Phoenix Coyotes‘ 2006 7th round draft pick (#196 overall) center Benn Ferriero(21) never played a game for the team, but instead was signed by San Jose Sharks as a free agent in 2009 and has played in 59 NHL contests registering 8 goals and 7 assists.
His most recent might have been one of the sweetest in his 3-year pro career (getting a goal in the Stanley Cup Playoffs on his birthday probably ranks up there too) but last weekend he got the game-winner at the TD Garden vs. the Bruins.
In this rink the Boston native played many a Beanpot game in throughout his 4-year Boston College Eagles’ hockey days.
