gold star for USAHOF

202. Phil Russell

One of the most physical players of his day (which says an awful lot!) Phil Russell was also a very capable playmaker.  One of the few players to play over 1,000 Games with 2,000 Penalty Minutes, Russell was a power play expert who knew how to use his strength and skill with equal proportions.  Russell scored 35 or more Points five times, and was a two-time All-Star with the Chicago Blackhawks along with a third one as a New Jersey Devil.
