170. Bill Guerin
Sometimes people forget just how good Bill Guerin was.  Winning the Stanley Cup twice over his 18-year career, Guerin became the first player in NHL history to score over 20 goals in a season for seven different teams.  That shows us two things, one, he was quite the scorer and two, that he was also quite the journeyman.

Still, this is a man who is in the United States Hockey Hall of Fame and quite an international career.  That does not go unnoticed by the Hall.
