About this puzzle
Playing Career Path in the NHL
NHL rosters turn over through trades and free agency same as the other leagues, but a meaningful share of a career path can happen before a player ever appears in Statzle's data -- international leagues and junior systems feed the NHL in a way that doesn't always leave an early North American team on the record. Focus on the stops that are shown rather than assuming a short visible path means a short real career; it may just mean the player's early years were spent somewhere this puzzle doesn't track.
