13 Years Ago Today: Blackhawks Ink Hossa to a Franchise Changing Contract

No. 81: Marian Hossa (RW, 2009-17)
Arguably the secret ingredient to the Blackhawks' dynasty era, Hossa was the perfect hockey player both on and off the ice. After falling short in the Stanley Cup Final in back-to-back seasons with Pittsburgh and Detroit, Hossa was one of the driving forces for the Blackhawks' three Stanley Cup titles in six years, and the team hasn't been the same since he left. Hossa will go down as one of the best two-way players in NHL history.
