A two-time All-Star with a 22-year professional career, Mathieu Schneider was one of the best American-born blueliners in the game’s history.  Schneider was adept on the offensive side of the game, scoring over 700 Points and internationally playing for the U.S. on their 1996 World Cup-winning team.  Schneider’s Hall of Fame chances almost depend on his longevity, but that is not always a stat that matters.

Sometimes people forget just how good Bill Guerin was.  Winning the Stanley Cup twice over his 18-year career, Guerin became the first player in NHL history to score over 20 goals in a season for seven different teams.  That shows us two things: one, he was quite the scorer, and two, that he was also quite the journeyman.

As one of the rare players in NHL history who has netted 60 Goals in a season, you would think that Dennis Maruk would have received more recognition in his career.  Actually, he still is.

Andrew Brunette really developed his playmaking skills at the professional level in his two years in Atlanta.  Brunette’s first 20 Goal season was in Atlanta, as was his first 50 Point campaign, of which he would have two for the Thrashers, which incidentally was the number of years he played for the team.
