Saku Koivu, who was on board when Finland won the World Championships for the first time in 1995, has been left out. Koivu had himself decided not to go to Sochi because he did not believe he was in good enough shape for an Olympic tournament. He had suffered concussion in October and was out of action for a month following the injury.

Merci Stinger...I will no longer wish death upon Team Finland organizers...

Which one is that? Gallagher or Malakhov?

Although Malakhov was with the habs for 283 games, he might've played only in 80 of them...

...and he's one of your favorite players?

I always hated "Le ténébreux"

I Just feel bad for Sprague Cleghorn whom you bumped for Gallagher.

Look at that list again...all small heart and guts players...then there's Malakhov...all the talent in the world...size...and no heart...LOL...

I don't know why, but I really liked him.

Even you have to understand, there's more to the Rocket than just having seen him play...

Galchenyuk??!!!

Seems that all these years as a Habs fan have developed a twisted love for disappointment in you.

I have (frank)ed up knees and go skiing with my 4 year old...doesn't make the front page of Journal de Montreal...

Stéphane Richer actuellement en entrevue à Arcand 98.5... Ce gars là n'a pas l'air bien. Pas du tout.

ça me rapelle la fois où José Théodore s'était blessé et que Michel Villeneuve avait mis une caméra cachée devant chez eux pour voir s'il était vraiment blessé, ou quelque chose de même.

Hystérie totale.

ah, tu vois, lui je l'ai jamais aimé

NOTE: left intentionally vague...

Everyone likes Teemu...but he's not enough to get me rooting for a team. Saku was...and the fact that people unfairly took poops on the guy made me love him even more.

To this day, he's one of my favorite habs of all time...top 5...which consists of:

Rocket, Koivu, Naslund, Gallagher and (this one is inexplicable, but still...) Malakhov.
