Mike Sillinger
Mike Sillinger is a player known for his journeyman career in the NHL. Over the course of his tenure in the league, Sillinger earned the unique distinction of playing for a record 12 different NHL teams, the most by any player in league history. This constant movement earned him the nickname of the “NHL’s most traded player.”
Sillinger started his NHL career after being drafted 11th overall by the Detroit Red Wings in the 1989 NHL Entry Draft. While he showcased skill and versatility as a center, he frequently found himself on the move, transitioning between teams either through trades or free agency.
Despite the frequent relocations, Sillinger was consistently productive wherever he played. Over his 1,049 NHL games, he accumulated 548 points, proving his value as a reliable two-way forward.
Chris Pronger
Chris Pronger was selected 2nd overall by the Hartford Whalers in the 1993 NHL Entry Draft. Pronger was one of the premier defensemen in the league during his career. He played for the Whalers, Blues, Oilers, Ducks, and Flyers.
Pronger’s career highlights include winning the Hart Trophy (MVP) and Norris Trophy (best defenseman) in the 1999-2000 season, a rare accomplishment for a defenseman. He also won a Stanley Cup with the Anaheim Ducks in 2007.
He was named to the NHL All-Star Team four times. Internationally, Pronger won gold medals with Team Canada at the 2002 and 2010 Winter Olympics. His impact on the game led to his induction into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2015. He remains one of the most respected and influential defensemen in the history of the NHL.
