Mark is now in his 21^st season in the NHL and still going strong. Although he has no major individual awards to his name, Recchi has been an All-Star eight times and has been on two Stanley Cup winning teams. His first Cup came with the Pittsburgh Penguins in 1991 and his second came fifteen years later with the Carolina Hurricanes.
