NHL All-Time Top 100: #81–100

81. Henrik SedinVAN

The strongest remaining CV: 1 Hart Trophy (2010), 1 Art Ross (2010, 112 pts), and 1,070 career points in 1,330 games with 830 assists (30th all-time). Career Point Shares of 108.6, two First-Team All-Star selections (2010, 2011), and the 2011 playoff assist lead (19). HHOF Class of 2022; led the NHL in assists three times.

82. Bill CowleyBOS

Era-adjusted peak is staggering: 2 Hart Trophies (1941, 1943) and a 1941 NHL scoring title (64 pts) in a 549-game career. 4-time First-Team All-Star, 2 Stanley Cups (1939, 1941), and his 1943-44 PPG of 1.97 stood as the all-time NHL record until Wayne Gretzky finally surpassed it in 1980-81. War and injuries shortened his career — but the peak is unimpeachable.

83. Mats SundinTOR · QUE

564 goals, 1,349 points in 1,346 games, 8-time NHL All-Star, and franchise leader for Toronto in essentially every offensive category (420 G, 987 pts as a Leaf). Captained Sweden to 2006 Olympic gold. First European drafted #1 overall (1989); HHOF 2012. Knock is no Cups and no Hart, but the durability (20+ goals in his first 17 seasons) is elite.

84. Zdeno CháraBOS · OTT · WSH · NYI

Career Point Shares 155.1 — exceptional for a defenseman — with the NHL record for games played by a defenseman (1,680). 1 Norris (2009), 1 Stanley Cup (2011), 6-time NHL All-Star, Mark Messier Leadership Award, and led the NHL in defensive point shares (7.2) in 2009-10. HHOF Class of 2025 in his first year of eligibility. Tallest player in NHL history at 6’9”.

Tied Connor McDavid for the 2025 playoff scoring lead (33 pts in 22 games). Four consecutive 100-point seasons before injury cut 2025-26 to 97 pts in 65 games.

89. Larry MurphyPIT · DET · TOR · LAK · WSH · MIN

1,217 points in 1,615 games — at retirement, both ranked among the highest ever for a defenseman (3rd in points among D). 4 Stanley Cups (1991 & 1992 PIT, 1997 & 1998 DET). Larry Murphy’s 76 points in 1980-81 remain the most by a rookie defenseman playing a full season as a defenseman. HHOF 2004 in his first year of eligibility.

90. Auston MatthewsTOR

Peak-driven case: 1 Hart, 1 Ted Lindsay (2022), 1 Calder (2017), 3 Rocket Richards (2021, 2022, 2024) — only Ovechkin has matched his three Richard trophies since the award was introduced in 1999. 428 career goals in 689 GP as of 2025-26. His 69 goals in 2023-24 were the most in any season since Lemieux posted 69 in 1995-96. Hart finalist twice; 2025-26 cut short to 53 pts in 60 GP by MCL surgery.

92. Charlie ConacherTOR · NYA

Pre-WWII goal-scoring colossus: 2 Art Ross Trophies (1934, 1935), 5 NHL goal-scoring titles (1930-31, 1931-32, 1933-34, 1934-35, 1935-36), 1 Stanley Cup (1932), 3-time First-Team All-Star. HHOF 1961. A 0.486 career goals-per-game rate ranks 33rd all-time despite a short, injury-shortened career (461 GP).

93. Bill DurnanMTL

6 Vezina Trophies in 7 seasons (1944, 1945, 1946, 1947, 1949, 1950) — a peak goaltending dominance matched only by Plante and Hasek. 2 Stanley Cups (1944, 1946), 6-time First-Team All-Star, ambidextrous goaltender. Career was famously short (7 seasons) due to nerves, but trophy density makes him impossible to leave out.

Considered by Punch Imlach and Gordie Howe to be the best two-way center of the Original Six era. HHOF 1986.
