255. Don Beaupre
Don Beaupre may have lost more games than he won, but considering he played two seasons for a horrific Ottawa Senators expansion team early in his career, perhaps we can cut him some slack on that one.
Beaupre makes this list on the strength of his play in Washington and, more importantly, with the Minnesota North Stars, where, as a rookie, he was an All-Star and backstopped them into an improbable Stanley Cup Final. Beaupre was a two-time All-Star, and in the 1985-86 season, he was the NHL leader in Goalie Point Shares.
