SCOUTING REPORTS

Coach Hector "Toe" Blake:
raleh believes that Toe is the greatest coach of all-time, even better than Bowman. We can't imagine a better coach for our team than Toe Blake. How great of a coach was he? Well, as a player, he was a five-time all-star, an NHL scoring champ, a Hart Trophy winner, and a three-time Cup champ. Yet most people think coach when they think of Toe Blake. His record of 500-255-159 gives him a winning percentage of .634. His playoff winning percentage is .689. He won eight rings. But stats are just stats. We want to know how he coached, how he picked up the wins. He did it the right way. He hated to lose - a trait that we value very highly in our organization - and he favoured aggressive hockey. He was tough and demanding, but fair. He had a great mind for the game, and his strategies were brilliant. He treated the players like men. And that's why he's a tremendous coach for our team.

G Charlie Gardiner:
A star in the late 20s and early 30s, Chuck Gardiner was a workhorse and an aggressive difference-maker in net. He was named to the first four all-star teams in NHL history - a first-team all-star in 31, 32 and 34, and a second-team all-star in 33. He played virtually every game in his NHL career. In fact, he didn't miss a game in his final seven seasons. Chuck was fast with his hands, feet and reflexes, and he was excellent mentally as well. Our last memories of him are magnificent, as he backstopped the Chicago Black Hawks to their first Stanley Cup title in 34. He died of a brain hemorrhage shortly after winning the ultimate prize in team sports. Chuck was a charter member of the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1945.

D/RW Aubrey "Dit" Clapper:
There's nobody in the draft like Dit. He's the one guy who can do it all. As a forward, he could play on a scoring line, a two-way line or a physical line. As a defenceman, he can play a scoring role, a shutdown role or a physical role. In other words, he's one of the most valuable players in the draft. He's also one of the most dangerous fighters in the draft, and one of the best leaders in the draft. He held the record for most years as a captain with one team for many decades. Dit was a six-time all-star: twice at RW, and four times as a defenceman. He probably would have had a third all-star selection in 1930 if the accolade existed in 1930. Size, skill, strength, hockey sense, leadership, durability, consistency and a tough but clean game are all attributes that Dit has in spades. He was so good that the HHOF selection committee waived the waiting period for him in 1947.

D Carl Brewer:
Carl Brewer brings the aggressiveness, the skill, the all-round game and the leadership that we crave from our players. He has excellent skill with the puck, possessing the ability to skate the puck up the ice or make a crisp pass to a teammate. He's tough as nails and willing to throw the big hit. And he's rock-solid in his own zone, and a tenacious and ferocious competitor on and off the ice. No eligible defenceman not in the HHOF has done more than Carl. He was a big part of the Toronto Maple Leafs Stanley Cup titles in 62, 63 and 64. And he was a four-time all-star - the only defenceman not in the HHOF with four all-star selections. A strong, stubborn, type-A personality, he was one of the smartest players in the league during his career. One of the best leaders in the draft, he led battles over the pension fund and the conduct of Alan Eagleson, and he has been inducted into the Canadian Sports Hall of Fame's builder's class.

D/LW Doug Mohns:
A bit of a poor man's Dit Clapper, Mohns brings much of the same attributes as Dit. Like Dit, he can play on a scoring line, a two-way line or a physical line up front if we need him to, although his offensive and defensive abilities aren't as good as Dit's. And like Dit, he's an accomplished all-round defenceman. We'll be asking him to play on our blue-line. Mohns was nicknamed "Diesel" because of his strength, and the strength in his skating. He's a powerful individual and an excellent skater. He was the only defenceman to record at least 20 goals from 1946 to 1967. He topped double digits in goals several other times. And he was tough, too. We'll be counting on Doug to anchor our second defence pairing, to play on our top power play unit, and to provide some toughness, speed and smarts to our penalty kill.

D Dollard St. Laurent:
A steady, tough, five-time Stanley Cup champion, Dollard will compliment Doug Mohns nicely on our second pairing. Dollard will be counted to play 18-20 minutes per game as our No. 4 defenceman and play an important role on the penalty kill. He wasn't flashy, but he was effective. Much like Jimmy Watson (our No. 4 defenceman in ATD 10), Dollard is the type of player who is having a good game when you don't notice him. Excellent work ethic and does what it takes to win. Numbers aren't spectacular, but he isn't a liability when he has possession of the puck. Played a complimentary role during his five Stanley Cup victories. Wasn't a big star on the blue line - that honour belonged to the Doug Harvey's, Tom Johnson's and Pierre Pilote's of the world - but he was extremely effective in his role as a solid defenceman, and was important for his team's success.

D Ron Greschner:
Ron's skill and all-round game make him a solid anchor for our third pairing. There isn't anything in particular that he excels at from an ATD perspective, but there aren't any holes in his game. He's very effective at advancing the puck, whether it be skating it up ice or passing to a teammate. He's a good quarterback for our second power play unit, and he has a hard, powerful shot. He's a smart defenceman who takes good care of his own zone. We can play him against an opponent's top line, and not have a liability out there. And he plays a good, tough, physical brand of hockey. A good Saskatchewan boy, he played his junior hockey with the New Westminster Bruins, giving him an advantage of having played in our rink and in our community. We feel confident that we can lean on him for 18-20 minutes per game, while playing a secondary role in all situations.

D Steve Smith:
A big, sturdy, physical blue-liner, Steve Smith is an excellent addition to our team as a No. 6 defenceman. Smith was an excellent, robust defenceman for much of his career. He could hit and fight. He cleared the front of the net. He stood up for his teammates. He provided an underrated offensive dimension. Three times he topped 50 points. Another time he hit 40 points. He won three Stanley Cups. Twice he was the top-scoring defenceman on a Cup champion. We feel comfortable with Smitty played 18-20 minutes per game, and playing on our third pairing alongside Ron Greschner. That's a tandem that can handle some minutes against an opponent's top line. He'll also garner some time on the penalty kill. And he's British, so we figure that Smitty and Chuck Gardiner should enjoy tea times, or pub trips, on the road together.

D George Owen:

LW Fred "Bun" Cook:
An aggressive gritty winger who is comfortable setting plays up or finishing them off. We've reunited Bun with his long-time centre Frank Boucher from the famed Bread Line. Bun finished in the top 10 for goals four times. He was top 10 in assists on four other occasions. And four times he was top 10 in points. Solid numbers. Like his brother Bill, Bun wasn't afraid to bring a tough, physical presence. He hit. He played tough. He went into the corners. That's going to make him a valuable presence on the top line, enabling Boucher and Rocket Richard to do what they do best: setting up plays and scoring goals. Bun can pick up rebounds and make passes. He was among the first to use the drop pass. He's a very good complimentary winger on a very dangerous top line.

LW Kevin Stevens:
A tower of power for our second line. A true power forward who loved to score goals, dish out hits and control a game with his size, strength and skill. The first player to ever have 50 goals, 100 points and 200 PIMs in a season. Four straight 40-goal seasons, including two years in which Mario Lemieux was out of the line-up, proving that he wasn't just Mario's lackey. Finished second in league scoring with 123 points in 1991-92. Three-time all-star, including a first-team birth in 1992. Scored over a point-per-game clip in more than 100 playoff games. His ticket to our team is his size, toughness and goal-scoring ability. He's 6'3" and well over 200 pounds. A very, very strong player who's tough to move from in front of the net. Excellent hands in tight and a great scorer's touch. He's mean, he'll open up room for his linemates with his toughness, and he'll finish the chances they create with their speed.

LW Ross Lonsberry:

LW/RW Vic Stasiuk

C Frank Boucher:
One of the top playmaking centres in the draft. When you talk about centres with slick puck and passing skills, and good defensive abilities, Frank Boucher is right near the top with the best of them. He led the league in assists three times. He was second in assists four times. He was top five in points four times. A cerebral, highly-skilled centre who thinks the game at another level. His post-season scoring clip rates among the best for his generation, and his totals in 1928 - 10 points in nine games - are remarkable for his time, considering that this dandy playmaker couldn't pass the puck forward in the offensive zone at this time. Played an incredibly clean game, winning the Lady Byng Award seven times in eight years. But he wasn't one-dimensional. He was awarded several retro-Selkes by Ultimate Hockey, and while those retro awards really aren't worth the paper they're printed on, they point to a consistent, conscientious presence in his own zone.

C Pat Lafontaine:
A bit of a contrast from Boucher. Boucher's the dazzling, smart, two-way playmaker. Lafontaine's the offensively aggressive pivot who can dominate with his goal-scoring ability and his playmaking skills. As a goal-scorer, he topped 40 goals seven times, including six straight seasons from 1987-88 to 1992-93 - a streak only interrupted by a knee injury in 1993-94. It's remarkable when you consider how little talent he had with him on Long Island in his final three years with the club. That lack of talent really diminished his opportunities for assists. Once he had a winger worthy of his talents in Buffalo (Alex Mogilny), Lafontaine responded with a 95-assist season. It takes a special playmaker to average more than an assist per game. He takes a hit to make a play, he's fearless in the offensive zone, and he can take over a game with his skill.

C Butch Goring:
A solid, consistent, reliable pivot who brings everything that we want from our two-way line centre. He topped a point-per-game three times, and he was close to that clip on three other occasions. He's a good playmaker. He's very smart. He's very, very good in his own end. And he can log big minutes against the opponent's top line. He won a Conn Smythe Trophy in 1981 for his performance with the New York Islanders. He was an important part of the Islanders dynasty in the mid-80s. He wasn't big or overly physical, but he was a smart, two-way pivot. Perhaps the greatest part of his legacy is the wide-spread belief that Butch Goring was the missing/final piece of the Islanders Stanley Cup dynasty. Acquired prior to the deadline in 1980, once the Islanders had him, they went on to win four Cups and 19 post-season series.

C/LW Bob Bourne:

C Bill Hay

RW Maurice "Rocket" Richard:
A one-of-a-kind player in the draft. One of the most exciting players ever, one of the great competitors ever, one of the most mercurial players ever, and one of the best goal scorers ever. There's never been a better playoff goal scorer than Richard, either. Five times he led the league in goals. Five times a runner-up in points. Led the league in penalty minutes once, too. A first or second-team all-star a remarkable 14 straight seasons. Eight Stanley Cup championships. Eighty-two goals in 133 career post-season games - a remarkable total considering that most of his career was played in the Original 6's toughest time to score. A game-breaker, a fierce, tenacious competitor who hated to lose, and the captain of the Habs last four Cup champions. He doesn't need anybody to open up room for him - he'll open up room for himself. There's never been another like him, and there'll never be another like him. Combined with Frank Boucher's playmaking abilities, we have a first line that can and will provide instant offence.

RW Theoren Fleury:
A GBC and raleh favourite, Fleury brings dynamic speed, excellent goal-scoring and playmaking abilities, fearless play, a rare level of competitiveness, a big-game mentality and an ability to get under the opponent's skin. He's not just a fourth line agitator - he can score, he can pass and he'll take hits to make plays. His build allows him to absorb the punishment that you would expect from his fearless play. Won a Stanley Cup in 1989. Three times he was the top scorer in the playoffs when his team was eliminated. Every scout for the next 20 years will be looking for the next Fleury: a pint-sized forward with game-breaking offensive ability, tenacity, a big-game mentality and a desire to be involved physically. He took penalties, but the beauty of an agitator of Fleury's ilk is that he'll take an opponent with him to the penalty box, and that opponent will usually be handed the extra minor.

RW/C Trevor Linden:
GBC couldn't pass up on his all-time favourite player in the 14th round. Linden brings excellent mobility for a big man, physical play, hockey sense and a decent scorer's touch to our third line RW spot. He scored 30 goals six times, and likely would have done it a seventh time if not for the lockout in 1995. His big-game mentality is his biggest calling card, though. He was a point-per-game player until he was in his 30s, a remarkable feat for a player who was never a point-per-game player in the regular season. He was the league's ironman from March of 1994 to December of 1996. Teamed with Goring and Bourne, he gives a line with guys who are strong two-way players, excellent leaders, strong skaters, smart players and clutch performers. Trevor is also a great leader off the ice and in the community. He won the King Clancy Award in 1995, and a B.C. volunteer award in 2002.

RW Terry O'Reilly:
The best fourth line RW in the draft, and maybe the best fourth line player in the draft. Terry O'Reilly brings every attribute we could ever want in a fourth line forward: leadership, character, toughness, gumption and skill. He's at his best when he plays within his limitations, but he has offensive capability. His career high was 90 points (in a season in which he was a plus 40 and had 211 penalty minutes). He also had seasons of 77 and 61 points, and several 50 point seasons, all the while providing the fearless, aggressive physical play that made him one of the most popular players in franchise history. Many call him the quintessential Bruin, a player who lived up to the Big, Bad Bruins team nickname. The only thing he doesn't bring is exceptional speed, but he makes up for it with hard work, hustle, determination and underrated hockey sense.

#12- LW Wayne Cashman

"'Cash' was a fierce cornerman for 18 NHL seasons, all with the Boston Bruins. Often playing on a line with Ken Hodge and Phil Esposito, his job was to go into the corners and battle for the loose pucks. Using his size and feared reputation, more often than not he would come out of the corner with the puck and set up either Hodge or Espo with a good scoring opportunity. Though he put up decent offensive numbers himself, Cash's performance over the years could never be measured by statistics."

#7- C Phil Esposito

"He was the centerman who held the greatest scoring record of them all before Wayne Gretzky came along and broke it - 76 goals in a single season in 1970-71. Espo won the Art Ross Trophy five times, the Hart Trophy twice, the Lester B. Pearson Award twice and the Lester Patrick Trophy for service to hockey in the United States. What's more, he was a ten-time All-Star and represented Canada in the 1972 Summit Series, the 1976 Canada Cup and the 1977 World Championship. While a member of the Boston Bruins, he scored 40 or more goals in seven straight seasons and 50 or more in five straight seasons. In his 76-goal season, he also recorded an amazing 76 assists for a league record at the time of 152 points." - Legends of Hockey

-2 Stanley Cups (1970, 1972)
-5 Art Ross Trophies (1969, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1974)
-2 Hart Trophies (1969, 1974)
-2 Lester B. Pearson Awards (1971, 1973)
-6-time NHL First All-Star Team (1969, 1970, 1971, 1972, 1973, 1974)

-8 times in the top five in goals (4th, 2nd, 1st, 1st, 1st, 1st, 1st, 1st)

#24- RW Ken Hodge Sr.

"Hodge played on the Bruins' number one line with Esposito and Wayne Cashman and his confidence exploded. He started to use his strength to hold onto the puck and create scoring chances instead of fighting, and he became one of the best scorers in the league because of his excellent shot. In 1968-69, he scored 45 times, one of the best seasons in league history."- LOH

#9- LW Johnny Bucyk

"One very bright spot of the 1950's was the arrival, via a 1957 trade with the Detroit Red Wings, of future Hockey Hall of Fame left wing, John Bucyk. "Chief" played 21 season in a Bruins uniform, held every team career offensive record for over 20 years and, to this day, remains the team's all-time leading goal scorer. He would go on to serve as team captain for five seasons and had his name engraved on the Stanley Cup twice and was rewarded with the Lady Byng Trophy as the league's most gentlemanly player twice."- bostonbruins.com

#24- C Bernie Federko

"He was the most consistent player in the history of the Blues and could be counted upon to continue his dominance during the playoffs, despite tougher scrutiny by opposing teams.

...Leading a rush into an opposing zone, Federko wasn’t one to overpower defensemen with strength or blow past them with speed or dazzling moves. Instead, he used his great vision and patience to set up the offense. Former Blues coach Jacques Demers, under whom Federko played some of his best hockey, called him his "general on the ice." Federko was also resilient, missing just 60 games during his career. Combined regular season and playoffs, Federko had 404 goals and 832 assists for 1,236 points in 1,091 games." - stlouisblues.com

RW Jerry Toppazzini

"Topper earned his stripes as a hard-driving winger who could kill penalties and score his share of goals. In 1957-58, he set, what was at the time, an NHL record, scoring 7 short-handed goals in one season."- LOH

#12- LW Don Maloney

"His scoring is a bonus. He's a bumper and a grinder. He reminds me of Bert Olmstead, the great left winger on the Montreal Canadiens power play two decades ago."- Fred Shero

"He's like (Wayne) Cashman to me. He gets the puck out of the corner. It's been a long time since I didn't have to help out in that respect."- Phil Esposito

"Left-winger Don Maloney was a splendid offensive player who could also check and kill penalties. His versatility and work ethic served him well in a career that lasted nearly 800 games and spanned three decades."- LOH

#19- C Rick MacLeish

"Blessed with a quick wrist shot and natural offensive instincts, he topped the 30-goal mark seven times in 14 big league seasons... Over the next two seasons he continued to produce on offense but was asked to take on penalty killing and defensive responsibility. MacLeish's excellence was a key component on the Flyers' consecutive Stanley Cup wins in 1974 and 1975. During the first title run he led all playoff goal scorers with 13 goals and 22 points. Overall, MacLeish was named to play in the 1976, 1977 and 1980 NHL all-star games... During the late 70s, MacLeish was a top two-way player for Philly."- LOH

#16- RW Rick Middleton

"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... In 1981 and 1984 Middleton was a member of the Canadian team in the Canada Cup. But 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."- LOH

LW Johnny Wilson

"In the Motor City, Johnny Wilson soon established himself as an extremely durable foot soldier who, over the course of 580 consecutive games played between 1952 and 1961, earned the nickname "Ironman." During Wilson's extended display of durability, he savoured three Stanley Cup victories with the Wings before joining the Blackhawks from 1955 to 1957."- LOH

"A scorer as a junior, Wilson switched to a defensive role in the pros. "When I came to Detroit, Jack Adams told me they had enough scorers," Wilson said. "He wanted guys who could go up and down the ice and backcheck, so that's what I did.""- DRW.com

#22- C Rick Meagher

"A quick centre who could check diligently and create scoring chances, Rick Meagher played nearly 700 NHL games for four different clubs. His best years came with the St. Louis Blues in the 1980s."- LOH

RW Allan "Scotty" Davidson

"Allan "Scotty" Davidson was a one of the more phenomenal talents of his time. He dominated in junior and was an impact player in the NHA before he was lost while serving his country in World War I. He was remembered as a powerful skater with a lethal shot who back-checked responsibly and played the game cleanly."- LOH

C Pierre Mondou

"Centre Pierre Mondou was a talented offensive player who checks and kills penalties. He produced at all levels of hockey and was a key role player then leader on the Montreal Canadiens."- LOH


Defense

Brad Park

"In just about any other era, Brad Park would have been considered the best defenseman of his generation. He had size and played aggressively, taking care of business in his own zone. Offensively, he was a pinpoint passer and a deceptive stickhandler, abilities which made him a natural and potent power-play threat. He had the skating speed and the instincts to join the rush, providing his team with a fourth attacker."- Legends of Hockey

Emile 'Butch' Bouchard

"Bouchard developed into a tough stay-at-home defenseman whose physical game was a superb complement to defense partner Doug Harvey, one of the game's all-time great rushing blueliners. And it shouldn't be overlooked that Bouchard's exceptional hockey sense and accurate passing often started the offensive rushes for which the Canadiens became famous in the 1940s and 1950s. Physically, Bouchard was remarkably strong and often broke up fights on the ice by grabbing hold of each combatant with his enormous hands. To his credit, he never abused his powerful attributes and most opponents wisely avoided provoking him. In turn, he rarely fought."- LOH

Brian Leetch

"Leetch made up for all this lost time in 1993-94 as the Rangers won their first Stanley Cup in more than 50 years. He led the way as the top scorer in the post season and was the Conn Smythe trophy winner as the most valuable player of the playoffs, becoming the first American-born player to win the award." - LOH

Charlie Huddy

"Easily distinguishable by his big black moustache, Huddy was one of those players who was solid at every aspect of the game, but not great at any of them. His hockey sense was his most outstanding skill. Defensively he was able to read the oncoming rush very well, often forcing the puck carrier to stay on the perimeter of the ice. His anticipation helped him offensively too. He was very smart about pinching in from the point, as well as joining rushes as a trailer... A willing shot block, Charlie relied on his strong skating game and brainy approach more than brawn."- Joe Pelletier

Mike Grant

"Mike Grant, the son of a Montreal blacksmith, was just eleven years old when he won three speed skating titles in the under-12, under-14, and under-16 age groups. He took his skating prowess to the hockey rink and was to become known as one of the original rushing defencemen in the sport... It was said of Grant that he "was a durable competitor and a wonderful all-around hockeyist." "- LOH

"The Shamrock defence was not weakened by the absence of Tansey for he could not have improved on Mike Grant's play. The old Victoria cover point never showed up to better advantage. He played his usual steady game at cover point and his lifts were as dangerous as ever, but the Winnipeg defence men kept a keen look out for them."- Backcheck: A Hockey Retrospective

Doug Barkley

"He emerged as a prominent player during the 1963-64 season, when Barkley's 11 goals led all NHL defensemen and were the most tallied by a Red Wings blueliner since Marcel Pronovost also counted 11 times in 1958-59. Barkley's 115 penalty minutes that season were also a team high."- DRW.com

"Handling offense as well as defense with consummate ease, Barkley was quickly touted as find of the year. During an era when defensemen played defense, Barkley lead all NHL backliners in scoring (with 11 goals) during the 1963-64 season. As Doug's play improved, so did the Red Wings'. In 1964-65, Detroit finished on top of the NHL for the first time in eight years and loomed as a playoff contender as long as Barkley patrolled the defense"- Detroit Red Wing's Greatest Moments and Players

Don Awrey

"One the ice he was a mean and miserable S.O.B., not afraid to bend the rules using to stop him from using his hands, feet, a well positioned stick and his nasty high elbows to stop an opponent.

Awrey was the consummate team player who always put the team's fortunes go ahead of any personal accomplishments. He was a classic defensive defenseman who got the same kick out of blocking a shot as of scoring a goal."- Joe Pelletier

Goal

Georges Vezina

"The first thing that pops into my mind is that he (Vezina) always wore a toque, a small, knitted hat with no brim in Montreal colours - bleu, blanc et rouge. I also remember him as the coolest man I ever saw, absolutely imperturbable...He stood upright in the net and scarcely ever left his feet; he simply played all his shots in a standing position. Vezina was a pale, narrow-featured fellow, almost frail-looking, yet remarkably god with his stick. He'd pick off more shots with it than he did with his glove."- Frank Boucher

"In the realm of extraordinary goaltenders through the NHL's long history, it is difficult to judge where Georges Vezina would rank. Hockey was a different game during Vezina's era - goaltenders were forbiddeen to drop to the ice to stop shots. Nevertheless, it is fair to make the claim that he is among the greatest the game has ever known."- LOH

Al Rollins

"For the first year, he simply practiced and traveled with the team while reviewing all aspects of goals scored with coach Hap Day. Then, during the following season, Turk Broda stepped back to allow Rollins to become number-one in net. The timing was right. The Leafs' defensive corps became rock solid, clearing the way for Rollins to win the Vezina Trophy for the fewest goals allowed. In the Cup finals that year, defenseman Bill Barilko scored his famous championship marker against the Canadiens as Rollins happily watched from the other end of the ice.

After one additional season in Toronto, Rollins was traded with a package of players to the Chicago Blackhawks for goaltender Harry Lumley in 1952. In the Windy City, Rollins found the club's affairs to be disorganized. He noted that in one game, he faced more breakaways than he'd seen during all three of his years in Toronto. But his heroic efforts to prop up the sagging Hawks didn't go unnoticed. He earned second spot behind Gordie Howe for the Hart Trophy as the league's MVP in 1953. Then, the next year, he took the Hart for himself."- LOH

The Kenora Thistles
"...an early amateur men's ice hockey team based in Kenora, Ontario, Canada and formed in 1885 as a senior team by a group of 'Lake of the Woods' lumbermen. The club is notable for winning the Stanley Cup as an amateur team in 1907. The town is the smallest in population to have ever won the Stanley Cup"

The Coach:

Glen Sather

The Players:

"Mark Messier's nickname, "the Moose," is a tribute to his size, strength and determination. A player renowned for his leadership abilities and one of the all-time leading NHL scorers...He was a powerful skater who combined playmaking skill and a goal-scoring touch with the toughness necessary to survive and thrive in the corners...Like Gordie Howe, Messier is credited with being the most complete player of his generation. He was a power forward, a two-way left winger and sometime center with talent and overwhelming power and size and an unpredictable mean streak. " (Legends of Hockey)
Regular Season: 1756 games, 694 goals, 1193 assists, 1887 points
Playoffs: 236 games, 109 goals, 186 assists, 295 points

#2 Nikolai Sologubov (D):
"But the most researched experts know the title of greatest Russian defensemen is a coin toss between Fetisov and Nikolai Sologubov...the man some called "The Russian Bobby Orr. Sologubov was the first thunderous Soviet body checker. More uniquely, he was one of the first in the world to leave his position to lead attacks into the enemy zone"(Greatest Hockey Legends)

#7 Joe Mullen (RW):
"He excelled at the finesse game as he was an outstanding skater and super sniper. He was dangerous with the puck, and consistent. He was a 35-45 goal threat almost every year in his prime. But he was very conscious of his defensive responsibilities and played a tough game despite his small size." (Greatest Hockey Legends)
Regular Season: 1062 games, 502 goals, 561 assists, 1063 points

Regular Season: 285 wins, 81 shutouts, 2.08 gaa
Playoffs: 20 wins, 7 shutouts, 1.88 gaa

#15 Anders Hedberg (RW):
"Hedberg is a fantastic pick at this point in the draft. People don't pay much attention to him because his big years were in the WHA. Was an effective 2 way player in the NHL. Would have put up big numbers there too if he played on a run & gun team." (pappyline)
NHL Regular Season: 465 games, 172 goals, 225 assists, 397 points

#55 Lennart Svedberg (D):
"Most experts regard Svedberg to be the most talented Swedish defenseman ever...He was an exceptionally creative defenseman who was a joy to watch...His unpredictable moves and effortless skating made him extremely hard to stop. He was a Paul Coffey type of player in regards of skating and offensive play...Those who saw him play will never forget his high speed rushes over the ice that captured fans everywhere...He was a "Michelangelo" on ice." (1972SummitSeries.com)
Career Statistics: 211 games, 92 goals, 185 points
Playoffs: 6 games, 2 goals, 6 points

#5 Mike Ramsey (D):

#21 Bobby Baun, D

His game?check out "irrepressible". Look up the term "hard rock" in the dictionary and there would be a picture of #21.

A prototypical defensive defenceman, Baun's overtime goal in game six of the 1964 finals gave the Leafs a new life, and they beat the Wings in the final game, at home, 4-0 to win their third straight Stanley Cup. His overtime goal was scored on a fractured ankle. Earlier that game, Baun was taken off on a stretcher after being felled by a slapshot. He returned, ankle frozen and taped, to score what Sports Illustrated ranked as the 17th greatest sports moment in the 20th century. However to me what was even more amazing than coming back in that game as he was likely running on adrenalin at that point, was that two nights later he would play Game 7 and help the Leafs win the Cup without missing a shift

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.

The only thing I could add was that Baun was one of the most courageous players the Leafs had in the 60's. For a time, Baun was the only player to stand up to John Ferguson. And, when Baun left the Leafs the first time, the Leafs' downhill slide started.

#4 Jean Beliveau

Jean was regal on the ice and and humble and diplomatic off the ice. He was the blueprint for the quebec superstar hockey player. Players like Lafleur Rod Gilbert Gilbert Perrault and Mario Lemiuex all learned the game watching jean.

He was a tough player large man at 6'3" He was a great stickhandler he moved effortlessly across the ice using his long graceful strides.He thrived on instinct and outdistanced most opponents using his long reach. He won the cup 10 times and 5 of them were as captain no other nhlcaptain has ever been presented the cup as often as he.

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. He was nicknamed after a popular French song of the day by the same name, "le Gros Bill," and in all he played on an incredible 10 Stanley Cup-winning teams as a member of the Montreal Canadiens.

#1 Turk Broda, G

He was the best money goalies of his time. Coach Hap Day had to constantly ride him to keep his reflexes sharp and his weight down, making him face shooters without a stick for 15 minutes every practice, and trailing him while skating laps, shouting for him to “join the race.†But there wasn’t a more clutch goaltender in the history of hockey. In 12 full years, WWII cost him 2 full years and the most of a third, he won 5 Stanley Cups, and got Toronto to the Finals 8 times. His solid 2.53 goals against average became a stellar 1.98 in the playoffs. Jack Adams said, “Turk Broda didn’t have a nerve in his whole body. He could tend goal in a tornado and never blink an eye.†BM67. He retired after playing only one game in the 1951-52 season. Broda was accorded a special night at the Gardens by Conn Smythe, one of the rarest honors bestowed upon a Leaf. That night came on December 22, 1951, and players and executives from Toronto, the opposing Bruins and every other NHL team gathered to pay respects to one of the greatest goalies of all time.

#33 Zdeno Chara

The tallest person ever to play in the NHL.. A 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.Chara plays a complete game plays a mean uncompromising crease -clearer who is a super human mammoth on the ice using his size and reach to spoil the enemies attack. He boast a overpowering shot and is a proficient take charge puck mover due to his increasing mobility and surprising top flight speed. He is also a force when it comes to the powerplay where he takes on the roll of the immovable slot man.

#7 Tim Horton

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

#26 Mats Naslund

Steve Shutt, Bob Gainey, Dickie Moore, Toe Blake, Aurele Joliat, Bert Olmstead, Frank Mahovlich, Joe Malone. All honored in the hockey hall of fame, all of them great left wingers that played for the Montreal Canadiens.

But, none of them hold the Canadiens record for most points in a season by a left winger. That honor belongs to a five foot, seven inch, one hundred and sixty pound player born in Sweden, named Mats Naslund.

Naslund's best personal offensive season in the NHL was in 1985-86 when he scored 43 goals and 110 points. The fantastic regular season was capped with an amazing Stanley Cup championship with a finals victory over the Calgary Flames. In 20 playoff games he produced 19 points and was a candidate for the Conn Smythe trophy, given to the MVP of the postseason.

During the 1980's there was no more popular player in Montreal than Mats Naslund. Given the nickname "the Little Viking", he was a very durable player who just mussed two dozen games during his first 10 yrs in the nhl.

Naslund wowed hockey fans with his combination ofspeed, quickness, and determination.A quick skater, he darted around the ice, always hustling, always giving his all. His work ethic was supplemented by a pair of fast hands that allowed him to indulge his creativeness with the puck. Mats Naslund quickly inherited Guy Lafleur's status as the team's most dynamic and biggest offensive star.
Mats Naslund was driven by a desire to prove that he could exceed in the NHL, and furthermore dispel the notions of Swedish players not being tough enough to survive the rigors of playing in the NHL.
Mats Naslund taught us to appreciate players that weren’t from Canada, he proved to us that heart was just as important as one’s size; he excited us every time he touched the puck, and above all he showed us all that he was one of the best hockey players in the world.

-"I'd say right now he's the most powerful offensive individual we've had on the team since Guy Lafleur.†- Bob Gainey 1985
-Mats was also selected as the left winger on the NHL's all rookie team.
His 71 points set a record for Canadiens rookies
-Naslund would lead the Canadiens in playoff scoring in four consecutive yrs.
“Canadiens goal scored by number twenty six… Mats Nasluuuund!!!
-legendary Canadiens public address announcer ClaudeMouton

#11 Bob Nevin,RW

Nevin's a versatile, all-around forward who killed penalties and played on the power play. He was part of two successful Stanley Cup drives in Toronto.He was a fine playmaker and goals scorer playing right wing on a line with Frank Mahovlich and Red Kelly, Nevin's hard work in the corners helped "the Big M" set a Leafs record with 48 goals that season. He himself scored 21 times. Flamboyance was hardly Nevin’s long suit, but he made his mark on Broadway, playing eight seasons and 505 games. He captained the team from 1965 to 1971 and gained a solid reputation as one of the National Hockey League’s best defensive forwards. Nevin developed into a tireless skater and one of the top defensive wingers in the league. His nose for the net made him a valuable and consistent two-way forward.

#14 Dave Reid RW

Dave is a perfect fit for the checking line. Reid looks very much at home playing a less-than-fancy, dump-and-charge style of play His game possessed a tenacious defensive play and streak scoring outbursts, especially the odd cluster of shorthanded goals.Reid's patience and hard work paid off when it is time to run at a Stanley Cup

#26 Allan Stanley,D

While with the Rangers Stanley was a superstar - but not offensively. He was a solid defensive blueliner who eventually would become outstanding enroute to a Hall of Fame career.

Toronto Maple Leafs received Stanley for Jim Morrison. from the Bruins.

Unlike in New York, Toronto fans were very appreciative of Stanley's textbook defense and subtle majesty.

Stanley would prove yet another franchise wrong when he became a fixture on the Leafs' championship teams in the 1960s.Allan Stanley ranks as one of the greatest defensemen to ever wear Maple Leaf blue and white.

Allan Stanley was the best defenceman to ever play in front of me. Stanley could play the angles, had a marvelous poke check - Gordie Howe would never skate on Stanley’s side if he could avoid it.--Johnny Bower

Stanley became a bit of an offensive presence in the era before Bobby Orr redefined a defenseman's offensive role. Stanley was a pinpoint passer and as a result he often saw time on the Leafs' power play units.

He was often teamed with Tim Horton, another big veteran who knew a lot about positional play, and was a large part of the league's, and perhaps history's, best defensive unit with Carl Brewer, Bobby Baun and Marcel Provonost. Stanley also used his veteran savvy in the offensive zone and was placed on the Leafs' powerplay because of his accurate passes. Beginning in 1960, rumours began to circulate about his retirement. That season Stanley was voted to the league's Second All-Star Team. The next season there were more rumours and once again Stanley was an alternate All-Star. He ended up playing 10 seasons in Toronto, finally living up to his last name when the Maple Leafs won the Cup in 1962, the first of his four Cup wins with the team. His final title came in 1967, and after one more season with Toronto, he moved to the Philadelphia Flyers in 1968. He finally retired in 1969 at the age of 43.

He was inducted into the Hockey Hall of Fame in 1981 along with John Bucyk, another survivor of many NHL campaigns, and Stanley's former teammate in Toronto, Frank Mahovlich.

Allan has to rank as one of the greatest defensive back liners in the history of the NHL
