From Trenton, Michigan, a National Hockey League team never drafted Andy Greene, and he needed to prove himself with the Miami Redhawks in the MAC.  Greene performed well enough for the New Jersey Devils to sign him in 2006.

An underrated Defenseman, Torey Krug, played College Hockey at Michigan State, exceeding all expectations to become a finalist for the Hobey Baker Award.  His work landed him a Free Agent signing with the Boston Bruins, and he was ready to shatter the ceiling again.

Currently, David Pastrnak is an eleven-season NHL veteran, all of which were spent as a Boston Bruin.

Depending on your point of view, Marchand is either a dirty player or a brilliant agitator, or perhaps he is an elite combination of both.  Regardless of which label, the undersized winger blossomed into a top scorer, especially in higher-pressure situations.
