Notes:
Keith Acton had the misfortune of coming to Minnesota in the Bobby Smith trade. As beloved as Bobby was to North Stars fans, the trade was hard to swallow. Eventually Acton was able to win over the Met Center faithful with his hard-nosed, pesky ways. A tenacious defender, he was the man called on to get under the opponent's skin. He was traded to Edmonton midway through the 1987-88 season and won the Stanley Cup with the Oilers that season. He is now an assistant coach for the Toronto Maple Leafs.
