How many current NHL veterans?

I am going with over 30 , therefore 31 or more.

By my count there are 19 total. Dallas Det and NJD lead with three each and 8 combined cups recently- probably not coincidence

Anaheim- none over 30

Atlanta none

Boston Tim Thomas is the only one who qualifies on age although age is there 223 games is hardley veteran

Buffalo- none. Tallinder will qualify in Jan when he turns 31

Carolina- one Niclas Wallin

Calgary- one in Iginla but he was a Dallas draft pick and traded before every playing a NHL game

Columbus none

Colorado Milan Hejduk

Dallas Modano, lehtinen, Turco and Morrow is close at 30

Det Datsyuk, Holmstrom, and Lidstrom

Edm Fernando Pisani

FLA none

LA none

Minnisota None

Montreal None - markov is close at 30

Nashville none

NJD Brodeur,elias, collin white

NYI None

Rangers none

Ottawa alfredson and Phillips

Phoenix Shane doan

Philly none

pens none but you knew that.

San Jose Nabakov

St louis none

Tampa none

Toronto Kaberle

Vancouver none

Washington none

very very few.

I am going to rephrase your question to players who have played more than 10 years (to get rid of guys who played in other leagues for a long time) and are at least 30 years old

players rarely stay with the same team their whole career these days, which is absolutely ridiculous.

So here is a complete list of all active players who have played in the NHL at least 10 years for the same team and ae at least 30 years old:

Tomas Kaberle (11 years, Toronto)

Tomas Holmstron (13 years, Detroit)

Nik Lidstrom (18 years, Detroit)

Jarome Iginla (14 years, Calgary)

Milan Hejduk (11 years, Colorado)

Jere Lehtinen (14 years, Dallas)

Mike Modano (21 years, Minnesota/Dallas) - Minnesota moved to Dallas in 1993

Brenden Morrow (10 years, Dallas)

Patrick Marleau (12 years, San Jose)

Evgeni Nabokov (10 years, San Jose)

Patrik Elias (14 years, New Jersey)

Jay Pandolfo (13 years, New Jersey)

Colin White (10 years, New Jersey)

Martin Brodeur (17 years, New Jersey)

Daniel Alfredsson (14 years, Ottawa)

Chris Phillips (12 years, Ottawa)

So that is only 16 players in the entire NHL. Not many at all. And only 3 of them have played 15 years for one team

Sorry, if I do a dream team it is going to contain 2 goalies, 6 defensemen, and 12 forwards. Goalies Starter: Evgeni Nabokov - He has great reflexes and could make the astounding saves interior the grasp. back-up: Johan Hedberg - Why? reason he's my sought after goalie, it particularly is my dream team... D-adult adult males 1st Line: Nicklas Lindstrom & Chris Pronger - 2 veteran defensemen who can close down the a number of maximum suitable interior the league. 2d Line: Dan Boyle & Mike green - particularly a powerhouse line who's in elementary terms activity is to get the %. into the internet, yet Dan Boyle additionally performs a sound shielding activity on ideal of each and everything. third Line: Douglas Murry & Jan Hedja - Quiet the pair in case you inquire from me, Murry brings the actual presence to the activity, and Hedja will save the %. out of the internet jointly as on the ice. Forwards 1st Line: Ilya Kovalchuck - Sidney Crosby - Alexander Ovechkin - they may be unstoppable, face it a play maker like Crosby dishing off to 2 of the ideal scores interior the league... a goalies worst nightmare come genuine. 2d Line: Dany Heatley - Joe Thornton - Patrick Marleau - the 1st line in San Jose with the ideal help guy interior the league and a couple of of the ideal 10 scores, why would you narrow up those 3 up? third Line: Rick Nash - Marc Savard - Marian Gaborik - With over 60+ assists interior the final 4 seasons a guy like Savard would be suited thus to feed a speed-guy like Gaborik or Nash. seize Nash or Gaborik on a breakaway and study it a objective. 4th Line: Dustin Brown - Mike Fischer - Derek Dorsett - i'm specific the 1st subject you think of once you notice this line is... Dorsett WTF? No no longer in elementary terms because of the fact i'm a CBJ fan, truthfully you won't be able to tell me Dorsett isn't a fighter that's what each and every team desires a minimum of one in each and every of. Plus you have Dustin Brown and Mike Fischer alongside with being 2 of the leagues ideal hitters they might produce on offense, think of Dorsett won't be able to maintain up? think of back, watch a Jackets activity in case you do not have self assurance me, he would possibly no longer get as a lot ice time as all people else, yet while he's available he makes it count selection.

a lot
