gold star for USAHOF

38. Jason Arnott

38. Jason Arnott

Jason Arnott was the 7th Overall Draft Pick in 1993, and as a rookie, he would have one of the best seasons of his career.  The Center scored 68 Points, and was the runner-up for the Calder Trophy, losing to future Hockey Hall of Famer, Martin Brodeur.  Arnott would never match that total again as an Oiler, but he would have two more campaigns where he had at least 57 Points.  He would also be named an All-Star in 1997.

In the following season, Arnott was traded to the New Jersey Devils, and he would later win a Stanley Cup with them in 2000.
