Before he was a Chicago Blackhawk, Pat Stapleton was a Toronto Maple Leaf for all of one day, as he was left unprotected after being traded from the Boston Bruins.  Had the Bruins known what Stapleton was going to accomplish in Chi-Town, they likely never would have traded him, and the Leafs would never have left him unprotected.

Kenny Wharram was with the Chicago Blackhawks for his entire NHL career, which lasted 14 seasons and 766 Games.  Early, he would assist Chicago win the 1961 Stanley Cup, but realistically he blossomed a little later in his career, and his first really good season in the NHL took place when he was 30, where he would be a Second Team All Star, A Lady Byng Trophy winner, and lead the league in Power Play Goals and Shooting Percentage.  He was sixth in Points that year with a career high 71 Points.  Wharram would have two more 60 Point seasons, finishing fourth and ninth respectively, the first of which was his second Second Team All-Star campaign. 

Paul Thompson would win a Stanley Cup with the New York Rangers in 1928, but after he was traded to Chicago before the 1931-32 Season, he would go on the best run of his playing career.

Brent Seabrook played all 1,114 of his NHL Games with the Chicago Blackhawks, where he provided leadership, solid defense, and offensive rushes when needed.  Seabrook was an Alternate Captain, but it was not that long ago that he was part of a youth movement that would bring the Blackhawks their first Stanley Cup in decades with their win in 2010.  That year was pretty special for the Defenseman, as he would help Canada win the Olympic Gold Medal.
