1. Phil Kessel
Phil Kessel is first up on our list. Kessel is a two-time Stanley Cup Champion who played last season for the Arizona Coyotes. He has an iron man streak of 982, the longest streak currently in the league as the next closest active player is Brent Burns with 679 games.
Kessel should pass Keith Yandle whose streak ended on March 29 of this past season when Yandle was scratched by the Philadelphia Flyers by then-interim coach Mike Yeo. The decision was interesting to say the least as Yandle had the longest streak in the league up to that point.
Kessel has brought the league some very memorable moments over the course of his career, and he has been involved in some pretty big trades through the years like the trade that sent him to Toronto from Boston as well as the deal that brought him to Pittsburgh from Toronto.
Kesel still has some good hockey ahead of him, and considering he is a free agent hopefully it is on a different team than the Coyotes.
