to Minnesota in 2012, giving them a pair of 50-Point seasons, but returned to the Sabres to 2017 to play two more years.  He would finish his NHL career with 727 Points in 1,060 Games.
