Claude Lemieux was known for being a playoff superstar, which he was!  He is currently fourth all-time in Playoff Games, and he scored 158 Points in those postseason contests.  Lemieux is one of only ten players to have captured the Stanley Cup with three different teams (Montreal, New Jersey, and Colorado). He is a former Conn Smythe Trophy winner, and he was the leading goal scorer in the playoffs twice.  Clearly, Lemieux saved his best for when it counted, but in his 1,215 career games, he scored 786 Points, which is also pretty good.

A large and imposing blueliner, Jerry “King Kong” Korab was a significant cog in the Buffalo Sabres Stanley Cup appearance in 1975.  Korab owned a booming shot, which helped him display solid offensive skills.  With Buffalo, Korab scored 40 or more Points five times in a row and had another streak with the Los Angeles Kings later in his career.  He was also a two-time All-Star.

A lot of the success of the Buffalo Sabres can be claimed by their netminder, Don Edwards.  Edwards was twice named a Second Team All Star (1978 & 1980), the second of which was a Vezina Trophy winning campaign (along with Bob Sauve). 

Petr Svoboda quietly carved out a long and fruitful career in the NHL, where he played 1,028 Games.  Svoboda didn’t actually enter the National Hockey League in the quietest of ways, as he was a Czechoslovakian defector, but it proved advantageous quickly as he was a member of the Stanley Cup Championship Montreal Canadians in his second year in the league.
