Players Who Won't Go Away...

[ESH]

Winner.

I didn't even believe you, I had to google it. Eric Boulton somehow played in the NHL this season. If you told me he hadn't played in the league since like 2008 I would have believed you.


Almost every other answer in this thread is terrible, by the way.

Hahaha oh man, has a career 4th-liner/13th forward ever played for this long?

 

[Skobel24]

Nick Kypreos, Kelly Hrudey, Glenn Healy, John Garrett and Mike Milbury.

So ****ing true.

 

[tacogeoff]

Thorburn/Stuart.

 

[JAS 39 Gripen]

50% of the Red Wings lineup

 

[Styles]

Michal Rozsival

 

[hagelin1381]

Chris Kelly.. Just an awful player.. Same with Chris Neil

 

[HitoftheMillennium*]

Chris Kelly.. Just an awful player.. Same with Chris Neil

I thought Kelly was a good bottom six guy a decade ago and as recently as about five years ago. Now he's just... there.


Never been a Neil fan.

Yeah Neil has never been very good at all.. Not sure how he played 1000 games.. Kelly was a good bottom sixer.. Wheels fell off towards the end of his time with the Bruins, he's only gotten worse since, brutal to watch

Chris Kelly.. Just an awful player.. Same with Chris Neil

Kelly is an ok 4th liner still.

Can't say the same about Neil.

 

[Boomstick]

Dennis Wideman
Partially because of him assaulting an official, but he is so freaking slow and he's just not very good anymore.

 

[blundluntman]

As an Avs fan, this question is triggering. Gonna go with Colbourne or Bourque.

 

[TNT87]

Thorburn/Stuart.

I remember Thorburn when he was with the Penguins. I still can't believe he's still playing in the NHL.

 

[Stephen23]

He had quite the year, but I am still impressed by Lee Stempniak's longevity 10 teams later. Same with Dominic Moore (Also 10 teams in).

 

[Styles]

Finally gets a two year deal. Might be picked by Vegas haha.

 

[GoAwayDanCleary]

50% of the Red Wings lineup

Beat me to it.

 

[RDTBay4]

Crosby

 

[Fixxer]

....

 

[Lays]

damn it

you beat me to it

He also beat me to it too was the first name that popped into mind when I read the title

 

[TeddyBare]

Dan Girardi.

It just blows my mind that they haven't bought him out. Every off-season I keep thinking the buyout is coming but nope.

And yes HE IS THAT BAD.

 

[jetsforever]

Thorburn on the Jets has played 750 career games

Actually the Jets have a habit of keeping around bad bottom sixers that other teams would send to the AHL (Wright, Peluso, Tangradi, etc.)
