Taylor Hall Games Goals Assists Points
NHL Totals 126 49 46 95

Mike Cammalleri
Calgary Flames 109 50 51 101

Good Point you make

Blame Cloutier for that. I dont think he was voted onto the team by fans, but Richard put him there anyways.

I'd rather educate while creating the team...too easy to just throw together one paragraph and then a simple list. Why not list the top 12 players in each category and educate the younger fans on some of the legends while you're at it.

True, your actually one of the few bloggers giving info on each player which is great.

There's always going to be a bunch of people who just skip the blog and vote for Cammy, Roberts, etc. Basically the only players they know.

ya riser is a good one as well. and if you factor in his days coaching it adds to his value.


Are we voting on coaches as well?

- numbear



Riser was a great fiesty player, loved his style.

Brutal coach, and dont even go to his GMing position. For his body of GMing work his name and memory should be forever banished from Calgary Flames history.

No love for Huselius? He did beat out Tangs for 1st line LW while he was here.. He's also far more talented than Paul Ranheim. I wouldn't vote him into the top four but he deserves to be on the list.

Especially Chouinard. His current vote total is a travesty.

- Ice_Hawk


Yeah, he played both but did primarily play the right wing...but as the coach, I wanted to balance my lines a little better

although good.

none of those are close to iggy, loob, lanny, and fleury in numbers and what they gave to the team (3 of them were captains). 3 (not sure of loob) were 50+ goal scorers. If those 4 aren't in I'll have to shake someone like the baby I never had.

Stern was a fan favorite (I liked him), same with Plett.
Bure was a bright moment in a crappy time.

Loob had 50 goals and 56 assists in the 87-88 season.

Cool thanks...I wasn't positive on that one


So basically if iggy/lanny/loob/fleury don't win by a landslide....I have no idea what to think

I thought loob played on the left more then Mullen myself. But it works either way

Point is, with the list of LW that were available, and the list of RW's....I figured I'd throw a name or two on each side to balance things out. But again, this roster is entirely up to you guys, so let me know if you'd rather something different.
