72. Brent Sutter

Normally if you are considered the best hockey player in your family it isn’t much of an accolade.  This was not the case for Brent Sutter who may have been the most talented of what could be the most storied siblings of professional hockey.  The Sutters were known for their work ethic and Brent was no exception. Brent Sutter was known for doing all the small intangibles to make a team successful, and yet he was still able to achieve over 800 points in his career. He likely won’t get in, but should he slip in it might be a celebration of the Sutter family as a whole.
