91. Terry O’Reilly
As one of the toughest members of the 1970s Boston Bruins (which really says something), Terry O’Reilly was a rough enforcer who was able to score. The emotional leader of Boston was a rugged protector of skilled players, but he himself enjoyed a pair of 70-point-plus seasons and was an underrated defender. With 606 career points, Terry O’Reilly likely does not have the overall statistics for serious consideration from the Hall. Still, his number was retired by Boston, an honor that he certainly deserved.
