Pascal Dupuis

Pascal Dupuis was not drafted in the NHL, but he fought his way into the greatest professional hockey league in the world and had a sixteen year career. Dupuis played well on both ends of the ice and sporadically received voted for the Selke and Lady Byng Trophy.  He would lead the NHL in Plus Minus in the 2012-13 season and has a Stanley Cup ring with the Pittsburgh Penguins

Barret Jackman

Barret Jackman was your prototypical stay-at-home blueliner who served the St. Louis Blues very well over his career.  A natural leader, Jackman was never going to become a playmaker but he did battle through a lot of injuries to have a very good career in the National Hockey League.  Jackman would notably win the Calder Trophy in 2001-02.
From the baseball-rich nation of Mexico, Teddy Higuera made history as the first Mexican to win 20 Games in MLB, a season where he was the American League Cy Young runner up and the leader for bWAR by Pitchers.  Higuera’s career in MLB was not relatively long, but it was spent only with Milwaukee where he was named an All-Star in 1986.  Two years later he would lead the American League in WHIP with a 0.999 tally.

Higuera dealt with a litany of injuries, which shortened his career, but he still left the game with a career record of 94-64 and 1,061 Strikeouts.
Cecil Cooper was a really good baseball player though it seemed that only people in Milwaukee were aware of it!
