EDMONTON – Gone, but not forgotten.

When a player moves on to a new organization, fans often keep tabs on them to see how they are doing.

Former Edmonton Oilers defender Cody Ceci is no different.

Ceci has had an interesting season. In the summer, he was traded to the San Jose Sharks. After playing 54 games there, he would then be traded to the Dallas Stars. Ceci would play another 31 games there.

Which gives him 85 games played this year.

Ceci becomes one of seven players to play more than 82 games this season. Brandon Carlo, Mikael Granlund, Charlie Coyle, Drew O’Connor, Fabian Zetterlund, and Will Borgen all played 83 games or more this year. But Ceci was the only one to play 85.

He joins an exclusive list, as only two players have ever played more games in a season. Jimmy Carson and Bob Kudelski hold the record of 86 games played in a single season.

Other players to have hit 85 games are Bill Guerin, Glenn Anderson, Mark Lamb, Rem Murray, Joe Reekie, and Tyson Barrie. Barrie was the last player to play 85 games in a season before Ceci made the achievement this year as well.

Ceci has been a consummate professional his whole career. Longevity is hard to come by, so it’s nice to see a former Oilers player be as durable as he has for the whole season.
