From New Jersey, Bobby Ryan was the Second Overall Pick in 2005 and would be the runner-up for the Calder three years later when he scored 57 Points.

From Pittsburgh, John Gibson played college hockey at the prestigious University of Michigan and the United States at the World Juniors.  The Anaheim Ducks took the American Goalie in the Second Round of the 2011 Draft, and at present, this is the only NHL team that he is playing for.

Jonas Hiller was not anyone’s NHL radar for years, but the Swiss-born Goalie was tearing it up in the Swiss League, and the Anaheim Ducks signed him as a Free Agent in 2007 when he was 25.

Before he arrived in Anaheim, Chris Pronger had what could be considered a Hall of Fame career.  The Defenseman already won a Hart Trophy and Norris Trophy, which is enough for one hell of a hockey career.  Playing for the St. Louis Blues for most of his career, Pronger was an Edmonton Oiler for one season but was unhappy and requested a trade.  The Oilers acquiesced and dealt him to Anaheim, where he earned the one thing that his career missed…a Stanley Cup.
