Hate him if you must but the answer is MSL.

 

[Hoek]

Martin St. Louis AINEC.

 

[The Macho King]

Msl easily.

 

[VinikToWinIt]

MSL, TJ, then Stralman. At least in semi-recent memory.

 

[These Are The Days]

MSL forever. Stralman has been fantastic. I remember being real stoked when we signed Kuba back in the day too.

 

[chasespace]

MSL. Stralman and Johnson are tied for second

 

[Todd1a]

I forgot Marty but yes maybe Johnson beats him out one day as the best ever signed

 

[2020 Cup Champions]

I forgot Marty but yes maybe Johnson beats him out one day as the best ever signed

He has a long way to go.

 

[The Gongshow]

MSL for sure, Johnson has been great but MSL has done so much more for the team, regardless of how he left the franchise. Had Johnson stayed healthy in the playoffs and maybe won us a cup, there might be some more talk. But Marty all the way

MSL then the Bulin Wall. Both were important to getting that cup win.

I mean even then, MSL has already done that with a similar performance. Johnson has a long way to go, winning a cup as a key member is only a starting point which he still has to do.

MSL then the Bulin Wall. Both were important to getting that cup win.

Khabibulin came by trade. Mike Johnson, Paul Mara, Ruslan Zainullin and a 2nd rounder went back the other way to Phoenix.

 

[Hoek]

He was a free agent though. We had to sign him to a deal after the trade. I guess it depends whether we're counting RFAs.

 

[HowSweeeedeItIs]

Brendan Morrow

 

[Rschmitz]

Only obvious one that I haven't seen mentioned is Andreychuck. Probably our only significant UFA signing in the pre-cap era.
