5 NHL players you forgot played for a certain team

#1. Bobby Orr, Chicago Blackhawks

Orr played his first 10 seasons in the NHL with the Bruins, but ended his career with Chicago. However, due to injuries, Orr only played in 26 games with Chicago, so most fans tend to forget about his time with the Blackhawks.

#2. Peter Forsberg, Nashville Predators

Peter Forsberg is best known for his time with the Colorado Avalanche.

Forsberg was a member of the Avalanche franchise for 11 seasons, with one year being at Quebec City before they relocated. However, he did spend parts of two seasons toward the later part of his career with the Philadelphia Flyers.

But, most people tend to forget that Forsberg played 17 games with the Nashville Predators as he was traded at the deadline. After those 17 games, he ended up signing with Colorado in free agency.

#3. Mats Sundin, Vancouver Canucks

Mats Sundin played one year with the Canucks

Mats Sundin is a legend with the Toronto Maple Leafs as he was their captain and played 13 seasons in Toronto.

Sundin was a fan-favorite but after the 2008 season, the Swede was a free agent and signed a two-year, $20 million deal with the Vancouver Canucks. It was a major surprise, but he ended up only playing 41 games with the team as he was injured for most of the 2008-09 season which caused his retirement.

#4. Martin Brodeur, St. Louis Blues

Martin Brodeur played 7 games with the Blues

Martin Brodeur is known as a New Jersey Devils legend as he won three Stanley Cups and spent 21 years with the team playing in 1,259 games.
