Brother: Phil Lecavalier

Drafted 1st overall in 1998, Lecavalier didn't take long to become a star for the Lightning, leading the team with 25 goals and 67 points in just his 2nd NHL season. A few years later, the 6'4 center helped the Bolts win their first Stanley Cup. Over his 17-year career, the 4x All-Star won a Maurice Richard, King Clancy, and NHL Foundation Player Award, as well as World Cup gold. Vinny retired in 2016 with 421 goals and 528 assists.
