She played three seasons at the University of Minnesota, winning two championships.
Pavel Datsyuk: The Detroit Red Wings' 1998 seventh-round pick won Stanley Cup titles in 2002 and 2008. He was a stickhandling wizard and defensive standout who won three consecutive Selke trophies. He also won four consecutive Lady Byng trophies for sportsmanship, capturing both awards in 2007-08.
Jeremy Roenick: The nine-time All-Star finished with 1,216 points, fifth best in NHL history among Americans. In addition to his offensive skill, he played a hard-charging style on the ice. He even threw an occasional check at the All-Star Game. He was outspoken on league issues and moved into television after his retirement.
Shea Weber: The seven-time All-Star defenseman won the hardest shot competition four times. That shot helped him score 224 times. He played for the Nashville Predators and Montreal Canadiens and was captain of the Predators for six seasons before his trade to Montreal. He went to the Stanley Cup Final in his last season, was runner-up for the Norris Trophy twice and won Olympic gold for Canada in 2010 and 2014.

He created a centralized video review location called the "Situation Room" that has been copied by other leagues.
David Poile: He oversaw the Washington Capitals (14 playoff appearances in 15 seasons) and Predators for a combined 36 seasons.
