[Machinehead]

Jesus Christmas, this is a good question. Gonna go with only players I saw and occasionally, I will cheat with former Rangers, but I'll try to limit it.

• Anaheim Ducks- Cam Fowler! (Ok, Paul Kariya)
• Arizona Coyotes- Cheating on this one, but Derek Stepan
• Boston Bruins- Zdeno Chara (this was tough, I've liked a lot of their star players. Bergeron, Marchand, Lucic.)
• Buffalo Sabres- Danny Briere
• Calgary Flames- Johnny Hockey
• Carolina Hurricanes- Brett Pesce
• Chicago Blackhawks- Duncan Keith
• Colorado Avalanche- Joe Sakic
• Columbus Blue Jackets- Artemi Panarin (Nash close second, but that was cheating)
• Dallas Stars- Sergei Zubov (Cheating, but not really because he was a great Star)
• Detroit Red Wings- Nick Lidstrom
• Edmonton Oilers- Connor McDavid (I wanna say Gretzky, but I never saw him on the Oilers, so that would be a huge cheat)
• Florida Panthers- Keith Yandle (Not really cheating because Yandle was one of my favorites before the Rangers got him)
• Los Angeles Kings - Well, not f***ing Drew Doughty, that's for sure! (Anze Kopitar)
• Minnesota Wild- Jared Spurgeon
• Montreal Canadiens- PK Subban
• Nashville Predators- Scotty Hartnell (It was Subban here too, but I already picked him - Subban might be my favorite never-Ranger of all-time)
• New Jersey Devils- f*** these guys, but I got nothing against Taylor Hall
• New York Islanders- The GOAT, Anders Lee
• New York Rangers- My team, but Leetch is God
  
• Ottawa Senators- Erik Karlsson (What an upset, I know)
• Philadelphia Flyers- Wayne Simmonds
• Pittsburgh Penguins- Jaromir Jagr (Sort of cheating, but he's Jaromir f***ing Jagr. Sue me. I also like Malkin FWIW)
• San Jose Sharks- I guess I'll just give it to Joe Thornton? Too many to choose from. Their likable players are why I root for this team.
• St Louis Blues- Chris Pronger
• Tampa Bay Lightning- Ondrej Palat (Stralman would be cheating)
• Toronto Maple Leafs- Auston Matthews
• Vancouver Canucks- The Twins
• Vegas Golden Knights- James Neal
• Washington Capitals- Alex Ovechkin
• Winnipeg Jets- Mark Scheifele
