Mark Messier

Hockey Hall of Famer Mark Messier is one of the greatest players in the history of the NHL and is a leading ice hockey analyst for ESPN’s NHL coverage, joining the ESPN broadcast team back in 2021. Messier’s achievements over the entirety of his 26-year NHL career are astounding: six Stanley Cup championships, 1887 points scored, placing him third on the all-time NHL list (behind only Wayne Gretzky and Jaromir Jagr), two Hart Memorial trophies as the league’s Most Valuable Player and his standing as the only professional athlete ever to captain two different franchises – the Edmonton Oilers and the New York Rangers – to championships.
 
Mark Messier’s post-career honors are numerous and ongoing. He created the Mark Messier Foundation, established with a mission to help young children become better citizens by providing opportunities to participate in sporting activities and live a healthier lifestyle.

In October 2021, Messier released his book, No One Wins Alone.
