258. Petr Sykora

Petr Sykora enjoyed a very nice career in the National Hockey League, where the gifted two-way player played 1,017 Games and, more importantly, won two Stanley Cups.  Sykora won the first with the New Jersey Devils, the team where he had three consecutive 65 Point Seasons (1988-89 to 2000-01).  It was in that last season that he won the Cup with the Devils.  He was actually in the Finals the year after with New Jersey, where he had 22 Points and finished with a +15, which was the highest in the Stanley Cup Playoffs, though his team would go down to defeat to the Colorado Avalanche.   Sykora would win his second Stanley Cup in a more reserve role with the Pittsburgh Penguins in 2009.

259. Ken Randall

Considered one of the early tough guys in North American hockey, Ken Randall would lead the NHL in Penalty Minutes in the inaugural season of the National Hockey League.  Randall would play both Right Wing and Defense, and he was a two-time Stanley Cup Champion with Toronto (1918 & 1922), the first when they were named the Arenas, the second when they were the St. Patricks.  Randall scored 121 Points over his tenure in the NHL.

131. Ron Ellis

Ron Ellis spent his entire professional career with the Toronto Maple Leafs, where, as one of the team's young guns, he helped the Buds win the 1967 Stanley Cup.  Before that, Ellis established himself as the runner-up to the Calder Trophy in the 1964-65 season, and he was known in Toronto and throughout the NHL for his back-checking and excellent two-way play. He could score when needed, as shown by his nine 20 Goal seasons and 640 Points.  The Right Winger would also represent Canada in their iconic 1972 Summit Series against the Soviet Union.

179. Kenny Wharram

Kenny Wharram played his entire career with the Chicago Blackhawks, where he helped them win the Stanley Cup in 1961.  Wharram would have four 65 Point seasons and two of which would see him nab a First Team All-Star nod.  His best season took place in 1963-64, when he won the Lady Byng, earned his first First Team All-Star selection, and was the top finisher in Power Play Goals and Shooting Percentage. His 39 Goals allowed him a second-place finish overall.
