Atlanta: Ilya Kovelchuk

Boston: Bobby Orr (this guy changed the game, sorry Ray)

Buffalo: Hasek (don’t know why Perreault is picked so often, Hasek had more of a winners competitiveness)

Calgary: No-brainer, Gilmour. Without him, they don’t win the Cup in ’89

Carolina: Ron Francis (great as a whaler too)

Chicago: Bobby Hull (honourable mention-denis savard)

Colorado: Patrick Roy, but I’m glad to see posters recognizing Stastny.

Columbus: Geoff Sanderson

Dallas: Mike Modano (homourable to Bobby Smith)

Detroit: Stevie Y (I agree with the did-more-with-less)

Edmonton: 99 (honourables to 17 & 77)

Florida: Vanbiesbrouk (honourable to Brian Skrudland, very underrated leader, without him they don’t go to the final, ask Dallas)

Los Angeles: I can’t believe no one has picked Gretzky. Yeah, he is more identified with Edm but Robitaille and Nichols took off playingwith 99. He puyt LA on the map. Dionne never won anything.

Minnesota: Marian Gaborik

Montreal: Maurice Richard (honourables to about 20 players)

Nashville: Kimmo Timonen

New Jersey: Marty

New York Islanders: Bryan Trottier

New York Rangers: Mark Messier

Ottawa: Hossa (soon to be Spezza)

Philadelphia: Tim Kerr (I would pick my grandma ahead of Clarke just out of principle)

Phoenix: Dale Hawerchuck (very underrated)

Pittsburgh: 66 (honourable to 77)

St Louis: Brett Hull (I hate to say this)

San Jose: Owen Nolan (having since retired to the Leafs)

Tampa: Vinny

Toronto: Sittler (honourable to Wade Belak)

Vancouver: Have to go Linden on this one. A leader in his prime

Washington: Rod Langway

Hull was there for over a decade! Hull is the greatest Blue ever!

Toronto has had a dozen players better that Gilmour throughout its history!

I think Yzerman deserves it just as much as Howe does.
