Eric Lindros (Not exactly a bust, but never came close to living up to the hype)
Alexander Volchkov
Theo Fleury

I would personaly like to thank Eric Lindros for refusing to be drafted by the Quebec Nordiques. If it wasn't for him refusing to go there, Quebec wouldn't have drafted Peter Forsberg. Now look what has happened. Quebec moved to Colorado, won two Stanley Cups and Eric doesn't have one.

Leave my boy Shawn Respect alone

Big Daddy, Dan Wilkenson. Another Buckeye bust. He was over there with that punk from 'Bama, Johnny Copeland. Both couldn't make a tackle if Jeff George were laying on the field waiting to be tackled.
