That's 6 teams he would NOT go to in the limited NTC

He holds the fourth-longest consecutive games played streak in NHL history (829) and hasn't missed a game in his NHL career since entering the league with the Edmonton Oilers in 2007-08.
The left winger is one of the most underrated players in the game, and he's been playing on Anaheim's second line alongside Ryan Kesler and Jakob Silfverberg this season.
