Andrew Ladd

Andrew Ladd had a nice career in the National Hockey League, where the Left Wing played for 16 years and played 1,001 Games.

Ladd was taken fourth overall in the 2004 NHL Draft by the Carolina Hurricanes and later had six years where he scored over 45 Points.  He also played for Chicago, Atlanta, Winnipeg, the New York Islanders and Arizona and had a career with 550 Points. 

16. Andrew Ladd

Traded after he won a Stanley Cup for the Chicago Blackhawks (he also won one with the Carolina Hurricanes), Andrew Ladd would become one of the major offensive weapons for the Thrashers/Jets and was quickly named the team Captain.  Ladd would score 20 Goals four times and would probably have had a fifth had he not been traded back to Chicago during the 2015/16 season.
