Sophomore Jinx Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Peter Schaefer. Used to sit on the bench looking completely disinterested, with that weird, impossible curve in his stick blade. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Posted December 9, 2023 Author Share Posted December 9, 2023 This guy shouldn't count because he was so uniquely bad and not merely average or generic. He was so bad that Nonis had to buy him out in his 2nd year on a 1 million dollar deal. Marc Chouinard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He played 16 games in 2011 according to DB and I did not recognize him or his name at all. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Curmudgeon Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Eddie Hatoum. Claimed in the expansion draft from Detroit in June 1970. Played 26 games as a Canuck, scoring one goal and adding three assists and a -14 +/-. In 1971 he was traded along with Jim Wiste to the Seattle Totems of the minor pro Western Hockey League in exchange for Bobby Schmautz. I have never before found another trade between an NHL team and a minor pro league. Neither Wiste nor Hatoum ever played another NHL game, while Schmautz played 764 games, scoring 271 goals and 283 assists. Hatoum is also the only NHL player born in Beirut, Lebanon. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My pick is Darren Langdon. Not sure how this managed to have a 521 game career in the NHL. Most random guy that did nothing 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another one maybe even less exceptional... Taylor Pyatt Pyatt was a solid player and had a tragic personal story. Bernier was a pretty funny French guy with infamous hands of stone. Best examples are cheap, low-profile players who were neither good nor bad, and didn't play for long. Jack Skille. Philip Larsen. Marc-André Gragnani, Oscar Fantenberg, Tyler Graovac... 1 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
4petesake Posted December 9, 2023 Share Posted December 9, 2023 Josh Holden, 12 OA pick in ‘96 who was a good goal-scorer in junior but never panned out in the NHL. Had 13 pts in 46 games over 3 years then had cups of coffee in Toronto & Carolina before heading off to Europe. Boring because you always hoped for more from him. Random but def not boring - Derek Sanderson. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
