Born June 6, 1965, in Comox, British Columbia, was Hockey Hall of Fame Right Wing Cam Neely. Neely played right wing for the Vancouver Canucks and Boston Bruins of the National Hockey League from 1983 to 1996. Those that knew him called him " Bam-Bam Cam", as he was one of the most dominant power forwards of his generation. Cam reached the fifty goal mark three times, played in five All-Star games, and was named the league's Second Team All-Star at right wing. At the time of this writing Neely is the Boston Bruins' all-time leading playoff goal scorer with 55. He ranks tenth in playoff points for Boston with 87. Neely was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2005. Neely moved on to become an executive for the Bruins after playing.

Selänne broke Mike Bossy's record of 53 goals by finishing the regular season with 76 goals for Winnipeg. He is also a six-time Olympian, with three bronze medals, and one silver. His NHL tenure included playing for the Winnipeg Jets and the Mighty Ducks of Anaheim. He also had a stint in Colorado with the Avalanche, and fought through some injury plagued seasons, but in 2007 he returned to the Ducks and helped them with the Stanley Cup.
Born November 2, 1921, in Winnipeg, Manitoba, was Hockey Hall of Fame Right Wing Bill Mosienko. This legend was a two-time NHL All-Star and won the 1944-45 Byng Award.
