I expected to have my list in by now, but I have no desktop access till Monday. If I can still get it in under the wire, I'll send it.
Here is iconic Howie Meekers to Wingers of all time-He has played and seen most.1.Gordie Howe.2.Guy Lafleur.3.Bobby Hull.4.Mike Bossy.5.M.Richard.6.Jackson.7.Ted.Lindsay.8.Frank Mahovlich9.Dickie Moore.There is more to stats to game of Hockey you need to understand that-

If there's a list of the 9 best wingers ever and Jagr isn't on it, it holds zero weight in my opinion.
That and having Moore and Jackson in the top 10 list.
The others all have a case, as do 2 Russians and several other guys but really Jackson and Moore?

Jackson and Moore were very high on THN's top 100 list, a well
If he saw Busher, then he saw Conacher. Jackson above Conacher is... Interesting, to say the least. And certainly contrary to canon.
What puzzles me is the absence of Conacher. If he saw Busher, then he saw Conacher. Jackson above Conacher is... Interesting, to say the least. And certainly contrary to canon.
For the record, the Habs did something of a best of the century in the mid-80. Red Fisher basically alluded that the choice at LW (Moore) could have gone either way, with Joliat being the other player (the ceremony where Joliat tripped on the ice...)
Lists are still trickling in, so I'm extending the list submission period for at least a few more days. Better than excluding anyone who is willing to participate.
Agree...keep em coming
One would think that the last couple of drips should have been dropped by now. I've seen the vidioes.
You cant just set a last date for submissions, but then just skip it. I dont like to have been forced to put my list in the last minute possible, just to see the date dropped just after.
Just finished reading this whole thread and great discussion. One thing I noticed was when talk of the players of 90's/00's I hear names like Naslund and LeClair being mentioned as sure things in the top 60.
Where does the general consensus fall on where Tkachuk would rank? Outside top 60? Around LeClair? Just wondering how people think he stacks up with some of these guys.
Tkachuk made the list, but well behind Naslund and LeClair who are together in the 40's.
Naslund had the Hart finishes, the goal finishes, the VsX.
LeClair had the goal finishes, the AS nods and the consistency.
Tkachuk couldn't compete with either guy in any of the above categories.
I had Leclair in the 40s, Tkachuk in the 50s and Naslund somewhere on the Moon.Just finished reading this whole thread and great discussion. One thing I noticed was when talk of the players of 90's/00's I hear names like Naslund and LeClair being mentioned as sure things in the top 60.
