USA Hockey has named five new members of its Hall of Fame, who will be inducted at a ceremony in Washington on 30 November.
The Washington ceremony will induct Phil Kessel, who holds the NHL record for consecutive games played at 1,064, alongside T.J. Oshie, Ryan Suter, his sister Amanda Kessel, and long-time strength and conditioning coach Stan Wong.
Kessel won the Stanley Cup three times, twice with Pittsburgh and once with Vegas, a career arc defined by durability and success.
Amanda Kessel, an Olympic champion and a four-time world champion with the US women's team, is inducted alongside her brother.
Oshie won the Stanley Cup with Washington, while Suter played 1,526 regular-season matches, second among American-born defencemen behind only Chris Chelios. Wong has worked with US national teams at Olympic, world championship and world junior level since 2002, shaping the national program.
