300. Joe Watson

Along with his brother Jimmy, Joe Watson was a vital member of the Broad Street Bullies, the Philadelphia team that won back-to-back Stanley Cups in the mid-1970s.  Watson was known for possessing any special skill in the game of hockey other than being one of the hardest workers on the ice who would lead by example.  The Flyers were rewarded for his hard work, as he was a two-time All-Star with a respectable 216 Points in the NHL, each point earned the hard way!

282. Dave Christian

Dave Christian is best known for being a member of the United States 1980 Olympic Gold Medal-winning team, but he was far more than just a member of the Miracle on Ice Team.  Christian was never a top-five finisher in any major individual award, but he was the recipient of the Lady Byng Trophy and Frank J. Selke Award voting, and he would have three 70 Point Seasons, two with the Winnipeg Jets and one with the Washington Capitals.  Christian scored 773 Points over his NHL career.

236. Barry Pederson

Barry Pederson was the runner-up for the Calder Trophy in 1982 when he had a 92-Point Season for the Boston Bruins. In the next two years, he had 107 and 116 Points, respectively, both of which earned him a trip to the All-Star Game. He was fifth and sixth in Points, respectively, in those years, which, given the high scoring in the 1980s, was no small accomplishment.

260. Wally Stanowski

A member of four Stanley Cup Championship teams for the Toronto Maple Leafs (1942, 1945, 1947 & 1948), Wally Stanowski was the runner-up for the Calder Trophy in 1940 and was a First Team All-Star the following season when he had a career high 21 Points.  Nicknamed the “Whirling Dervish” for his skating skills and aggressive play Stanowski was incredibly popular and probably would have had a more honored career had he not had to serve his country during World War II.  He would notably lead all skaters in Assists in the 1942 post season.
