A veteran of 1,108 Games in the National Hockey League, Adrian Aucoin was an underrated player who may have been labeled as such because he was a slow starter.  A middle round draft pick, Aucoin would have six 30 Point Seasons (one with Vancouver, three with the Islanders, and two with Calgary) with 399 overall, a decent number for a Defenseman.  He was named an All-Star in 2004 and while he did not have any signature moments in hockey, he was very good for a long time.  Not many players can say that.

Alexei Zhamnov was a product of the Soviet Union and the Moscow Dynamo, and unlike many of his older peers, he was able to enter the National Hockey League early in his playing career.

Glen Wesley was a veteran of 20 years in the National Hockey League and, with 1,457 Games Played, is one of only a handful of players who tallied that many shifts and is not in the Hall of Fame.

The possessor of one of the coolest Scandinavian names in sports history, Ulf Samuelsson played 1,080 Games in the National Hockey League and was known for his hard hits and defensive play.  Samuelsson may never have been an All-Star, but he was one of the better blueliners in his day, and he played many times internationally for Sweden.
