~Captained 3 NHL teams for a total of 17 years
~Playoff warrior who excelled in every acpect of the game
Like Gordie Howe, Messier is credited with being the most complete player of his generation. He was a two-way left winger who combined playmaking skills and a goal-scoring touch with the toughness necessary to thrive in the corners and excel at both ends of the ice.
Messier was a powerful skater renowned for his leadership abilities, had overwhelming power and size and an unpredictable mean streak.
#3 Pierre Pilote
~5'9-165, Shoots - L
~Stanley Cup Champion (1961) Retroactive winner of Conn Smythe Trophy
~Led all defencemen in playoff scoring three times (1961, 1963, 1964), and placed 2nd three times (1962, 1965, 1967)
~Norris Trophy winner three times (1963, 1964, 1965), Runner up three times (1962, 1966, 1967)
~1st All-Star Team five times (1963, 1964, 1965, 1966, 1967)
~2nd All-Star Team three times (1960, 1961, 1962)
~Highest scoring defenceman of the 1960's by 110 points

~Blackhawks team captain for seven seasons (1961-1968)
~Five season long iron man streak
~Inducted into the HHOF in 1975
Although he was a small man, Pilote was one of the most feared defensemen of Original Six hockey in the NHL. Pilote became renowned as a tough guy who should be avoided, a reputation enhanced when he knocked both Henri and Maurice Richard out cold during the same mix-up. Pilote was a superb defenseman at both ends of the ice. In his own zone he blocked shots fearlessly, but he also wasn't afraid to join the rush and he was a first-rate passer.
#9 Andy Bathgate
6'0-175, Shoots - R
~Stanley Cup champion in 1964
~Hart Trophy winner in 1959, runner up in 1958, 3rd in 1957, 5th in 1962
~1st All-Star team twice (1959, 1962)
~2nd All-Star team twice (1958, 1963)
~Top five in points nine times (1st, 2nd, 3rd, 3rd, 3rd, 4th, 4th, 4th, 5th)
~Top ten in goals seven times (3rd, 4th, 5th, 6th, 6th, 8th, 9th)
~Top five in playoff goals three times (1st, 5th, 5th)
~NHL captain for three seasons (1961-1964)
~Inducted into the HHOF in 1978
Andy Bathgate was a hockey stylist--an athletic, graceful skater who handled the puck with skill and flash. Known for his blazing, accurate shot, he was one of the first men to use the slapshot to overpower goaltenders. Bathgate was a creative playmaker on the ice and often did the unexpected, throwing off opposing defenders with imaginative feints and passes. Bathgate could play the physical game and was known as a fierce fighter when the occasion warranted it. Though truly an individualist on the ice and off, he always placed the team above his own accomplishments.
#1 Frank "Mr. Zero" Brimsek
~5'9-170, Catches - L
~Stanley Cup Champion twice (1939, 1941)
~Vezina Trophy winner twice (1939, 1942)
~Hart Trophy runner up in 1948, 3rd in 1942, 5th in 1943~1st All-Star Team twice (1939, 1942)
~2nd All-Star Team six times (1940, 1941, 1943, 1946, 1947, 1948)
~Calder Trophy winner (1939)
~Inducted into the HHOF in 1966
In a decade of NHL service, the accurately nicknamed Mr. Zero registered 40 shutouts and won 252 regular-season games. He led all netminders in shutouts, goals-against average and wins twice each, registered nine 20-win seasons, logged over 31,000minutes of ice time and he backstopped Boston to Stanley Cup wins in 1939 and 1941. During his rookie season Brimsek showed no sign of buckling under the pressure of replacing an NHL legend. In one of the greatest first-year performances ever, he was in goal for 33 Boston wins and topped the league with 10 shutouts and a 1.56 goals-against mark. In addition, he posted two shutout streaks of more than 200 minutes each.
#2 Walter "Babe" Pratt
~6'2-190, Shoots - L
~Stanley Cup Champion twice (1940, 1945)
~Hart Trophy winner (1944)
~1st All-Star Team (1944)
~2nd All-Star Team (1945)
~Highest scoring defenceman of the 1940's
~Set a record for most points in a season by a defencmen, a record that was held for 21 seasons
~Top six in scoring all but one year of his career (1st, 1st, 1st, 2nd, 2nd, 4th, 4th, 6th, 6th, 6th)
~Top three in playoff scoring by defencemen six times (1st, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 3rd, 3rd)
~Inducted into the HHOF in 1966
Walter "Babe" Pratt was a funny and outgoing man off the ice, keen on jokes and always good for a laugh, but he was considerably tougher with his hockey equipment on. Over a long career in leagues across North America, he proved consistently that the best defense is often a good offense. He was a defenseman who kept the puck deep in the other team's zone, sometimes deep in their net, and goalies on his squads could be sure their goals-against averages would drop when he was at his best. His leadership and ability are backed up by his remarkable winning record.
#14 Dave Keon
~5'9-163, Shoots - L
~Stanley Cup Champion four times (1962, 1963, 1964, 1967)
~Conn Smythe Trophy winner in 1967
~2nd All-Star Team twice (1962, 1971)
~Fourth in Hart Trophy voting in 1971
~Lady Byng Trophy winner twice (1962, 1963)
~Calder Trophy winner in 1961
~Top ten in goals three times (6th, 8th, 8th)
~Top ten in points twice (9th, 10th)
~Top ten in playoff goals three times (2nd, 2nd, 7th)
~Top ten in playoff points three times (3rd, 7th, 8th)
~NHL Captain for seven seasons
~Inducted into the HHOF in 1986
~#69 on THN top 100 players list
Dave Keon could be a dazzling offensive player, utilizing bursts of speed and deft moves around the net. He also had what is widely considered to be one of the best backhands in the game, a deceptive, often powerful shot that flummoxed opposing goaltenders. He used his agility to avoid opponents' hits and remained injury-free for much of his career. He also used his speed and maneuverability as a pesky penalty killer, covering a large portion of the ice and turning shorthanded situations into scoring chances for his own team. He was the Leafs' leading scorer in the 1963-64, 1966-67 and 1969-70 seasons, and the team's top goal scorer in 1970-71 and 1972-73. Keon was one of the fastest skaters in the NHL, and one of the best defensive forwards of his era. He would usually play against the opposing team's top centre, and developed a reputation for neutralizing some of the league's top scorers. In the 1967 Cup final, he shut down Jean Béliveau, the star centreman of the Montreal Canadiens, and was voted the most valuable player of the playoffs
#7 Rick Martin
~5'11-179, Shoots - L
~1st All-Star Team twice (1974, 1975)
~2nd All-Star Team twice (1976, 1977)
~Finished top ten in goals five times (2nd, 3rd, 6th, 7th, 10th)
~Finished top ten in poits twice (6th, 10th)
~Career average of 45 goals per 80 games
~Finished 5th in playoff goals and 7th in playoff points in 1975
Left-winger Rick Martin was a talented offensive player with speed and a lethal shot. The clever winger was among the NHL's top snipers and scored three goals for his country at the inaugural Canada Cup tournament in 1976. He was named to the NHL first and second all-star teams twice each and played in seven straight all-star games commencing in 1972.
#23 Bob Nystrom
~6'1-200, Shoots - R
~Stanley Cup Champion four times (1980, 1981, 1982, 1983, 1984)
~Seven 20 goal seasons
~Scored double digits in the playoffs four staright times (1980-1983)
~Finished 7th in goals and 11th in points in the 1980 playoffs
~Career +/- of +113
~Scored the Cup winning goal in 1980
~Money playoff performer
~His #23 retired by the New York Islanders
The quintessential money player, Bob Nystrom was a scrappy right-winger who had a propensity for scoring key goals and overtime winners. He was a scrappy competitor who battled hard in the corners and in front of the net. He reached the 20-goal mark seven times for New York and was considered one of the toughest players in the league. During the four-year dynasty Nystrom formed one of the league's hardest-working lines with Bourne and Wayne Merrick.
#14 Theoren Fleury
~5'6-190, Shoots - R
~Stanley Cup Champion in 1989
~2nd All-Star team 1995
~Led the first round of the playoffs in scoring three times
~Finished 5th in playoff points in 1999
~Finished 2nd in goals and 8th in points in 1991. Finished top 20 in goals and points two more times
~Nine 30+goals seasons, three 40+ goal seasons, one 50 goal season
~NHL Captain for two seasons (1995-1997)
~Led league in plus-minus in 1991
~Holds NHL record for most shorthanded goals in one game with 3
~Won Olympic Gold in 2002, Canada Cup Gold in 1991, World Cup Silver in 1996
~Played in All-Star game seven times
Intense and fearless, Fleury made a name for himself for more than his stature he could score, play defensively and lead teams to championships in junior hockey, in the NHL and on the international stage. He became a star for his offensive achievements and for his entertaining, all-out style of play. Though outspoken and often brash, aggravating opponents, Fleury matured in time, becoming team captain in 1995. He continued to pick up honors for his hard work, including a berth on the league's Second All-Star Team in 1995 and spots on Team Canada's roster at the 1996 World Cup of Hockey, the 1998 Nagano Olympics and later down the road Canada's Gold Medal Olympic Team in Salt Lake City.
#6 Ted Green
~5'11-185, Shoots - R
~Stanley Cup champion in 1972
~2nd All-Star Team in 1969
~Norris finalist in 1969
~Top three in scoring by defencemen three times (2nd, 3rd, 3rd)
~2nd in playoff scoring by defencemen in 1969
~7th highest scoring defenceman of the 1960's
~Four-time Avco World Trophy winner
Ted Green played ten seasons for Boston, gaining a reputation as a hard-hitting defensive defenseman and a solid enforcer who provided the club with crease-clearing spine and leadership during the lean years of the early sixties. He put in eight seasons in Boston, watching the team accumulate an increasing number of Stanley Cup pieces when he suffered one of the more serious injuries in NHL history. Green's skull was fractured as the result of a stick-swinging duel with Wayne Maki of the St. Louis Blues during a pre-season match in 1969. Green was left paralyzed and close to death with no expectations of ever resuming his career on ice. But a year of convalescence and conditioning brought on an impressive recovery. With a metal plate in his head, Green returned to the Bruins line-up to finally savor a Stanley Cup victory in 1972, having missed the first win in 1970.
#20 Dean Prentice
~5'11-165, Shoots - L
~2nd All-Star team in 1960
~Top ten in goal scoring twice (4th, 10th)
~Top ten in points once (10th)
~4th in playoff scoring in 1966
~Eleven 20+ goal seasons
Prentice settled onto a line with Andy Bathgate and Larry Popein. The trio became the Rangers' most successful unit. Prentice became the two-way standout who excelled at backchecking, killing penalties, working the corners and jumping onto the powerplay. But his quiet, unassuming personality took a back seat to the more colourful Bathgate who was the dipsy-doodler and scorer among the trio. As such, Prentice has been characterized as the most underrated forward of his era.
#25 Vincent Damphousse
~6'1-191, Shoots - L
~Stanley Cup Champion in 1993
~4th in playoff scoring in 1993, 9th in 2004
~Four 90+ point seaons, Six 80+ point seasons
~Five 30+ goal seasons
~4th in Selke votig in 1996
~NHL captain for 4 seasons
~Played in All-Star game three times
~Smart two-way player with good size
Sergei Gonchar
#8 Cecil Dillon
~5'11-175, Shoots - L
~Stanley Cup Champion in 1933 (retroactive Conn Smythe winner)
~Led the 1933 playoffs in scoring
~1st All-Star team (1938)
~2nd All-Star team (1936, 1937)
~Top ten goal scorer six times (2nd, 4th, 6th, 6th, 6th, 6th)
~Top five point scorer twice (4th, 5th)
~Eight season long iron man streak
1933 playoffs
Winger from the checking line was the dominant player in the playoffs. He had goals in his first five playoff games including the winner in the opener of the finals against Toronto, then picked up the first goal in a 3-2 loss to the Leafs and was selected one of the games stars in a 1-0 overtime winner for his work in holding the Primeau-Conacher-Jackson line to no goals in the final.

G Glenn Hall
https://secure.cstek.com:/idb/hpics/media/web/image/nhl/chi/player/097518.jpg
First-Team All Star: 7 (1957, 1958, 1960, 1963, 1964, 1966, 1969)
Second-Team All Star: 4 (1956, 1961, 1962, 1967)
Vezina Trophy: 3 (1963, 1967, 1969)
Conn Smythe: 1 (1968)
Calder Trophy: 1956
Stanley Cups: 1 (1961)
Hall was an innovater, credited as the first to use the butterfly style now prevalent across the NHL - this despite the fact that he didn't wear a mask. He was a post-season All Star a remarkable 11 times, a record among goalies. He also started 502 consecutive games (plus 50 more during the playoffs) which attests to his durability. He's the ultimate combination of longevity and dominance.
D Earl Seibert
https://secure.cstek.com:/idb/hpics/media/web/image/nhl/chi/player/230206.jpg
First-Team All Star: 4 (1935, 1942, 1943, 1944)
Second-Team All Star: 6 (1936, 1937, 1938, 1939, 1940, 1941)
Stanley Cups: 2 (1933, 1938)
Seibert was one of the toughest players in his day - even Eddie Shore once commented he was the only man he was afraid to fight. He played a strong positional game defensively and was an excellent shot blocker. He also had a quick first pass and was underrated offensively, although that wasn't really his game. He was also a key contributor on two Stanley Cup winners, and even finished second on the Blackhawks in scoring in the 1938 playoffs.
C Edouard "Newsy" Lalonde
https://secure.cstek.com:/idb/hpics/media/web/image/nhl/mon/player/138903.jpg
Art Ross Trophy: 2 (1919, 1921)
Stanley Cups: 1 (1916)
Newsy was a scoring champion five times in different leagues and was the preeminent offensive talent of his time. A combination of speed, skill and toughness allowed Newsy to excel at every aspect of the game. He also brought leadership as the captain of the Montreal Canadiens for 6 years from 1915 to 1921, and leading them to the Stanley Cup in 1916. He was a clutch playoff performer and also holds the record for goals in a single game, with 9. In addition to his two Art Rosses, he also had a second and a fourth place finish in his five years in the NHL.
D/F Fred "Cyclone" Taylor
http://www.legendsofhockey.net:8080/LegendsOfHockey/members/splash/P194706S.jpg
Stanley Cups: 2 (1909, 1915)
Cyclone Taylor was another of early hockey's true superstars. One of the fastest skaters the game has ever seen, he was a dynamic offensive player with a dazzling array of moves. He was also incredibly versatile, capable of playing forward, defense, or rover with equal efficiency. Taylor has the remarkable distinction of being named to the First All-Star 18 straight times, or every year that he played hockey.
LW Doug Bentley
https://secure.cstek.com:/idb/hpics/media/web/image/nhl/chi/player/016002.jpg
First-Team All Star: 3 (1943, 1944, 1947)
Second-Team All Star: 1 (1949)
Art Ross Trophy: 1 (1943)
Doug Bentley, despite his slight frame, was known as a "complete" player. With speed to burn and nose for the net, Bentley was both a great playmaker and goal scorer. Unfortunately for Bentley, he was stuck on some very bad Blackhawks teams, and as a result, is one of the best forwards to have never won the Stanley Cup. He was a top-10 point scorer 6 times, including 4 top-5 finishes. He also led the league in goal scoring twice and assists twice. His strong two way play is something we covet on the Clippers.
C Adam Oates
https://secure.cstek.com:/idb/hpics/media/web/image/nhl/stl/player/193003.jpg
Second-Team All Star: 1 (1991)
Lead the League in Assists 3 Times (only Orr and Gretzky did it more)
Was Top-5 in Assists 9 Times (only Howe and Gretzky did it more)
Adam Oates is quite simply one of the greatest playmakers of all time. With his innate ability to make his linemates better, Oates is an extremely valuable player to have. In addition to his excellent offensive abilities, Oates was a very good defensive player, capable of playing on the PK and in late game situations. He's also a top-notch faceoff man, one of the best of his generation, if not one of the best all-time.
D Allan Stanley
https://secure.cstek.com:/idb/hpics/media/web/image/nhl/nyr/player/244013.jpg
Second-Team All Star: 3 (1960, 1961, 1966)
Stanley Cups: 4 (1962, 1963, 1964, 1967)
Old 'Snowshoes' wasn't the most fleet of foot defenseman in his day, but he made up for it with excellent positional defensive play, often doing the small things that few would notice. He combined this defensive play with a touch of physical play and an underrated offensive game. An excellent passer, Stanley was a top-5 scorer from the backend 5 times in the regular season and was top-4 7 times in the playoffs. Twice a runner up for the Norris, Stanley also has four Stanley Cups to his name.
LW Roy Conacher
https://secure.cstek.com:/idb/hpics/media/web/image/nhl/chi/player/047305.jpg
Art Ross: 1 (1949)
First-Team All Star: 1 (1949)
Stanley Cups: 2 (1939, 1941)
The brother of Lionel and Charlie, he's one of the most underrated players of all time, IMO. Despite missing four seasons in the middle of his prime fighting in the war, Conacher was able to still finish top-2 in goal scoring a remarkable 5 times, top-10 8 times and also won an Art Ross. He was also a big man, though not as much of a power forward as Charlie, he was capable physically and in the corners.
LW/D Babe Siebert
https://secure.cstek.com:/idb/hpics/media/web/image/nhl/mon/player/234805.jpg
Hart Trophy: 1 (1937)
First-Team All Star: 3 (1936, 1937, 1938)
Stanley Cups: 2 (1926, 1933)
Siebert was one of the toughest players of his day. Originally a LW playing on the S Line with Hooley Smith and Nels Stewart, Siebert was known for his strong defensive play and ability to rush the puck. Half way through his career, he was traded back to the Canadiens, and was moved back to defense, where he won three consecutive First-Team All Star selections and a Hart trophy.
D Sylvio Mantha
https://secure.cstek.com:/idb/hpics/media/web/image/nhl/mon/player/160002.jpg
Second-Team All Star: 2 (1931, 1932)
Stanley Cups: 3 (1924, 1930, 1931)
Mantha was one of the best defensive defensemen of his time. A two time post-season All Star, he was the defensive conscience on the high flying Morenz/Joliat Habs. Also an adept offensive player, Mantha was a more than capable passer and clutch goal scorer. A great leader, he was the Habs Captain for 9 seasons. He's also a natural right handed shot/right side D-man.
RW Terry O'Reilly
https://secure.cstek.com:/idb/hpics/media/web/image/nhl/bos/player/195601.jpg
An extremely tough player with a 'take no prisoners' type attitude, O'Reilly was the heart and soul of the late 70's/early 80's Bruins teams. Despite his reputation as a grinder, O'Reilly was a top-10 scorer in 1977/1978. O'Reilly was also an excellent defensive player, often responsible for shutting down the opposition's best.
LW Don Marcotte
A tireless worker, Marcotte was one of the best defensive players of his day, capable of logging huge minutes on the PK. He was also a relentless forechecker and a more than capable hitter. Despite usually taking on the other team's top line, he managed to be a consistent 50-60 point scorer through out his career. He also has his name on the Stanley Cup twice.
RW Didier Pitre
Pitre will fit in perfectly on our top line as he was the long time wing man of Newsy Lalonde. A big man even by today's standards, Pitre was also a phenominal skater, and one of the few big RW's with the scoring ability and speed to keep up with Lalonde and Bentley. He was arguably the greatest scorer in the NHA, and was a top-5 scorer once and a top-10 scorer once in the NHL, despite those years coming at the end of his career. He won one Stanley Cup. His chemistry with Lalonde should give me potent first line.
LW Paul Thompson
One of the most underrated players of all-time, Thompson was one of the most consistent stars of the thirties. He was an excellent defensive player and had one post-season All Star selection and 3 Stanley Cups. He was a top-10 point scorer 5 times (top-5 twice) and had 4 top-10 goal scoring seasons. He'll bring great two-way play to our third line.
RW Bobby Rousseau
An excellent defensive player often responsible for shutting down the opposition’s best, Rousseau was top-5 in assists three times and top-10 in points twice. He also was a big part of four cup winners and has a post-season All Star selection to his name. He’ll fit in perfectly on our third line with Thompson, providing extremely strong two way play.
Coach Hap Day
Though he wasn’t the longest serving coach, Day was incredibly successful. In his 10 seasons as the Leafs’ coach, he won 5 Stanley Cups (and was 5-0 in Cup Finals). His focus as a coach was on defense, and his teams were always the best prepared teams in the league. He rewarded hard work, as status alone wouldn’t get you ice time. His philosophy fits into the group we’re assembling on the Clippers, with a top-notch goaltender, a strong defense corps and a forward group filled with players who are very good to excellent defensively. Ted Kennedy was once quoted as saying, “We won five championships basically because of our coaching.”
C Doug Risebrough
A chippy and agitating player, Risebrough was usually dispatched to match up against the opponent’s top line. He was able to get under their skin while contributing 50 to 60 points a season. He has four Cup wins to his name, and also made it to the Cup finals as the captain of the Flames.
RW Odie Cleghorn
A rough and tumble competitor (though he didn't have the same temper as his brother) he'll make room for Oates and Conacher. He'll also be able to chip in offensively, as he was a 4 time top-10 point scorer, as well as a 4 time top-10 goal scorer (including three top-5 finishes) and has his name on one Cup. He was also a very productive player in the NHA and likely would be better remembered if he had spent more time in the NHL.
D Bill Hajt
Hajt provides a steadying influence on the back end. He seemed to thrive in a role when paired with an offensive wizard, so he should make a great partner for Cyclone Taylor. He's a big body, though he wasn't overly physical, he'll play great positional defense and allow Taylor to utilize his rushing skills. For a player that usually played against the opposition's best, he also has one of the top 25 +/-'s of all time, which is impressive in context. He also took very few penalties, meaning he is an extremely reliable player.
G Normie Smith
While Smith may not be the best goaltender left, he has shown that he is able to carry a team to the Cup, given by his retroactive Conn Smythe for 1936. He posted a 0.20 GAA during the Finals, including an 89 stop performance in a 1-0 OT win. The following season he was a First-Team All Star and Vezina winner, backstopping the Red Wings once again to victory. Busher Jackson was quoted as saying "That bird Normie Smith robbed me more than any goaltender I ever fired at." Unfortunately for Smith, a spat with Jack Adams essentially ended his career leading to a trade to the Bruins. He was stuck behind Frank Brimsek which led to his premature retirement.
D Ted Harris
Harris gives us a doubly tough defender, one of the best fighters of the 60's and a player who can play a regular shift on defense. He was a member of 4 Stanley Cup winning teams and was a Second-Team All Star once. At worst, he can sub in for Hajt as our sixth d-man if we're up against a more physical team. In addition, he's capable enough to allow us to move Cyclone Taylor up front if we need more scoring on our top lines.
C Phil Goyette
Goyette is an excellent defensive player and PK'er. He won four Cups with the Canadiens as a key shut down player. Stuck behind Beliveau, Richard and Backstrom, he wasn't able to display his offensive talent. After leaving the Canadiens, he blossomed as an excellent offensive player, finishing as a top-10 scorer three times and was an All Star four times. He brings strong two-way play that should complement Rousseau and Thompson on our third line.
RW Marian Hossa
A two time top-10 goal scorer, Hossa provides good all around play. He can fit in anywhere from our second to our fourth line if need be and chip in offensively while playing solid defense.
Clippers Team Strategy
I want to make a note of a couple things that may seem odd about my team by explaining several of our planned strategies.
First, it seems like a waste of Taylor's talent having him on the third defensive pairing. What you will likely see from our team on average is Seibert playing 25 mins/night, Stanley, Mantha and Siebert 22 mins/night, Taylor 16 and Hajt 13. Depending on the situation, Taylor will either see his minutes bumped up on the backend or will spend his remaining ice time along side Bentley and Lalonde up front. This creates a situation where both Pitre and Cleghorn will play less minutes than you might expect from first/second line players (as Pitre will also play along side Oates/Conacher).
Second, in terms of matching, we feel that we have two lines capable of playing a shut down role, and both will match up against the other teams best depending on the opponent. Against teams with gritty first lines like Vancouver and Edmonton, you'll see Marcotte-Risebrough-O'Reilly playing the majority of the game against that line. Conversely, against speedier, skill based first lines, Thompson-Goyette-Rousseau will get the matchup. In terms of defense pairings, Stanley will be paired with Seibert in the first case and Mantha in the second.
If we feel there is a need for more offense, you'll see Harris draw in and Taylor moved to the first line along side Bentley/Lalonde and Pitre moved down to the second line. You'll also see all four lines rolled fairly regularly.

Projected Hockey Hall of Famers
Doug Gilmour Guy Carbonneau Mats Sundin Scott Niedermayer
-#11 Daniel Alfredsson "He's one of the best all-around, two-way players in the game. He's an excellent skater, a creative puckhandler and an opportunistic scorer. He's nearly as good a finisher as he is a playmaker. Plus, he kills penalties, he'll give up his body to block shots and he's got a lot of grit to him. He's not a huge banger, but he plays through pain and gives you a point a night. He's as honest as the day is long." - Ultimate Sports Hockey 2000-2001
#14 Dave AndreychukGilmour to Andreychuck He scores is a common refrain! He is a true finisher A big winger with good hockey sense around the net. His major asset is tremendous hand skills in traffic that allow him to bang home rebounds. He is also a great special teams player.
#21 Bobby Baun A prototypical defensive defenceman his game? Look up the term "hard rock" in the dictionary and there would be a picture of #21. Also check out "irrepressible". He was a force to be reckoned with on the Leaf defence. His philosophy was "You don't have to kill every forward coming down the ice, just slow them up a little." Few opposing players coming into the Leafs end of the rink ever came in with their heads down against Baun.
Baun played a lot of minutes for a very long time, he could hit like Scott Stevens !! As for his fighting, he always showed up for the fight, he was fearless.
-#20 Mike Bossy-Mike Bossy was magic on ice. Bossy game was one
of suddeness and speed. He was a wonderous apparation: time and time again Mike would seem to materilize unchecked, in perfect scoring position with the puck dangerously positioned on his stick. He would use sleight of hand when he would shoot the puck. He doesn't even look like he touches it. Poof: red light. Just perfecto magic on ice! Bossy usedhuman nature to suceeed on the ice,. He used other players beleifs that he was tied up, that the penalty was almost over and that the epriod would eventually would play out. Alot ofplayers look at the clock and say it is too late to score. With mike it was never too late!He was a devestating marksman.He scored 2 cup winnign goals.He is the only player to do in back to back seasons.
-#21 Guy Carbonneau - He was also one of the league's most persistent and effective shadows: he always played against the league's skilled players in an era when offense meant everything. His skating was well above average, although he didn't have straight-line speed. He had a nice wrister that seemed to catch goalies off guard.He could hang on to the puck like it was glued to his stick. Great vision and understanding of the game made him one of the most dominant defensive forward of his area. Carboneau played his best hockey alongside Mike McPhee. They were an fiesty, dangerous duo who could take care of both ends of the rink.
-#3 Zdeno CharaA workhorse that loves to hit people. Plays with tremendous intensity and grit. Is a very popular player in the dressing room. Possesses underrated offensive ability.He is a mean uncompromising crease clearer blessed with supreme size strength andreach. He boasta a overpowering shot and is a profocoent take charge puck mover due to his increasing mobility and surprising top flight speed.
# 1 Alec Connell Alex personal trademark was a black cap which he wore while in goal to keep himself warm. His best of many great seasons was 1925-26 in Ottawa recording 15 shutouts and amassing a superb 1.12 goals-against average. Alex set and still holds an NHL record when in 1927-28 he recorded 6 straight shutouts and 461 consecutive scoreless minutes. His career goals-against average of 1.91 ties him with George Hainsworth for the lowest mark in NHL history. Won 2 Stanley Cups while playing with Ottawa (1927) and Montreal Maroons (1935)
# 4 CG Drinkwater-One of the most versatile stars of the early days of the game, Graham Drinkwater was a fixture in the Montreal Victorias' lineup. He was a rare breed with an ability to function equally well at the defense and forward positions. Brilliant stickhandling, a natural scoring touch and team-permeating enthusiasm characterized Drinkwater's play. He was an integral component of the Montreal Victorias squad that became hockey's first dynasty with four Stanley Cup triumphs in the 1890s
In 1895 Drinkwater scored nine goals in eight contests to help the Victorias win the Amateur Hockey Association of Canada championship, and the title earned the club the distinction of being holders of the Stanley Cup.
Physically the biggest members of the team he was also a fine centerman.
Graham Drinkwater's smooth-skating and well-rounded game made him one of the top stars during hockey's formative period. He was always a key player on the teams for which he played.
Drinkwater took his rightful place in the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1950.Stanley Cup Champion in 1895 1896 1897 1898 1899
-#9! Billy Gilmour Hamilton "Billy" Gilmour was one of the seven Gilmour brothers, three of whom played for the famed Silver Seven of Ottawa. He played on three Stanley Cup teams with the Ottawa Silver Seven in 1903, '04, and '05 and was also a member of the Cup winning Ottawa Senators in 1908-09. Gilmour was named to the Montreal City Hockey League first All-star team in 1907 and was an Eastern Canada Amateur Hockey Association first team All-star in 1908 after finishing the season with 11 goals in 11 games. Along with his scoring prowess, Gilmour was regarded as one of the greatest stickhandlers of all time. Gilmour served in World War I and had resided in Paris, France, prior to the outbreak of World War II before retiring to Mount Royal, Quebec.Billy G was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1962
-#93 Doug Gilmour-He was the best player, pound for pound his october playing weight was 170 when the season started but it would get dangerously close to 160 by the time april rolled around. Dougie epitomizes how a small man can play at such a high level in the NHL. Dougie had a ferocity about him that belies his size. He played on the edge of rules, with a little late push here, a sneaky lilttle cuff there. On his best night Gilmour could get into a emotional zone that lifted him into a class with the all time NHL elite. You would see it in his first shift, if he theres an extra push of energy in his stride and if there was then you knew he would be a pain all night long and a force to be delat with. He was one of the few who was in the top five players in the league offensively and defensivley. Dougie needed to be hungry to thrive. He combined great vision and shifty skating to drive opponents nuts. Primarily a playmaker he needed wingers like Andreychuck or Wendel Clark to feed the puck too. When he wasn't attacking the opponents goal he was defending his own with relentless checking. He didn't just score big goals he scared the top players on every team. He was the heart and soul of Canadas team and became a national star and a beloved hockey legend.
#11 Bill Hay - Bill joined the Chicago Black Hawks in 1959-60. He was a big strong centre with offensive flair..He played on the Hawks with fellow greats Bobby Hull, Stan Mikita, Elmer Vasco and Glenn Hall in net. In 70 games with the Hawks, he had 18 goals and 37 assists, and earned the Calder Memorial Trophy. He spent the rest of his NHL career in Chicago, helping his team win the Stanley Cup in 1960-61 while centering the million dollar line. He stayed with Chicago until 1967, consistently putting double digits in the point column
#7 Tim Horton is regarded by many as the strongest man ever to lace up skates in the NHL. Strong beyond words, he would grab anyone foolish enough to invade his space on the ice and introduce him none too gently to the boards. He also earned a reputation as a peacekeeper over the course of his career, deterring opposition with a grasp known as the “Horton Bear Hug.” He was also a solid offensive threat and a strong skater with a cannon for a shot
#33 Al Iafrate- - A gigantic defenceman who could skate like the wind, Al was a rugged d-man who could throw thunderous body checks when needed but his offensive game was the most important element of his play as he possessed copious amounts of raw skill. It took him four years to settle into the NHL, but he once he matured, Iafrate made a solid impact as a big leaguer. His talents were equal to that of the best defenceman in the nhl. He could be a human high light wheel The wild thing could lead your team to victory by taking over control of the game. He is perhaps most famous for his rocket slap shot that set the NHL Skills Competition record at 105.2 MPH.
#15 Tomas Kaberle -Tomas kaberle has become an all round star on the blue line kabs has superior hockey sense and this allows him to play with a healthy self-confidence and collects points because he possesses tremendous hockey smarts and has the ability to find his teammates on the ice. A fluid elegant swift skater, he can wheel with the puck and loves to join the attack. Is an excellent accurate passer.Tomas Kaberle provides constant support for his team while becoming one of the top defencemen in the league.He is 4th all time in franchise scoring for a leafs defenceman.
#8 Joe Klukay Stanley Cup wins with the Leafs.
Klukay joined the powerful Toronto Maple Leafs in 1946 and promptly learned how to win and be a professional. He and linemate Nick Metz became the league's most effective penalty killing tandem on a team that won through discipline and defence. Led first by Syl Apps and then Teeder Kennedy, Toronto won three consecutive Stanley Cups from 1947 to 1949. Klukay also spent some time working alongside talented centre Max Bentley. Any serious Stanley Cup contender needs a crasher, a big intimdating forward who can turn a game's flow with one huge hit. The Toronto Maple Leafs were fortunate in 1946 to have found their crasher in Joe Klukay. Klukay was one of Leaf boss Conn Smythe's prize scoring prospects down on the farm. But Klukay soon found that the Leafs already had enough offense. He adjusted to become one of the top penalty-killers-defensive forwards to ever step on the ice.
He showed himself to be a strong skater, one who prided himself on his mental toughness, his cool under fire. He never appeared to be out of place, playing an amazingly sound, technical brand of hockey.
Were you protecting a one-goal lead with two minutes remaining? Klukay was your man! Using one part technique and one part barbarism
-#25 Darren McCarty -He had great hands which he used equally well while scoring and scraping whenever called upon. Darren was sound defensively, played well within a system and was a great team player. He had excellent hitting ability and he usually protects his teammates.
#1 Frank McCool - He was a talented enigmatic goalie who was so nervous before every game that he would vomit in between periods. Frank was discovered playing senior hockey in Calgary Alberta, his hometown, and was signed as a free agent by the Toronto Maple Leafs. McCOOL, nicknamed "Ulcers" because of his nervous condition, joined the Leafs and had a season to dream of. Playing every minute of the 50-game season, McCOOL led Toronto to a third place finish, and led the league in shutouts with four.
-#27 Scott Niedermayer Possesses a terrific combination of vision and skating ability. Is one of the most mobile defensemen in the NHL. Has awesome recuperative ability in the defensive zone. Can put up points and lead by example.
#8 Alexander OvechkinHas natural scoring instincts and an all-around game. Possesses offensive flair like Ilya Kovalchuk and Nikolai Zherdev, but is more physical and uses his frame better. Owns a deadly right-handed shot, and likes to play from his off-wing. He is a complete scoring machine who is elegant and explosive with great passion footspeed and bravado. Hecan overwhelm defenders 1 on 1 with great unescapablity and unparalleled ability to execute deftly at supersonic speeds. His shot has velocity is superman like due to his amazing wrist strength. Heworks feverishly without the puck and he is tough and physical and is good for at least one wipe out hit per game.
#94 Ryan Smyth- Has underrated playmaking skills. Goes to the net with ample vigor and scores the majority of his goals due to supreme determination. He makes smart poised plays under pressure, Is strong along the boards and displays a sound overall game.He is a fearless energetic warrior he has agift for driving towards the net and screening goalies.A leader who iscomfortable playing any style of game.
-#13 Mats Sundin Captain Mats is a durable elite forward who has an excellent package of size strength and finese He uses his reach to a degree that it is very hard to get the puck from him. Is extremely slick, loves to find the holes and has a wide variety of shots. Consistency is the name of his game.His shot is feared because of its accuracy.He is used in all game situations power play pently killing and is a great faceoffman especially when the game is on the line. Universally offensive talent can be unstoppable when driving his prodigious size and strength towards the net. He has one of the best backhand shots in the history of the league.
#16 Darcy Tucker LW is a under sized pest who plays at full speed all the time.He brings a little bit of everything to the playing ice arena.He can kill penalties and can contribute to the powerplay.Always comes to play and forechecks very well. Provides an energy boost for his team every shift and has a decent set of hands around the net. Is absolutely fearless on the ice.Darcy has a knack for getting in the open and he wins battles for the puck using his quickness and ferocious competitiveness.He is a dangerous prescence when shooting from the half point.A valued soldier and a team sparkplug!
# 30 Mike Vernon-The small but highly intelligent and experienced netminder was an extremely valuable and effective man in the crease was adept at handling the puck.He controls shots so that rebounds are limited. He plays his angles well. He positions himself on the top of the crease to make himself look bigger.Quick glove, good skating skills. Experienced, with great mental strength, and highly competitive.
Paul Maurice - Coach The Current Coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs 2006- 07
Paul Maurice (born ca. 1967 in Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario) is a professional hockey coach. He is currently the head coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs of the National Hockey League.
Paul MauriceIn 1985, Paul played defence for the Windsor Spitfires of the Ontario Hockey League. He was struck in the eye by a puck, which had ricocheted off his stick, during a charity hockey game in which he was participating. He still has a blind spot and suffers fuzziness on the right side of his field of vision. When goalie Pat Jablonski was sent down by the St. Louis Blues, the Windsor Spitfires were therefore in excess number of players. At this point he was given the option by team owner Peter Karmanos to be traded or step behind the bench. He thus began his coaching career with the Detroit Jr. Red Wings (a team Karmanos operated) of the OHL from 1993 to 1995, leading the team to the J. Ross Robertson Cup and a second place finish in Memorial Cup in 1995.
He was then hired to coach the Hartford Whalers (later the Carolina Hurricanes) of the NHL in 1995, at the remarkably young age of 28. Throughout much of his tenure, he was the youngest active coach in the NHL. The high point of his NHL career came in the 2001-02 NHL season, when the Hurricanes reached the Stanley Cup finals, losing to the Detroit Red Wings. After coaching 604 regular season games he was fired by the Hurricanes in 2003, after the team started the first 20 games 8-12.
On June 24, 2005 he was hired to coach the Toronto Marlies, after the team had relocated from St. John's, Newfoundland. In the 2005-06 season, the Marlies qualified for fourth playoff spot in their division. They were subsequently eliminated by the Grand Rapids Griffins in the first round.
On May 12, 2006, The Toronto Maple Leafs announced Paul Maurice as the head coach of the team starting in the 2006-07 NHL season, replacing former head coach Pat Quinn, who was fired on April 20, 2006.Maurice, 39, becomes the Leafs’ youngest head coach since Dan Maloney led the team during the 1984-85 season at the age of 33
His first leafs team just missed the playoffs depite having injuries to several key players during the 2006-07
He incorporates many ideas into his gameplay such as heart monitors on the benches. He favours short (30 second) shifts over longer ones.
Maurice's 2-man forecheck system, a key to Offensive Success.
------------------------------------------------------------------------
The All Time Drafts Coach of the Toronto Maple Leafs
Introducing Maurice's 2 man forecheck system:
We have a Intellectual coach who will be able to adapt mid game by implmenting trends used around the league by installign a system that best helps the team succeed.
The leafs have good defensive centers (Sundin, Gilmour Carbonneau etc) to allow the wingers to ATTACK the offensive zone with abandon.. The leafs forwards will cause many turnovers in the offensive side of the ice.
Couple the two-man forecheck with a much stronger defense, and mobile defensemen who can retrieve and control the puck well after picking up the turnovers caused by the opposing teams forwards.
Maurice is the type of head coach that can instruct his players and communicate with his troops during a game when situations on the ice changed (such as a penalty or a game changing momentum play)
what I love about this strategy (and system) is it makes the leafs very hard to play against.. Opposing defenseman have to be VERY alert because they have 2 forecheckers barreling down on them all for most of the game.
That's not easy..
It will be harder for teams to just stroll their way into our zone. They have to think about how to get the puck out of their own end first !
we have the right kind of team to have an effective 2-man forecheck.. The make-up of the team is perfect for it.
#1. We have good defensive centers to cover defensively for the rushing wingers like bossy Alfredsson Billy Gilmour and Ovechkin.. Sundin, Douggie Gilmour, Carbonneau plus my team has soem great terrific defensive wingers
Dave Andreychuk Mike Bossy Joe Klukay Darren McCarty and Ryan Smyth
#2. We have good mobile defensemen with good puck handling skills to retrieve and control the pucks caused by the wingers creating the turnovers..
Tim Horton Scott Niedermayer CG Drinkwater Tomas Kaberle.
This team also have smart tough rugged punishing physical defensive rear gaurds like Bobby Baun Zdeno Chara Tim Horton and Al Iafrate
Maurice is definitely a young bench boss who could out coach any old timer!

#4 JEAN BÉLIVEAU
Jean "Le Gros Bill" Beliveau was one of the all-time classiest players in the NHL, both on the ice and off. He made his career as a strong skater and was hard if not impossible to slow down.[...] For everyone who knew him, the fund was a very fitting way to say farewell to Beliveau, as he was considered by many to be a true role model for kids. Clarence Campbell, president of the NHL, said: "Any parent could use Jean Beliveau as a pattern or role model. He provides hockey with a magnificent image. I couldn't speak more highly of anyone who has ever been associated with our game than I do of Jean."

#1 JACQUES PLANTE
If not the best goalie of all time, Jacques Plante was certainly the most important - the man who introduced the art of modern goaltending to the NHL and whose influence is seen every night a game is played. [...] Plante was a pioneer of the style of play for goaltenders as well. While there had been other goalies before him who periodically came out of their crease to play the puck, he was the first to skate in behind the net to stop the puck for his defensemen. He also was the first to raise his arm on an icing call to let his defensemen know what was happening on the ice, and he perfected a stand-up style of goaltending that emphasized positional play, cutting down the angles and staying square to the shooter.

The story of Larry Murphy is one of perseverance and longevity. Quietly yet efficiently, Murphy has delivered one of the most productive careers of any blueliner in NHL history. [...] Steady, reliable and tremendously gifted offensively, Larry Murphy was named to the Hockey Hall of Fame in 2004, his first year of eligibility.
Murphy was a smart, studious player. It was his understanding of what he could do that made him special.

One of the most talented and classiest stars ever to play in the NHL, Alex "Fats" Delvecchio spent more than two decades with the Detroit Red Wings. He was a superior playmaker and team leader and one of the game's true gentlemen. When he retired in 1973, he trailed only long-time teammate Gordie Howe in games played, assists and total points. His career extended from Detroit's glory years of the early 1950s to their dismal 1970s.

#9 MIKE MODANO
An imposing blend of size, speed and grace, Mike Modano was one of the most exciting NHL stars of the 1990's. A lifetime member of the Stars franchise in Minnesota and Dallas, he became one of the most successful American born players in NHL history. He was a consistent scorer whose point totals would likely have been higher had the Stars not been a defensive-oriented team. Nonetheless he was vital part of a team that reached the Stanley Cup finals in 1991 and won the first championship in franchise history in 1999.

#3 CHING JOHNSON
Defenseman Ching Johnson matched his rugged defensive play with an ability to contribute inside the opposition's blue line. He was a valuable team leader and fan favorite throughout his 12-year NHL career.[...] During his playing days, Johnson was considered one of the hardest bodycheckers ever to play the game. More significantly, he perfected the technique of nullifying the opposition by clutching and grabbing them as discreetly as possible. [...] Johnson accumulated 86 points in his 12 NHL seasons. But it was his physical play and his charismatic leadership that made him one of the most valuable rearguards of his time. Ching Johnson was elected to the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1958.

#16 RICK MIDDLETON
Middleton earned his place as captain of the Bruins. Middleton credits much of his success in hockey to Cherry, who very early in his career encouraged him to work on his defense. Without a doubt, Middleton was one of very few players in the NHL who was strong on both the power-play and as a penalty killer.[...] His biggest success in international hockey, he claimed, happened in 1984 while he was a member of coach Scotty Bowman's team. Middleton played on a line with Wayne Gretzky and Gilbert Perreault. Gretzky himself was amazed at Middleton's abilities on ice.

#12 BRYAN HEXTALL SR.
He was a permanent fixture with the Blueshirts playing on his "off wing," many years before the tactic was to become common practice in the league. Hextall found that he had a better shooting angle, as a left-handed shot, by cutting in on goal from the right wing. Using the strategy to his advantage, he led the NHL in goals scored in the 1939-40 and 1940-41 seasons and won the NHL scoring race outright in 1941-42.[...] Hextall was considered the dominant right winger of his day, earning First Team All-Star selections in 1940, 1941, and 1942 before adding a Second Team All-Star selection to his resume in 1943. He scored perhaps the biggest goal in New York Rangers history on April 13, 1940, in overtime, in game six of the Stanley Cup finals.

#21 DOUG JARVIS
Centre Doug Jarvis was solid in all aspects of the game but developed into one of the best defensive pivots in the NHL. He also managed to avoid the injury bug and set the league's "ironman" record by appearing in an incredible 964 straight regular season games from 1975 to 1987.[...] Jarvis played seven years with powerful Habs as they won four consecutive Stanley Cups from 1976 to 1979. He formed one of the league's best penalty killing tandems with Bob Gainey.

He was a star defenceman on the Bruins' Stanley Cup championship teams of 1939 and 1941 he played in the NHL from 1932-33 to 1945-46. Known for his swift skating stride and strong puckhandling ability, Hollett was one of the top offensive defencemen of his day.
In 1939, the Bruins, and especially Hollett, took pleasure in beating the Leafs to Lord Stanley. In the fifth game of the matchup, he and Milt Schmidt lured Leafs goalie Turk Broda from his net, freeing Hollett to pop home the series winner. From then on, Hollett became a fixture on the Bruins blueline with his ability to rush the puck and score what was, at the time, a record number of goals for a defenseman.

#12 GORDIE DRILLON
Gord Drillon had a short but spectacular career in the National Hockey League playing mainly with the Toronto Maple Leafs. He was a first team all-star in 1938 and 1939, a second team all-star in 1942, and NHL scoring leader and Lady Byng Trophy winner in 1938.[...]Drillon's style of hockey was to park himself in front of the net and tip shots and swat at rebounds, and not worry about back-checking. "I spent ten years playing in the slot before anyone invented a name for it," he said later.
I don't think there's a player in hockey who can shoot the puck more accurately. Even if you leave him an opening the size of the puck, he'll hit it every time.

#9 HOD STUART
Stuart rose to prominence as one of the greatest defencemen to play the game in hockey's early day. He was as complete a player as there was back in the days of the "onside" game. He could skate, shoot, and make the big play from his point position.[...] Stuart was a clean player who played for keeps. His punishing checks and long reach frustrated his opponents as much as his offensive rushes dazzled the fans.

Aurie was a scorer who (ragged) the puck to kill penalties (thus the nickname Little Dempsey): a team leader.
Larry Aurie was one of the smallest players to ever play the game Only 5-feet-6, 148 pounds, he established himself as one of Detroit's earliest hockey stars, combining a deft scoring touch with excellent speed and puck handling skills.
Aurie would fight a tiger to win and was a damn good hockey player. He was very small, only 145 pounds, but very strong. He would stand in front of the net and take on players 50 to 60 pounds heavier and handled it well. Much like (Dino) Ciccarelli, only Larry could fight. He would drop his stick at the drop of a hat.

Edward Ivanov had a North American first name, and he played a North American style of defense. He was a defensive defender who loved to play physically. He would do anything - sacrifice his body, block shots, clear the front of the net - in order for his team to win. He had a great ability to spring transition offense with his deadly accurate passing.
Like an experienced warrior, he has many fine qualities, courage, and decisiveness. He is entirely dedicated to hockey, he is in love with the game, he thirsts for battle.

#9 DAN BAIN
He played a rather large role on one of hockey's first great teams (Winnipeg Victorias). During this time, the muscular Bain provided scoring, playmaking and a physical presence to two Stanley Cup championship squads. Along with his great skills on ice, he was blessed with natural leadership qualities.
Considered one of the finest playmakers of the pre-NHL era, the muscular Bain scored the Stanley Cup-winning goal in Winnipeg's stunning upset of the mighty Montreal Victorias in 1896 – the first time a team from outside Montreal won hockey's most coveted prize. Bain produced more heroics five years later, becoming the first player to net the Cup-winner in overtime as the Winnipeg Victorias shocked the powerful Montreal Shamrocks.

Jack Darragh was one of those old-time players who grew up, played and died in the same city - his home town of Ottawa, Ontario.[...]He was a superb skater, a very clever stickhandler and had a good backhand shot. As a result, Darragh was a prolific scorer. In 1919-20, he scored 22 goals in 23 games, and over his 13-year pro career he averaged better than a goal every two games. In an era of fierce and often violent hockey, Darragh also had a reputation for being a pacifist.

John Vanbiesbrouck played better than ever the last month of the regular season and in the playoffs. Everyone on the club knew he was the main reason the team advanced to the Stanley Cup Finals.

But, he persevered and was selected as the National Hockey League's First Team All-Star left wing in 1942 and was a Second Team selection in 1943. He was a member of the Rangers' 1940 Stanley Cup winning team and led the league with 32 goals two years later in 1941-42.

Moran played in the days prior to a goal crease being painted in front of the net and guarded his area like a stray dog with a bone. His quick stick was used for more than just deflecting shots and opposition players soon developed a healthy respect for Paddy's self-created "crease." He was a clutch goalie and in the big games was hard to beat.

*Co-Captains alternate captaincy each game, with the non-captain wearing an A in games where he is not captain.
**/***I am interpretting Suchy's long career/short peak as meaning he'll be inconsistant over the course of the season. His double entry on the right side indicates that he'll be the #1 RD when he's hot, but, when cold he'll split limitted time between the two sides when he's cold. So, **=Suchy is hot. ***=Suchy is cold.
****Players in red are anticipated to be healthy scratches.

:devils
Coach: Pat Burns (http://www.hockeydb.com/ihdb/stats/pdisplay.php3?pid=686)
Even Pat Burns wont be able to find fault with the attention to defense put forth by this line-up. With a wide selection of multi-positional players, “Selke”, “Norris”, “Hart” and “Conn Smythe” winners to play with, he will find plenty of reasons to smile behind the bench.
Forwards:
Bun Cook (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=8959305&postcount=1095) - Frank Boucher (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=8657762&postcount=837) - Bill Cook (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=8644399&postcount=672) (C)
The Bread Line dominated opposing defenses for 10 years with their precision passing and relentless effort. During the period from 26-27 to 35-36, Bill Cook led all NHLers in goals, Boucher led in assists and points, while Bun Cook fell in between Frank and Bill in goals and assists. All three ranked in the top 10 in goals, assists and points over the period. Bun and Boucher were also known for their excellent defensive efforts.
Bill Barber (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=8724894&postcount=1213) - Vladimir Petrov (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=8786199&postcount=195) - Alexander Maltsev (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=8704070&postcount=1134)
The second line is a solid combination of two-way play, grit and dazzling offensive ability. It’s also a good description of Barber and Petrov, both of whom are at home on both the PP and the PK. While Maltsev doesn’t have the same gritty two-way game as the others, he is the slickest offensively, and is also a versatile forward with strong leadership abilities.
Jack Walker (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=9064976&postcount=371) - Mickey MacKay (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=9039702&postcount=266) - Bob Nevin (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=9081476&postcount=442)
This is a slick defensive unit with huge offensive upside, and the ability to stay out of the penalty box. Walker is the best defensive forward in PCHA history, and while not being a elite scorer, he did manage to lead the NHA in assists, and tied for the team scoring lead on two Stanley Cup winners. Mickey MacKay is one of the slickest two-way players of all-time. Three times led the PCHA in goals, and once in assists, and while almost forgotten now, was regularly compared to Cyclone Taylor and Frank Nighbor in his playing days. Nevin was a solid contributor to the early 60’s success of the Leafs, and his two-way play and leadership helped the Rangers climb to respectability in the late 60s.
John Tonelli (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=8801727&postcount=300) - Trevor Linden (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=8900284&postcount=727) (A) - Ron Duguay (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=9212688&postcount=163)
A line of gritty two-way players, that doesn’t lead to penalty trouble. Tonelli can more than hold his own in the corners with anybody. Linden is the man to handle any of the really big centers, and will see duty on the #1 checking line when necessary. Duguay is better known for his looks, but he brings that ”old-time hockey” work ethic and multi-positional versatility that will allow for countering specific threats by line juggling as needed. While this line lacks the offensive pop of the other lines, the trio still managed to rack up 14 30+ goal seasons, with all three reaching the 30 goal and 80 point mark.
Jack Marshall (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=9255139&postcount=509)
While he may be a little undersized for a regular role on defense, Marshall gives you just about everything else. He played every position except goaltender, and played a robust all-around game. He won two scoring titles, and was selected by the authors of Ultimate Hockey as a two-time “Selke” winner as well.
Defense:
Larry Robinson (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=8597031&postcount=210) - Bob Goldham (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=8880057&postcount=623)
Larry Robinson is one of best all-around packages on defense to ever play the game, a huge physical presence and a mobile puck controlling force in one package. Goldham is a rock solid defender, and one of the best shot blockers of all-time. This unit will be able to shut down both flashy and power offensive lines, and not take penalties, so will see monster minutes.
Viacheslav Fetisov (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=8620015&postcount=365) (A) - Red Dutton (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=9162156&postcount=910)
While not quite as big as Robinson, Fetisov also is an elite level all-around package. He will see action in all game situations. Dutton is a physical defensive hard rock with good mobility. He will primarily see action on the second unit and the PK. While a more mature Dutton will see less time in the box, we take comfort in the fact that the younger Dutton will usually take someone with him when he goes.
Reed Larson (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=8986405&postcount=12) - Ernie "Moose" Johnson (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=9025353&postcount=194)
Reed Larson’s primary role will be that of righty point man on the PP, as he finished in the top 5 of defenseman goal scoring 7 times. He has good mobility and is a willing scrapper, but his lack of defensive polish will limit his playing time. Moose Johnson while fleet of foot and able offensively will have a primary role of shutdown defenseman and PK duty. His unique combination of mobility and huge 99” wingspan will give attackers fits, as he forces them wide and clogs passing lanes with his active stick.
Lester Patrick (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=9172553&postcount=963)
An intelligent defender, a fine rusher, and one of the best passers of his time, Lester Patrick will be more than able of filling any hole that opens up.
Goaltenders:
Chuck Rayner (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=9011632&postcount=109)
Rayner is a highly mobile puck moving goalie, with a lightning quick poke check. While playing behind less than stellar teams for his entire career, he managed to get the Rangers within a goal of the Stanley Cup in 1950. The Rangers played 5 of the 7 games in Detroit, with the other two being played in Toronto. Rayner is also an able scrapper, having once thrashed Kenny Reardon in a fight. One of only two goalies with a Hart and a “Conn Smythe.”
Lorne Chabot (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=9112908&postcount=624)
Chabot was a big but quick goaltender with a career playoff GAA of 1.54. He led both the Rangers and Leafs to their first Stanley Cups.
Glenn Resch (http://hfboards.com/showpost.php?p=9246864&postcount=440)
A talkative and friendly goalie who was popular with teammates, fans and the press. He wont see much playing time, but his heroics in the Isles come from behind run in the 75 playoffs, shows he is capable of getting the job done.

1910 World Hockey Champions
Coach: Herb Brooks
Captain: Lionel Conacher
Alternate Captain: Wayne Gretzky
Alternate Captain: Dirk Graham
Alternate Captain: Frank Nighbor
1- Billy Burch - Wayne Gretzky (A) - Brett Hull
Goals, Goals, Goals !!! At RW, the greatest pure goal scorer of the modern era and at LW, one of the few players to win both the Hart and the Lady Byng Trophy between the greatest player in hockey history.
2- Reg Noble - Frank Nighbor (A) - Dany Heatley
Our second line brings every facet of the game to the table: offense, defense, bodychecking and great leadership.
At LW, a fireplug of a player at 5-foot-8 and 180 pounds, this gritty competitor perfected the poke-check move that would become nearly as famous as his goal-scoring exploits. At C, one of the NHL's first great players and the first winner of the Hart Trophy.It has been recorded that Frank possessed a skating ability rivaled by few players of his era. His playmaking prowess and great defensive ability made him a threat no matter where he was on the ice. An excellent backchecker, his poke check and bodychecking abilities thwarted enemy forwards scoring attempts. At RW, we have the perfect compliment to these 2 great players, someone who brings the total package every game, a scoring machine who is simply lethal in the slot.
3- Dirk Graham (A) - Dave Poulin - Hooley Smith
Shutdown is the key word for the Wanderers <<Selke>> line. Every one of these guys brings to the table a will do anything to win attitude needed to succeed in the playoffs, as these guys are just as willing to skate over an opponent as around them.
At LW, is a hard-hitting, defensive-minded forward but most importantly, a great leader, captain of the Chicago Black Hawks for 6 ½. At C, is one of the best two way performers of any era. To complete the Selke trio at RW, one of the first power forwards of the game, a prolific scorer, a dogged checker and one of the most physically imposing combatants of his era, one of the game's most complete performers.
4- Wendel Clark - Frank Frederickson - Bill Guerin
Physical, clutch, gritty, agitator and punishers was what I was looking for when putting together this 4th line.
At LW and RW, we have a superb combo of skills, hitting and fighting between a dynamic offensive center. Frank Frederickson followed up a brilliant amateur career with an impressive tenure as a professional. Along the way, he won an Olympic gold medal, a Stanley Cup and a scoring title.

George Hainsworth
George Hainsworth, Captain of Montreal Canadiens in 1932-33, was one of hockey's dominant goaltenders of the 1920s and 1930s. He was often overlooked by sportswriters and fans due to the fact that he wasn`t as flashy as other goalies, such as Clint Benedict, who often dominated the headlines. His style was based more on positioning than reflexes so tough saves often looked easier than they were.
Results are all that really matter for the Wanderers. With Hainsworth, we are getting 3 Vezinas, 2 Stanley Cups and 1 retroactive Conn Smythe. Hainsworth also holds the lowest career goals-against average (1.91) in NHL history and is 2nd only behind Sawchuk on the all-time shutout list with 94; remarkable considering Hainsworth didn`t join the NHL until he was 31. Career highlight was sweeping the powerhouse, thought-to-be-unbeatable 38-5-1 Boston Bruins in the 1930 Stanley Cup final.

Coach Scott Bowman
- 9 time Stanley Cup Champion as a coach (1973, 76, 77, 78, 79, 92, 97, 98, 2002)
- 13 time Stanley Cup finalist, losing only 4 times
- The winningest coach in league history, with 1,244 wins in the regular season and 223 in the playoffs
- 2 time Jack Adams Award winner (1977, 1996)
- Inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame
- The 12-man core to the franchise... each one a hard-working two-way competitive multi-time champion
http://www.canadaswalkoffame.com/inductees/03_scotty_bowman.xml.htm
Scotty Bowman is the most successful coach the National Hockey League (NHL) has ever seen, and Sports Illustrated magazine dubbed him "the greatest coach in professional sport."
Nicknamed the 'Rain Man' by the team in Pittsburgh, Bowman's memory for statistics, grasp of players' abilities, knowledge of the game, and command of changing strategy gave him the advantage over lesser adversaries. His no-nonsense approach, passion for winning and demand for excellence didn't always make him the most popular coach with players or owners. But Bowman would earn their respect and who can argue with his success?
http://www.legendsofhockey.net:8080/LegendsOfHockey/jsp/LegendsMember.jsp?mem=B199101&type=Builder&page=bio&list=ByName#photo
The high standards to which William Scott Bowman held himself and his players contributed to a landmark coaching career. A master of motivation and mind games, he knew how to get the most out of every player he handled. During his 27 years as a coach, he never experienced a losing record in any full season in which he was behind the bench. His eight Stanley Cup coaching wins leave him tied with the legendary Toe Blake for the most ever.

LW #17 Valery Kharlamov
- A big part of 11 Russian league championship teams (1968, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1975, 1977, 1978, 1979, 1980 and 1981)
- Through fourteen seasons with Soviet Red Army, collected 293 goals and 214 assists for 507 points in 436 regular season games
- Won Russia's Merited Master of Sport in 1969
- Inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Valery_Kharlamov
...one of the greatest masters of the game. He combined speed, rapid acceleration, and superb stick handling ability together with creative and unpredictable moves that kept the opposition perpetually off balance... explosive speed, agility, and goal scoring prowess
http://www.legendsofhockey.net:8080/LegendsOfHockey/jsp/LegendsMember.jsp?mem=p200501&type=Player&page=bio&list=#photo
Many will best remember Valeri Kharlamov for his role in the 1972 Summit Series versus Team Canada. So effective was the high-flying winger that in Game Six, Canada's Bobby Clarke took an aggressive chop at his ankle. Although he finished the game, Kharlamov's ankle was cracked. He missed Game Seven and was clearly playing injured in the pivotal final game. Still, Valeri scored three goals and four assists in the seven games he played. Kharlamov also played in the 1974 Pro Classic against the WHA stars, scoring two goals and six assists in the eight-game tournament. In 40 games played against North American professionals, Kharlamov collected 19 goals and 29 assists for 48 points.
http://www.1972summitseries.com/game1recap.html
The Soviets continued to impress their opponents and the increasingly quiet Montreal Forum faithful in the second period. Specifically the electrifying Valeri Kharlamov impressed the most. Considered by many to be the greatest Soviet player of all time, Kharlamov scored twice in the middle frame. His explosive speed and scoring ability made him a household name in Canada after that fine period of play.

C #8 Igor Larionov
- 3 time Stanley Cup Champion (1997, 1998, 2002)
- 2 time Olympic Champion (1984, 1988)
- Canada Cup Champion (1981)
- 4 time World Champion (1982, 1983, 1986, 1989)
- 4 time Russian 1rst All-Star
- 2 time World Championship All-Star
- Russian Player of the Year (1988)
- Played in the NHL All-Star Game (1998)
- Played 921 games in the NHL despite starting his career at 30 years old
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Igor_Larionov
...one of the best passers of all time.
http://www.russianrocket.de/Teammate..._larionov.html (Wayne Gretzky about Igor Larionov)
Definitely, he saw the ice the same as me, passing the puck, hockey sense, probably as similar to me as any player who has played the game

VanIslander 05-12-2007, 06:19 AM to help with analysis
In deciding which'd do better in the regular season we have to process/compare seven teams at the same time, and so I'm simplifying the process for myself by limiting the regular season analysis to the top 16 players on each team: the three 5-man units and the starting goalie. Later, when it's head-to-head playoffs with only two teams to compare, then I'll factor in the fourth line and extra players at every position, powerplays and penalty kills, etcetera. This is just a three-line unit even strength comparison to help with analysis. Take it for what it is. (You could ADD extra analyses before making your rankings. In fact, it's recommended. It'd be great if everyone posted their 1st and 2nd powerplay and penalty kill units.)
