289. Thomas Steen
Thomas Steen played his entire National Hockey League career with the Winnipeg Jets where he may not have been known outside small market Winnipeg and his home country of Sweden, but this was a player who was vastly underrated and selfless and thus invaluable to the Jets who never let him go. Beyond his work with the Jets, Steen played for Sweden Internationally on three Canada Cups and was a two time Silver Medalist in the World Championship. Steen’s #25 would be retired by the Jets in 1995.
