gold star for USAHOF

37. Jozef Stumpel

37. Jozef Stumpel

Jozef Stumpel was coming into his own as a playmaker with the Boston Bruins, and after a 76-Point year, he was traded to Los Angeles, who needed his abilities.

In Stumpel’s first season as a King, he had a career-high 58 Assists, a number that was good enough to land him fifth in the league.  Injuries compiled on Stumpel over the next two years, as he was missing a handful of games in both years, but when he was healthy, he was playmaking as well as anyone in the NHL.

Early in the 2001/02 Season, Stumpel was traded back to Boston, but two years later, he was dealt back to L.A., playing one more year before signing with the Florida Panthers as a Free Agent.  As a King, Stumpel scored 267 Points in 334 Games.
