241. Glen Murray
A bit of a late bloomer in terms of his offensive production, Glen Murray began his career quietly with the Boston Bruins and Pittsburgh Penguins, but a trade to the Los Angeles Kings would see him gain two 60 Point seasons in the late 90s.  He would be traded back to the Bruins, where in the 2002-03 campaign, he would have a career high of 92 Points and lead the National Hockey League in Shots and Even Strength Goals.  He was named an All-Star in both seasons.
