Robyn Regehr, still chapped at how close the Avs were to having a Regehr-Foote tandem. That would’ve given quite a few forwards nightmares

Martin Straka:
He was more than a complimentary player for Jagr. He was a fantastic puck carrier, blazing fast. He did all of the yeoman's work on that line and did it with flair. I still remember him being one of very few players I ever saw humiliate Ray Bourque. Straka sprinted into the offensive zone, did a full stop up, and when Bourque stopped to maintain his gap, Straka went back into a full sprint within two strides. Went past Bourque like he was standing still (and he was).
Zigmund Palffy:
One of my favorite players ever. Never got the credit he deserved. He played for a hopeless Islanders team during the heart of the deadpuck era and still finished top 10 or 15 a few times. Arguably his best year was with L.A. but he got hurt along with his entire supporting cast.
He is a guy who, if he had the right team around him and was in the right market, he would have been a slam dunk hall of famer (note, I 'm not arguing that he should be given his credentials).
Pavol Demitra (RIP):
Could do it all and do it with swagger. Had a great shot and was a really clever playmaker. He showed himself to the world in the 2010 olympics, but he was an absolute stud for the Blues for several years.

Awesome to see such love for the legendary Ville "Nemo" Nieminen! One of my favorite players ever and such an entertaining character off the ice. NHL followers could possibly get to enjoy his antics in the future also. He just got a job as a head coach in the SHL and has stated several times that his goal is to coach in the NHL.

He was such an exciting player to watch this season. A true warrior. 18 goals in 180 games in Boston and 20 goals in 66 games in Florida??? Now that's a great signing for you.

He had an important role as a mentor to Barkov too, when they were team mates. Barkov would probably give him credit for his success!

a shame how the Islanders are screwing his career
He doesn't need help from the team in screwing up his career. He's doing fine on that one all by himself.

Steve Webb. Guy would jump off the bench, crowd would chant his name, and he would make a B line for guys and hit everything in sight.

Nick Foligno has some of the best hands in the league.
On the Devils, Jesper Bratt is super fun to watch.
