Craig Janney
Craig H. Janney ( born September 26, 1967 in Hartford, Connecticut ) is a retired American professional ice hockey player who from 1987 to 1999 for the Boston Bruins, St. Louis Blues, San Jose Sharks, Winnipeg Jets and Phoenix Coyotes, Tampa Bay Lightning and New York Islanders played in the National Hockey League.
Career
As a junior played for the Boston College in the NCAA and could make the scouts the Bruins attention to themselves there. NHL Entry Draft 1986, he was selected by the Boston Bruins in the first round as the 13th. In the coming season he showed with 83 scorer points in 37 games, which is why the Bruins had taken him so early in the draft. In the 1987/88 season he has only been used 15 times and brought it to 16 points. In the coming season he had prevailed in the NHL and carried it always with more points than games. When the Bruins wanted to get Adam Oates from the St. Louis Blues in early 1992, Janney was the price one had to pay. In the 1992/93 season he played in St. Louis as a center with Brett Hull and Brendan Shanahan and could achieve the only time in his career, more than 100 points scorer in a single season.
Shortly after the late start of the season 1994/95 he moved to the San Jose Sharks but already the end of the following season went on his journey to the Winnipeg Jets. With these he then moved to Phoenix, where he played two more years.
