Val Fonteyne

Mailed out: December 9, 2014
Returned: December 15, 2014
Time in transit: 6 days
c/o home

My fastest return thus far is Wetaskiwin, Alberta native Val Fonteyne. Fonteyne suited up for the National Hockey Leagues Red Wings, Rangers, and Penguins, then left the NHL for the rival World Hockey Associations Edmonton Oilers to finish up his career. Known as one of the cleanest NHL players for his time Fonteyne only racked up 26 PIM in 820 games over 13 years. He continued this trend in the WHA playing in 149 games, receiving only two minor penalties; even odder he never had a fighting penalty.
