Why was my vote not counted.

Why was my vote not counted.

I simply couldn’t qualify a ballot that didn’t include Sergei Makarov.

 

[Yung Rotini]

I fail to see why Ramo is ahead of Hiller. Good list, otherwise.

I withdraw my earlier criticism.

Agreed, but whatever. It's minute.

Also, did we really get Ramo and Cammalleri in the same trade from Montreal? Good lord.

This is a terrible idea for an article. You're basically asking people to rank a bunch of guys that played no more than a handful of games with the team. Who cares how terrible the backups that played 10 games were? It's far from embarrassing because we have Kipprusoff for three of those 5 years

But Kipprusoff is/was terrible.

No. He was above average, just not elite.

He's no Bollig, that's for sure.

 

[InfinityIggy]

No. He was above average, just not elite.

But terrible sometimes.

 

[Ace Rimmer]

But terrible sometimes.

And elite other times. So above average was the median. (mean? average? I don't use these terms on a regular basis I forget which one is proper)

The appropriate term is "mean". "Average would have worked too. They mean the same thing.

"Median" is roughly the middle value in a cluster of values.

This thread is an embarrasment.

This thread is an embarrasment.

For whom?

 

[MuffinMerc]

I still think Irving should have gotten one more game after losing to the Blues that night. Hartley's defensive system was horrendously awful (nonexistent), probably could have thrown in 1 bounce back game.

Ramo is probably playing his best hockey right now. I think he does better without Hiller breathing down his neck.
