Comments
The list includes only regular-season games and does not include playoff games. Dupuis has 911 regular-season games and 87 playoff games with the Komets.
IMO...#2 needs to be hung from the rafters after he hangs 'em up.
There's no doubt about it, #2 will hang from the rafters and rightfully so
Former Komet coach Ralph Keller on the list also.
I agree that #2 is a sure thing for the rafters. Not only for his play but for his community involvement too.
Does the games include the European Leagues? If not than Guy has played more games then are listed.
No it does not.
Guy is truly a gentleman in all respects.
