He always sticks in my head because I remember, as a kid, seeing him having big numbers in the AHL and getting excited when got called up. But, nope.

Ranheim scored 68 goals in 75 games that year playing with Fleury in Salt Lake, but his game never translated to the NHL, though he had a decent, unspectacular big league career.

EDIT: I meant to add, guys like these are cautionary tales to keep expectations in check for a player like Pelletier. Fingers crossed, but it's still a big gulf from the A to the N.
