1. Daniel Alfredsson
In the 1994 NHL Draft, the Senators held the third overall pick and selected Radek Bonk. While Bonk turned into a solid player for the Senators, it was the draft pick the Senators made 130 selections later that would turn into one of the biggest draft steals in NHL History.
That would be Daniel Alfredsson, who was taken 133rd overall. When people think of the Senators, one of the first players that comes to mind is Alfredsson.
Alfredsson would spend 17 seasons with the Senators and is the Senators all-time leader in goals with 426, assists with 682, and points with 1,108. Alfredsson won the 1996 Calder Trophy and made six All-Star Games appearances as a Senator.
Alfredsson served as Senators captain from 1999-2013. In 2007, Alfredsson led the Senators to the 2007 Stanley Cup Finals. In the 2005-06 season, Alfredsson recorded a career-high 103 points in a single season.
The Hockey Hall of Famer had his number 11 retired by the Senators in December 2016. Not many would've expected the Senators to select an all-time player with the 133rd overall pick in 1994, but the Senators did with Alfredsson.
