5 sets of NHL brothers who played together on the same team.

For these NHL brothers, talent on the ice runs in the family.

Starting off this list is the Sutter brothers.

Although there are seven brothers in the family, only six of them played in the NHL: Brent, Brian, Ron, Duane, Rich, and Darryl.

At some point, all six Sutter brothers played for either the Chicago Blackhawks or the St. Louis Blues.

Six Stanley Cups were won by the brothers as players, including in 1982 and 1983, when Duane and Brent played together on the Islanders for championship wins.

Both Scott and Rob Niedermayer achieved success in the NHL, with their shared success coming while playing together on the same team.

In 2007, they won the Stanley Cup while playing together for the Anaheim Ducks.

Despite having grown up together, Scott and Rob have revealed that the NHL has brought them even closer.

"Scott revealed some new information about him in 2007, according to The Hockey News. He gained a better understanding of him."

In the dressing room, I noticed him being more talkative and fun-loving than usual. He mentioned that this was a new area for him.

Before becoming teammates, they spent many years apart.

"Since we were 15 or 16, we went our separate ways during hockey season, only reuniting briefly in the summer, as per The Hockey News."

There are four Staal brothers: Eric, Marc, Jordan and Jared.

Multiple Sutter brothers have played for the Carolina Hurricanes.

In 2003, Eric was drafted by the Hurricanes and won the Stanley Cup with the team in 2006. In 2013, Eric, Jordan, and Jared all played for the team.

In 2016, Eric played for the New York Rangers and was joined by his brother Marc. The two brothers also played together for the Florida Panthers.

As of the 2024-2025 season, Jordan is the only brother remaining in the NHL and holds the title of captain for the Hurricanes.

The Richard brothers spent several years together as teammates.

From 1942 to 1960, Rocket, whose nickname was "Rocket," played his entire professional hockey career with the Montreal Canadiens.

In 1955, Henri, the younger brother known as "Pocket Rocket," joined the Canadiens with his sibling. During his career, Henri won a record 11 Stanley Cups, the most of any player, according to NHL Records. After the 1974-75 season, he retired from the league.

The Hughes brothers have taken the NHL by storm.

All three of the brothers were early picks in various NHL drafts.

In the 2021 NHL draft, the New Jersey Devils selected Luke as the fourth overall pick, making him the latest member of the trio to join the league.

In 2018, the oldest Hughes brother, Quinn, was picked seventh overall by the Vancouver Canucks in the NHL draft. In 2019, Jack was the first overall pick by the Devils.

In 2023, the three brothers experienced their first shared ice moment.

"Jack stated ahead of the game, as reported on the New Jersey Devils' website, that of course he dreams of playing in the NHL with his brothers one day. Although they are currently in the basement, hanging out and playing, they never truly believe it will become a reality. It's quite unexpected, he said, that three kids would be playing in the same game."

"I didn't anticipate this happening when we were kids, but it's amazing," Luke remarked. "Our parents' dedication is evident through their hard work, and so is ours. This is going to be a blast!"

"Of course, it's the dream," Quinn stated. "We probably discussed it as kids playing mini-sticks and such, but this year, everyone's concerned about their individual game and wants two points."

In 2024, the Hughes brothers made history as the first set of siblings to be featured on an EA Sports cover.

"NHL.com reported that Quinn expressed his immense gratitude for being on the cover of NHL 25. He stated that being included alongside his brothers in such a prestigious position was something he had always dreamed of as a child but never thought would become a reality."
