Although he has just retired a couple of seasons ago, Gary Grease is probably a 2nd or 3rd ballot candidate to go into the Hall of Fame. With 750 games played he has had a career that is quite good in longevity, with 379 points he is above 0.5 PPG which for defensive defensemen is pretty good! He is also 37th all-time in hits delivered which is quite something considering how much fewer games he had compared to the rest of the members with higher hit counts, took a lesser 785 PIMs and 685 hits in return and was a minute muncher especially for the Jets in his later careers. With a positive (albeit by 1) plus-minus rating, Grease was able to provide value to teams that weren't necessarily that good, and was a great voice in the locker room as well. The member behind Gary Grease would be a welcome addition to any locker room and provided valuable mentorship.
