[Dr Pepper]

Connor McDavid
Jeff O'Neill
Mike Cammalleri
Sam Bennett

I also went to high school with Dan Carcillo, although he was a year my junior. His older brother was just as classy as he is.

Fair enough lol, depending where you are, it's probably closer to London than Alymer

 

[sabresEH]

I'll just list all the places I've lived.

Victoria, BC - Probably Jamie Benn by quite a bit.
Richmond, BC - Brent Seabrook
Burnaby, BC - Joe Sakic
Surrey, BC - Is there anyone outside of Khaira?
Kelowna, BC - Schultz?
Estevan, SK - Atcheynum
Moose Jaw, SK - Clark Gillies.

Schultz is technically West Kelowna. He played for their minor system growing up and played his Jr.A hockey there.

Kelowna would have Josh Gorges as their best. Kyle Beach would be another notable although I don't think he ever played an NHL game.

Phil Esposito, Tony Esposito, and Ron Francis.

How could you forget about Jerry Korab, Chico Maki, and Marty Turco?!? Also coaches Paul Maurice, Lou Nanne and one-time San Jose coach Jim Wiley. I'm actually not sure what's better. Who is from the Soo or who played in the Soo.

[La Masse]

Hull

Derrick Brassard
Jean-Gabriel Pageau

Gatineau

Former: Daniel Briere,Alexandre Picard and Steve Martins haha

I know. Korab and Maki are actually the 3rd and 4th highest scorers ever from here.

 

[Laineux]

Jari Kurri

 

[Nithoniniel]

That would be this guy: Max Friberg.

Though Anton Strålman comes very close. Born on the wrong side of the ditch.

 

[DFAC]

Coquitlam, BC - Mat Barzal

 

[Eternal Leaf]

Tavares and Spezza.

 

[ColbyChaos]

Chicago: Chris Chelios best American player ever (Kane takes that title when he retires)

Current: probably Craig Anderson, Hartman, and Hinostroza nothing really jaw dropping to write home about right now with Anderson likely declining

 

[ek93]

Jerry D'Amigo

 

[IceBoxHockey]

Neil Sheehy

 

[Tall Morty]

My current city was already listed, but I grew up in Oshawa, so Joe Nieuwendyk.

 

[Kaners Bald Spot]

Nobody from my hometown made it to the NHL,, but Ryan Hartman and Vince Hinostroza are the closest I get, as they are from the towns just north and east of me. One of the guys in my social group played in the OJHL for a season. That is the closest anyone from my hometown has gotten to the pros that I know of.

Kurri
Selänne
