Ray Emery, Philadelphia Flyers

1st time Flyer from: 2009-10

After Philly:  The former “bad boy” was a reclamation project for the Flyers after a season of turmoil in the KHL.  Emery was good in his first tour of duty in Philly, but it was cut short by a debilitating hip injury that was nearly career-ending. After a stint in Anahim and a solid season as the backup for the Stanly Cup Champion Blackhawks in 2013, he was brought back to Philly as a cheap alternative to the Flyers’ long-time goaltending woes.

Teemu Selanne, Anaheim Ducks

1st time Duck: 1995-96 to 2000-01

After Anaheim:  Although he started his career with a Flash in Winnipeg with the original Jets, he made his biggest mark as a Duck.  In his first tour of duty he combined with Paul Kariya to form a potent 1-2 punch before he was dealt to San Jose.  After a couple of years in San Jose, he joined up again with Kariya and the duo signed for cheap in Colorado in an effort to win a Cup. That experiment didn’t work and coming out of the lockout (2004-05 edition) he was back in Anaheim, where he remains to this day, and will play out his last season in 2013-14.  He did get that Cup, in 2007 with the Ducks.
