107. John Ogrodnick
John Ogrodnick was at his best when he played for the Detroit Red Wings in the first half of the 1980s, which was where he went to five All-Star Games.  Unfortunately for Ogrodnick, Detroit was not particularly good when he played there, but while he was in Motown, he was a near Point-per-Game player, and he was named a First Team All Star in the 1984-85 season, where he scored 105 Points.  He would score 827 Points in his NHL career.
