gold star for USAHOF

44. Dan Quinn

44. Dan Quinn

Dan Quinn was traded from the Calgary Flames for Mike Bullard early in the 1986-87 season, and the Center would go on to have some of his best individual success in pro hockey.  He would score 71 of his 80 Points that year as a Penguin, and followed that with a career-best 40 Goal campaign, where he was eighth in the league in Power Play Goals.  That was good, but he would top that with a 94 Point year in 1988-89.  The Penguins had a lot of scorers by this point, and he was dealt to the Vancouver Canucks halfway through the 1989-90 campaign.

Quinn would come back as a free agent in 1996, but would only last 16 Games before getting released.  He would retire shortly after.  He would score 276 Points, with a PPG of 1.02.
