77. Gary Roberts

Again, this isn’t to say he wasn’t putting pucks in the net. Roberts had a season of over fifty goals once, and three times he had the highest shooting percentage in the NHL. What he was known for was his uncanny grit and determination, as well as his relentless desire to win. This should be expected of most hockey players, but few were on the level of Gary Roberts in that regard.
