The 28 greatest Canadians to star in the NHL


[post_page_title]Mark Messier[/post_page_title]
The six-time Cup winner spent 25 seasons in the NHL, playing for the Oilers, Rangers and the Canuck. Oilers fans probably remember him best for his game-tying goal during Game 3 of the 1984 Cup Final. The Oilers would go on to win their first Cup in history, and the first of five in seven seasons. Messier won five of his six rings during those years, going on to win his sixth with the Rangers, after another heroic performance in Game 7. He wrapped up his career with 694 goals and 1887 points. He is a two-time Pearson Trophy winner, two-time Hart Trophy winner and was inducted into the Hall of Fame in 2007.
