10 favourite (and least favourite) Flames players

[super6646]

Saw a similar thread on CP, so I thought it would be interesting to do something similar here on hf. Doesn't have to be in a particular order (mine won't be), so here it goes:

Favourite:

1. Iginla
2. Fleury
3. Giordano
4. Gaudreau
5. Kipper
6. Gelinas
7. Otto (totally random, just loved his name as a kid)
8. MacInnis
9. Tkachuk
10. Backlund

Hm: Lindholm, Huselius, Neon Dion, Conroy

Least:

1. Gilmour (thanks for starting the dismemberment of our once beautiful team you f***er)
2. Kidd (his 95-96 performance makes Elliott's meltdown look elementary)
3. Neal
4. Hiller
5. MacDonald
6. Grossmann
7. Elliott
8. Brouwer
9. St Louis
10. Wideman

HM: Glass, Nieuwendyk (would be top 5 if not for Iggy)

[Deen]

I seriously hated Stajan even though he is a nice guy.

 

[Johnny Hoxville]

I hated Drury, because he was a baby. And Tanguay, because he was a sour puss baby. Brad Stuart is on my list as well.

I can't rank the players as I loved them all...

To all the Flames players I've loved before
Who traveled in and out my door
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the Flames players I've loved before
To all the Flames players I once caressed
And may I say, I've held the best
For helping me to grow, I owe a lot, I know
To all the Flames players I've loved before
The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I tried to stay
The winds of change continued blowing
And they just carried me a way
To all the Flames players who shared my life
Who now are someone else's wifi
I'm glad they came along
I dedicate this song
To all the Flames players I've loved before
To all the Flames players who cared for me
Who filled my nights with ecstasy
They live within my heart
I'll always be a part
Of all the Flames players I've loved before
The winds of change are always blowing
And every time I tried to stay
The winds of change continued blowing
And they just carried me way
To all the Flames players we've loved before
Who traveled in and out our door
We're glad they came along
We dedicate this song
To all the Flames players we've loved before
To all the Flames players we've loved before
Who traveled in and out our doors
We're glad they came along
We dedicate this song
To all the Flames players we've loved, before
