145. Lorne Carr
Lorne Carr had a very good career where he averaged .74 Points per Game over a 13-year span in the 1930s and 1940s.  Carr could best be described as an above-average player, but he would see his numbers increase during World War II, where many of the top talents were serving their country.  Carr remained in the NHL, and in the 1942-43 and 1943-44 seasons, he put up his best numbers and was named a First Team All-Star.  Carr played for the New York Rangers and the New York Americans, but it was with the Leafs that he became a two-time First Team All-Star. More importantly, he helped the Leafs win two Stanley Cups (1941 & 1945).
