The NHL has lost 2,024 games spanning three lockouts since 1994.
Fourteen players -- Jason Arnott, Adrian Aucoin, Martin Brodeur, Sergei Gonchar, Roman Hamrlik, Jaromir Jagr, Nikolai Khabibulin, Sean O'Donnell, Brian Rolston, Teemu Selanne, Ray Whitney, Jamie Langenbrunner, Ryan Smyth and Chris Pronger -- were part of all three, although Langenbrunner and Smyth only played a smattering of games in 1993-94 and Pronger's career is likely over because of a concussion. Jagr even took part in a fourth work stoppage -- a 10-day, 1992 strike.

The Wild’s Brock Faber played in the 2022 Games in Beijing when he was still at the University of Minnesota and NHL players stayed at home. In 2026, he’s back.
