154. Dany Heatley

Dany Heatley is known for two things.  The first is the disaster that took place when he was a member of the Atlanta Thrashers, where he was responsible for his teammate’s death from a car crash.  The second is what he accomplished on the ice where he was a former Calder Trophy winner and a star for the Ottawa Senators.   Is he a Hockey Hall of Famer?   He probably is not, but his time with the Sens is better than he gets credit for, and he is a two-time Game-Winning Goals leader.

Chris Kunitz

A three time Stanley Cup Champion and one time Olympic Champion, Chris Kunitz has quietly put together an outstanding career.  Kunitz, a spectacular forechceker, always seems to be attached to winners, and with a career that is not over yet, who knows what he has in store!
The holder of the all-time Interception Record in franchise history, Cornerback, Bobby Boyd was a converted Quarterback who adapted well to the defensive side of the ball.  Boyd would accumulate 9 Interceptions in a season twice and six times would exceed 100 Yards in Interception Return Yards.  The three time First Team All Pro is still in the top ten in that category all-time.
If this were a list based on charisma and personality, the legendary Art Donovan would be at the top.  Known for one generation for his radio show and David Letterman appearances, another generation knew him for his excellent defensive play and “Bulldog” like tendencies.  Donovan was actually a member of the first version of the Baltimore Colts that folded in 1950, and then the New York Yanks, which folded the following year.  Coincidentally, it happened again as he signed with the Dallas Texans in 1952, which would make him the only player in NFL history to play for three teams in three years that all went out of business (though the new Baltimore Colts bought all the Texans’ assets, which was how he came to Baltimore a second time.)
