220. Craig Janney
Nearly a Point per Game player over his NHL career (751 Points in 760 Games), Craig Janney might very well claim one of the best players never to make an All-Star Game. Janney was a brilliant playmaker who at times was one with the puck, and he would finish in the top ten in Assists four times, with a career high of 82 in the 1992-93 season. Janney, who was with the St. Louis Blues at the time, would tally 106 Points that year.
Internationally, he would represent the United States at the 1988 Olympics and the 1991 Canada Cup. His career would end prematurely due to issues with blood clots, and he would enter the U.S. Hockey Hall of Fame in 2016.
