Idea taken from @Elvs from the Ducks board. Here's the premise:
The games played criteria unfortunately means that some notable players like Matt Duchene, Peter Forsberg, Hal Gill etc don't meet the criteria and hence won't be eligible.

As we're waiting for hockey to return, I'm making a longer series of polls. The rules are simple. Vote for the best player in franchise history. How you determine who the best player is (peak, longevity, importance, PR value etc) is entirely up to you.
This series, if I stay on schedule, will take 36 days to conclude. Every day there will be a forwards poll. Every second day there will be a forwards/defensemen poll, and every sixth day there will be a forwards/defenseman/goaltender poll.
In total, we'll be ranking the 36 best forwards, the 18 best defensemen and the 6 best goaltenders in franchise history. Because those are the numbers needed to fill three full line ups.
When you're voting, just vote for the best player available and don't mind the lineups, as the top three forwards won't necessarily all be on the first line etc. The lineups are just there for fun, and I'll move players around based on what lines I think makes sense.
Oh, and I should mention the criteria for players to be included in the rankings. Skaters must have played at least 120 games in a Ducks jersey. For goalies it's 50 games.
The games played criteria unfortunately means that some notable players like Matt Duchene, Peter Forsberg, Hal Gill etc don't meet the criteria and hence won't be eligible.
