I'm going to leave this thread up, even though Jake got another vote after this was posted.

Also, Dumoulin will be the next player added.

Staalbot.

Jake.

He hasn't forced us to trade him, yet.

Guentzel knows what he has to do to become #8 on the list, but for now, it's Staal.

 

[SHOOTANDSCORE]

I'm about to throw this entire string of polls into disarray.

Add Lemieux.

Still think Talbot... if not for his two goals in Game 7 against Detroit...then the wings would have been back to back champs.

Jake

 

[Tom Hanks]

Get Staal over the line so I can finally vote for someone else.

Staal’s monster SHer in Game 4 changed the series. Without that goal Detroit likely goes up 3-1.

Jake. Staal had some big moments for us, but Jake has put up historic numbers in the playoffs. That and Staal wanted to leave and Jake is still here making 750K for another year.

Just my .02, but don't you think the loser should be #9 rather than go back into the poll like we do with the prospects polls?

The difference is that Staal was a monster penalty killer for the Pens and was scoring short handed goals all year. Talbot was an easy going, fun fourth line player that wasnt expected to score, let alone twice in Game 7. This isn't a poll about who the best Pens players were/are, its a poll about our favorites and I just figured there were a lot of things that Max did that would have endeared him to the fans. Yeah it was painfully disgusting to see Max in a flyers uniform, but I try not to hold that against him.

Well, I disagree with that being done for the prospects polls so I'm happy it isn't being done in these polls.

But but but, he doesn't fit the Sid/Geno era.

Fair enough, just figured it would save time. especially in this pool where the field is so much larger than prospects pool is. To each their own though.

I mean, that SH goal was probably my favorite moment of the Red Wings series tbh. You could tell the team was going to win from there.

Okay, one of them is (finally) leading by a single vote. I'm gonna close it.
