52 Names

[Sam Spade]

NHL allows 52 names to be inscribed on the Cup, the 34 I listed below are automatic (41 reg season games or played in 1 game of the Final) and some are no brainers (staff people) so let's speculate on who the other 18 are. I have no other ideas beyond maybe they petition for Nathan Walker and Boyd. I linked a staff directory at the bottom.

Players:

Backstrom
Beagle
Bowey (played 51 regular season games)
Burakovsky
Carlson
Chaisson (played 61 regular season games)
Connelly
Djoos
Eller
Grubauer
Holtby
Kempny
Kuznetsov
Niskanen
Orlov
Orpik
Ovechkin
Smith-Pelley
Stephenson
Vrana
Wilson

Coaches and staff:
Trotz
Reirdon
Forsythe
Lambert
Nemish (strength and conditioning)
Patrick
Leonsis
McClellan
Mahoney (asst. GM)
Fishman (asst. GM)
Serbus (head trainer)
Miles (head equipment)
Leydig (asst equip)

Not sure but maybe a mod could PIN this?

[Silky mitts]

I think Mitch Korn gets on it, Nathan Walker next likeliest player because he had that assist and the Australia aspect.

 

[Vilica]

Kolzig has that nebulous "development coach" job so they probably can put him on it in staff. Leonhardt and Ohashi as video coaches probably, maybe Tim Barnes as hockey analytics too.

 

[Misery74]

I think the announcers get them too, not sure on that though.

Joe B, Locker, Walton, and Ken Sabourin?

You are missing BMac.

 

[Sam Spade]

Thanks will edit.

Joe B, Locker, Walton, and Ken Sabourin?

Nope, I looked it up. They will get rings but not their name on the Cup unless Caps petition.

I think Mitch Korn gets on it, Nathan Walker next likeliest player because he had that assist and the Australia aspect.

I think you are correct about Korn and it would be well deserved.

 

[Skrudland2Lomakin]

Walker, Boyd and Jerabek seem like they'd have a shot. Gersich is the only one I see being borderline.

 

[Voodoozz]

Do you guys think Jerabek will be there ? I'd be so happy for him.

 

[smd333]

I would think if you got a point in this playoffs you'd get on. Walker and Jerabek both have one. Boyd and Gersich both participated in these playoffs. idk if just suiting up is the bar I always thought it was

 

[stanleycaps18]

Probably both Zach and Ted Leonsis?

 

[PB12]

We want Kolzig!

 

[Sam Spade]

Do you think the Caps petition for Letang and Sbisa as well?

 

[Calicaps]

Do you think the Caps petition for Letang and Sbisa as well?

I'm tempted to infract you for this post.

 

[HunterSThompson]

So 18.

5 players - only Copley didn't play a game in playoffs or regular season so he is out
Jerabek
Walker
Boyd
Gersich
Copley

So leaves 14 staff/ownership

Brett Leonhardt - Video
Tim Ohashi - video
Scott Murray - goalie
Mitch Korn - goalie
Olaf Kolzig - professional dev
Tim Barnes - analytics
Kris Wagner - hockey ops
Steve Bowman - head scout
Chris Patrick - dir player personnel
Steve Richmond - dir. player dev
Raul Fernandez - vice chairman
Shelia Johnson - vice chairman
The next two favorite owners - maybe Mark Lerner

 

[BiPolar Caps]

Taylor Chorney? You have to feel for the guy. Played in 24 games and his one goal was a gw. Caps tried to send him to Hershey but Columbus stepped in and he only got to play in one game for them.

No friggin way, he contributed nothing. I am still amazed that the Pens put a guy who played 21 games with them, 3 in the early playoffs games, Mark Streit on the Cup. As a player, I would be embarrassed by my inclusion when I had zero to do with it. I can't believe Jeff Schultz got his name and actually spent a day with the Cup, it's a complete joke, he earned neither.

Also, I looked at the Pens from last season and they put the team doctor on it, so that's someone I hadn't thought of. I am willing to bet Kolzig is a sure fire one as well.

I don't agree, but it's also not worthy of a lengthy discussion/debate.

Dr. John Klimkiewicz from WOSM would be the Doc.

On a side note, WOSM is awesome. They do a great job.

I don't think players that do not finish the season with a team are eligible.

Thank god, cause Chorney's name does not belong on the Cup the Caps gave blood sweat and tears for.

 

[Sam Spade]

I've seen Jerabek's name a few times, what would the argument for him be other than black ace in the playoffs?

 

[RandyHolt]

Jerabek actually played in the playoffs, and was next man up if they couldn't put Orpik's finger back on. Sure we lost both games, but he got an assist.

 

[Calicaps]

Jerabek was better than Kempny early on. He was overmatched in the 2 games against CBJ, but that doesn't mean he can't improve. I frankly couldn't care less about keeping him one way or the other, but he was good for them in the lead up to the playoffs.
