[edit] Playing career
Guerin has played for the Dallas Stars, and Boston Bruins, the Edmonton Oilers, St. Louis Blues and the New Jersey Devils. He won a Stanley Cup with New Jersey in 1995, and was drafted in 1989 by the Devils.
After a 41-goal season in 2001-02, Guerin, a free-agent, signed a 5-year contract with the Dallas Stars.[1]
After a disappointingly underperforming season with Dallas in 2005 as their second highest paid player, Guerin was signed by the Blues on July 3, 2006.[2] Playing on on a line with former Team USA teammate Doug Weight, Guerin has revived his career, easily eclipsing his disappointing goal-scoring mark from the 2005-2006 season. He was named to the 2007 All-Star game to represent the Blues.
On February 2nd, 2007, Guerin became the 214th NHL player to play in 1,000 games.[3]
On February 27, 2007, Guerin was traded to the San Jose Sharks.[4] for Ville Nieminen, prospect Jay Barriball, and a conditional first-round pick (Either New Jersey's in 2007 or San Jose's in 2008).
