Like many Defenceman Gordie Roberts did not light the lamp often, but he did provide offensive spark, providing the Minnesota North Stars with 30 Assists or more five times.  Perhaps calling Roberts a “spark” is inaccurate, as he was better classified as a rugged player who could steal the puck and help create a counterattack, something that he did often.  While Roberts did not win a Cup with the North Stars, his veteran presence was felt in the Penguins' back-to-back titles.

Prior to being a North Star, Al MacAdam was a two-time All-Star with the Cleveland Barons, the team that merged its assets with Minnesota in 1978.  The Right Winger might not have been named an All-Star while he played for Minnesota, but it was while wearing the green, gold, and white that he had his best season, a 94 Point campaign in 1979-80, where he would also win the Bill Masterton Trophy.

Tim Young spent the majority of his professional career with the Minnesota North Stars, where he averaged a very good .88 Points per Game.  In his second season, Young was named an All-Star and finished the season with 95 Points, which was good enough for 5th in the NHL.  While he never finished in the top ten in scoring again, he did have two more seasons of 60 or more Points.

While somewhat injury-prone, Fred Barrett found a way to play 745 Games in the National Hockey League (730 of which were with the North Stars).  Barrett was an energetic force on the ice and in the locker room, making him an asset to the team despite his relatively low production on the box score.
