Charlie Huddy was a member of all five Stanley Cup wins for the Edmonton Oilers, and while many of those Oilers stars are inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame, Huddy has not been, it does not mean that his accomplishments for Edmonton should be discounted.

Huddy may never have played in an NHL All-Star Game, but as an Oiler, he had six 40 Point seasons and finished sixth in Norris Trophy voting in back-to-back years (1982-83 & 1983-84). In that 82-83 season, Huddy would lead the NHL in Plus/Minus, and he was also the top finisher in that statistic in the 1984 Playoffs, which was the first of five Stanley Cups he would win. Huddy would join Wayne Gretzky in Los Angeles later in his career, and it is worth mentioning that he was also a member of the 1984 Canada Cup winning team.
