Top Ten American Born Hockey Players

A born leader who put the team first, a reason why he led the Stars to a Stanley Cup in 99. The is a natural scorer who was a great defender as well. His durability and consistancy over a long and prosperous career makes him the greatest American born player, and even one of the better players, ever to take the ice in the NHL. Although he is now a Red Wing, Modano will always be the face of the Stars franchise. We miss you Mike, you'll always be a Star in my eyes.

I live in Dallas and my first NHL game -was Madanos first Hatrick plus one! What a wonder to watch! Love this guy.

Most dynamic American born player to play the game. Scored 148 points in the 92-93 season for the Buffalo Sabres. Part of the famous Miracle on Ice gold medal team in 1980.

"3 time Norris Trophy Winner" Been playing for over 20 years and still going!!

great offensive defenseman that was a quality defenseman from his rookie year, through the end of his career. 9 time all star, 2 time calder trophy winner, and the only american born player to win the conn smythe.

Jeremy is speed player is USA, have good bodylifting and style play.

Jeremy Roenick is best players, I know he is lucky every game and I have good tee to supporting all players like this teespring.com/bornlucky

He's THE reason why Team U.S.A. had a prayer at gold in the 2012 Olympic hockey tournament. Not to mention the save (s) during 1994 Stanley Cup finals. Perennially underrated during his career b/c he played in probably the NHL's golden age of goaltenders (i.E., Hasek, Roy, Belfour)

he's the only reason Buffalo can even compete -

Because he is a beast and go USA - Callahan87

First American to reach 1000 points

Outstanding goalie, first straight out of high school to NHL, Vezina, 2 cups, 18 year career. Many memories

He's the American version of Wayne gretzky

Agreed
