Fine the way it is.

Just can't put players on such an exclusive list to appease fans.

As I said in the Crosby thread, Malkin is definitely in the top 100. That is not even in debate imo.

Bill Cook, Malkin, Thornton, Pilote over Lemaire, Nieuwendyk, Toews, Keith


How about instead overrating guys who dominated beer league eras, we rank the top 100 based on how good they were at ice hockey.

when was this "beer league" exactly? Are you one of those that acutally think the top 100 should ONLY be players of the past 20 years because of the athletic evolution?

I didn't read the list or take it seriously when I heard that Malkin wasn't in it.

Its a damn shame he was overlooked. His whole career he has been in Ovi and Sids shadow.

I would take him 100 time out of 100 over Ovi and 40 times out of 100 over Sid.

The guy is a beast.

youre aware Ovi will go down as the greatest goalscorer ever, and has 3 HARTS to his name?

I forget its name but there was already a recent book published which fixes a lot of the mistakes on the NHL's top-100 list.

Also, I'm not sure about that 'beer league era' BS. In the late 50s to the 60s up to the expansion, there was a **** tonne of competition because there were only six friggin teams with roster spots. A lot of good players rotted in the minors.

The biggest thing that bugs me about the list is that they put Sundin on there ahead of Iginla. I really can't find an argument there

What does it matter? He'll get more pub for not being on it then if he were...These lists always cause a beef with someone, see the NBA's 50 greatest players list.

His accomplishments speak for themselves.

Right? it's so odd how HfBoards is sh***ing on Ovi after 1 season (and he wasnt even bad this season, just bad for being Ovechkin)
