This was a tough choice, but ultimately Kariya's star power wins this for me

Kariya

31g 54a 85pts in his first year.. By far our best season statistically in franchise history

That record is going to stand for a long time i think.

Arnott got a bit of a bad rep when he was here for various things but he was still solid overall for us, and personally I think Kariya is rated too low in this "bracket", even though his time here was short. I voted Kariya.

 

[Jonesey]

Kariya may be seeded low but he was only here for two seasons which in my opinion dropped him a couple spots.

I'd put him in the top 5 for sure, and I was a huge Kariya fan. But once it gets down to the final few, I'm not sure where exactly I'd rank him. Not to be too picky on the "only had 2 seasons here" thing, but I think if he had a few more seasons he'd be a major challenger for number 1. On the same token though, he didn't have much of a choice to leave because he was part of the firesale class of 07, which saw the likes of Kariya, Hartnell, Timonen and Vokoun go out the door.

Woo... I just did a second look at the numbers. Ouch. Uhm, I kinda wish I could change my vote, as much as I love PK...
