#16 – FORWARD, JAMIE LANGENBRUNNER

With over 1,100 NHL games played, Jamie Langenbrunner never ceased to instill two-way leadership, reliability, and timely goal-scoring for the Stars during their Stanley Cup contention years.

The right-shooting winger from Colquet, Minnesota was instrumental in the Stars’ widespread success in the late 90s, including their Cup run in 1999, where Langenbrunner tallied ten goals and seven assists in 23 playoff games.

Langenbrunner sits at 11th in Stars franchise goals and 12th in overall points (253), but it’s likely those heroic postseason performances we remember most from the 35th overall pick in 1993. Notably, it was Langenbrunner’s Game 7 goal against the stacked Colorado Avalanche in a booming Reunion Arena against Patrick Roy – perhaps the best goaltender of his generation – that solidified his place in Dallas Stars history.

As a Star, Langenbrunner netted 95 goals and a 158 goals, but sadly was traded to New Jersey in a package that included Joe Nieuwendyk for Jason Arnott and Randy McKay in the midst of the 2001-02 by Stars general manager Doug Armstrong. Langenbrunner later won the 2003 Stanley Cup with the Devils.

Langenbrunner, who had previously suited up for Team USA at the 1998 Olympics in Nagano, Japan, served as the squads captain in their silver medal run in Vancouver’s 2010 games.
