5. John Gould
Gould, a forward, played with the Buffalo Sabres on two different occasions. He played with the team from 1971-72 until 1973-74; then again during the 1979-1980 season.
Over the course of those years, Gould appeared in 92 games with the Buffalo Sabres. He racked up 14 goals, 12 assists and 26 points — and just 13 penalty minutes.
For the folks at home, that’s an average of roughly 0.14 penalty minutes per game.
Gould played elsewhere in his NHL career, including with the Atlanta Flames and Vancouver Canucks, and ultimately averaged 0.22 penalty minutes per game throughout his career.
