    Think I might have figured out who the fifth gentleman is, though haven't confirmed it.
    If it is or isn't him, this guy certainly made a unique journey to reach the NHL.

    Not Esposito. First few years in Chicago hurt him.

    The fifth guy did have a unique journey so you may be on the right track.

    Further back for the guy I'm thinking of. Big thumbs up on catching the clue.

    To give the answer that Liut hinted at, it was Peter Stastny, who is on the short list for best player never to make an NHL post season All Star team.
