106. Sid Smith
From the Original Six, Sid Smith was a consistent star for the Toronto Maple Leafs in the 50’s. Smith was a solid 20 goal scorer (a big deal for that era) but it always seemed that whenever Smith would put the puck in the net it would be in pivotal situations. Although he was a clutch goal scorer his gentlemanly play, which while respected, did not exactly make him stand out. Had he been able to do so, the multiple times All Star would have had a much better shot for induction.
