This will top 1000 hits easy.


That Oilers guy shoulda been ranked #1 and the Leafs guy should be ranked last in all of Germany according to my own personal German ice hockey player rankings.



Rest is solid.

In regards to Holzer: I'm always curious as to why big strong guys can have weak shots...you'd think since they're physically capable to boom it, someone at some point would have worked on timing and technique with them...

It's a bit strange. Like Komisarek and Schenn, can hit and throw people but can't slap shot to save their life.

Or they can be little Kessel and use a little kids stick. It's pretty embarrassing, but I'm happy with the result. lol

He did once. I was talking more about a powerful shot (wrister) from a weak guy.

Other teams pick steals in late rounds too. It's not just the Oilers.

They can be 12'11 and weight 2000 lbs, but if they don't have alot of core strength, their shot blows. In this case, size DOESN'T matter.
