31. Mark Hardy

Mark Hardy was one of the better offensive Defenseman for the Los Angeles Kings in the 1980s, debuting for them in 1979-80, the year he was taken in the Second Round.

From 1981-82 to 1984-85, Hardy had at least 39 Points, peaking with a 53-Point performance in the last year of that streak.  Hardy remained with the Kings until February of 1988 when he was traded to the Rangers, but he was traded back for their L.A.'s 1993 playoff run.  He played one more year before retiring.

Hardy had 303 Points in 616 Games for the Kings, a very good number, but his Plus/Minus -121 for Los Angeles hampers his rank.
