Paul Stastny.
Garrett Suter may be related to Ryan and Gary.

There's a ton.

Probably the best NHL bloodlines I've ever heard of belong to Blake Geoffrion (2006 NHL draft).

Father Danny was a 1st round NHL pick and played a few years in the NHL and WHA.

Paternal grandfather Bernie (Boom Boom) is in the Hall of Fame.

Maternal great-grandfather Howie (Stratford Streak) Morenz in in the Hall of Fame and is a Montreal Canadiens icon.

Having Boom boom Geoffrion and Howie Morenz as ancestors is definitely cool.

I think Paul Stastny is already American as well as his older brother Yan who plays in Germany for Nurnberg and have plaid for USA national team on German Cup for last two years.

He was born in St.Louis and plays college hockey here. I'm pretty sure he sees himself as an American.

One of the Hanson brothers has a son that is a draft prospect. I remeber reading it in the WHA book (sorry I'm housesitting and don't have it handy.) I want him in the NHL just for the constant stream of Slapshot quotes.

Stastny was probably born in Quebec and lists his hometown as St. Louis. He has represented the US at last years Viking Cup and was at the US WJC evaluation camp last August.

Christian Hanson is actually rated 52nd among North Americans in CSB's recent Mid-Terms. I've heard he was pretty good but I didn't expect him to be that high. He'll be playing at Notre Dame next year. Hanson

Forcaster has him listed as born in QC. I was going off of memory from the DU media gui

I don't know but I did hear he's bringing them to the draft so he and his dad have something to do while he's waiting to get picked.

Born in Canada, grew up in the USA, Slovakian background.

He's played for Slovakia in a 1985 tournament, but will continue playing for the US.
