Notes:
Waite was one of the top NHL goaltending prospects of the early '90s.  His biggest problem was that two of the guys above him on that list were Eddie Belfour and Dominik Hasek.  And both of them were also above him on the Chicago Blackhawks depth chart.  He shuffled between the NHL, IHL, and AHL for the duration of the '90s, spending most of his time in the Blackhawks system.  He then spent the entire oughts decade playing in Germany before finally retiring in 2010.
