Cherry Hill Knights of Kní!

Home: Cherry Hill Arena- where "The Ice Is Tilted" is more than just a metaphor.*

[The Knights of Kní get the jump on virtual pre-orders of team-related swag by being the first franchise to assign Jersey Numbers, which match the competitors' IRL playing numbers, except as italicized, and explained below...]

Coach- Glen Sather

#27 Frank Mahovlich- #11 Mark Messier (C)- #12 Jarome Iginla [The Thunder Line]
#9 Paul Kariya- #91 Sergei Fedorov- #10 Pavel Bure [The Lightning Line]
#20 Johnny Bucyk (A)- #21 Brent Sutter- #18 Dave Taylor
#28 Claude Giroux- #17 Frank Fredrickson- #8 Jimmy Ward

#2 Viacheslav Fetisov (A)- #3 Earl Seibert
#4 Bill Gadsby- #88 Brent Burns
#6 František Pospišíl (A)- #72 Teppo Numminen

#29 Ken Dryden
#35 Pekka Rinne

Paul Kariya wore 9 throughout his NHL-career. Bucyk did not. We're assigning Bucyk his break-in-the-league number of 20. Jimmy Ward played in an era before regular numbers, so we've assigned him #8 as an homage to his ML Baseball-playing son Pete Ward, who wore that number. Earl Seibert also played at such a time- but he's our Defenseman selected between Fetisov (2) and Gadsby (4)- so '3' seems like a natural number here. Similarly to the prior two examples, Frank Fredrickson has been assigned number 17 for no other reason than I think it's a cool number. Mahovlich already has #27, so we've inverted to '72' for Teppo Numminen. Besides, Numminen doesn't have to be reminded that '72 was the year of one of Finland's great international sports triumphs, the Olympic double-gold of Lasse Virén in the 5k & 10k races in Munich.

PP-1 Pospišíl, Burns, Mahovlich/Messier, Giroux, Bure
PP-2 Fetisov, Seibert, Kariya/Mahovlich, Fedorov, Iginla

PK-1 Messier, Iginla, Fetisov, Seibert
PK-2 Fedorov, Kariya, Gadsby, Numminen

* Multi-million fantasy-dollar Capital Improvement Project completed. Ice no longer actually tilted. We've also added a Visitors Dressing Room, so that opponents no longer have to gear-up at the Hotel a mile down-the-road.

MONTREAL MAROONS!

Team Overview:

• 4 line, relentless attacking to wear down opposition.

• Strong 2 way hockey up and down lineup

• Elite top end C talent and depth with 6 players capable of playing C

• Puck possession is name of game, especially out of dot with Clarke/Kennedy

• Puck transition from D to O with Leetch, Chelios, Blake, Carlson, and Boyle is strength

• Physical top 4 on blue line

• Superior clutch play featuring, Plante, Crosby, Kennedy, Leetch, Kurri especially

Coach:

Joel Quenneville


Forwards:

Brad Marchand - Sidney Crosby (C) - Jari Kurri

Marchand is a 200 foot demon. Yes he sometimes borders on the edge (and crosses) of legal but he's one of the all time great agitators and has developed into a strong offensive player. He and Crosby have had a ton of success together on the international stage, though the sample size is small. Crosby is Crosby. Kurri should love playing with Sid (and vice versa) as the latter is a poor man's Gretzky (offensively) in most areas, namely vision and passing. This is a line I have no problems putting up against any other top 6 unit. They can all play 200 feet at an above average level.

Cy Denneny - Bobby Clarke (A) - Vladimir Martinec

Power on power more often than not here. Denneny played and excelled in a defensive/counter scheme in Ottawa under Pete Green, putting up great offensive totals. He was noted as a policeman for players like Nighbor and that rep, along with his finishing ability, will play wonderfully next to Clarke. Speaking of Clarke, he is one of the best defensive C's of all time on top of providing elite face off ability (possession) and great offense in a 2nd line capacity. His vision/passing ability should play well with the wings here as will his feistiness in the corners and high traffic areas. Martinec provides excellent all around offensive ability. He was regarded well as a defensive hockey player, especially on the PK. For teams with really strong top lines, you will likely see Kurri dropped down here to enhance the line's 2 way acumen even more.

Joe Malone - Ted Kennedy (A) - Alexander Maltsev

Relentless pressure continues offensively. Malone may get dinged a little for being at LW but it should be minimal as this is a 3rd line role and his line mates are stellar, good fits. His goal scoring is way above average for this role regardless. Kennedy brings incredible fore checking and face off ability to the mix. He can dig pucks and create space for the wingers while still being strong offensively for a 3rd line role. Maltsev will handle the puck quite a bit and engineer the line from RW. His speed, skill and creativity will keep opposing teams on their heels.

Craig Ramsay - Mike Modano - Theo Fleury

This line can play either direction. Ramsay is one of the best defensive LW'ers of all time with solid ES scoring numbers for the role he played in real life. Modano's Selke record is quite good (including a finalist nod) as was his ability in the dot. Couple that with his offensive acumen and he makes for a very strong depth C. Fleury is just a little energizer bunny who will hit anything all over the ice, plays a strong 200 foot game, and like Modano brings way above the bar offense for a bottom 6/depth role.


Defensemen:

Brian Leetch - Chris Chelios

All American top pairing! Managed to get a bit of real life chemistry again here. Leetch and Chelios were partners for the US national team on multiple occasions including the rare US gold medal in the 1996 World Cup of Hockey. Chelios and Leetch combine to check off basically all the boxes you want. Puck transition is fantastic, especially on the left. Chelios brings a ton of physicality, even agitating behavior. He's a rich man's Duncan Keith. I think Q would LOVE deploying CC as his #1. Unlike a Paul Coffey, Leetch isn't a major liability in his own end. He's passable in that regard and with Chelios to his right can do what he did best and that is transition the puck via pass/skating. Both are high end #1 players on the PP and PK respectively. They also have 361 playoffs games between them. 4 Cups, a Conn Smythe.

Jack Stewart - Rob Blake

Pretty similar to the top pairing but this one is especially rugged. Stewart was the greatest Red Wing defensemen until Red Kelly showed up in the early 50's. EXTREMELY physical/strong player who would hit like a freight train but was clean about it. Didn't often get out of position to do it either. Blake provides strong puck transition and shot capabilities fro the point. Solid defensively with the ability to end the night of anyone who doesn't keep their head up in neutral/offensive ice. Another pair with a plethora of big game experience. Over 200 playoff games played and 3 Cups.

John Carlson - Dan Boyle

Puck transition and depth on special teams. Both peaked as multi time AS players. Both were high minute players on Cup winners. In a 12 team league you can probably do a bit better but there will be worse bottom pairings.


Goalies:

Jacques Plante

Billy Smith

Elite, clutch #1 and a very strong backup who knows a thing or two about winning Cups. Had the Smyth existed in Plante's time you'd have 2 winners here.


Special Teams:

PP 1:

Denneny - Crosby - Kurri
Blake (trigger) - Leetch (QB)

PP2:

Maltsev - Malone/Modano/Clarke (will rotate) - Martinec
