context_page_description: The following is a list of retired National Hockey League players who played their entire NHL career—in at least ten seasons—exclusively for one team. As of the end of the 2018–19 season, 115 players have accomplished this feat, of which the Montreal Canadiens have had the most, with 19. Of players who have spent their career with one franchise, Alex Delvecchio of the Detroit Red Wings holds the record of the greatest number of seasons with 24. Daniel and Henrik Sedin of the Vancouver Canucks, plus Henrik Zetterberg of the Red Wings, are the most recent players to complete a full career with one team.
