Speculation: Post Full-Season Lockout All Star Team

[Eye of Ra]

Curious to see how everyone would construct an All Star lineup from the 2005-06 season to the current one. The idea being to build a lineup assuming everyone is at their peak season during that timeframe. So longevity isn't important, but they can only play at the level they played at for your team.

My team:

Ovechkin - Backstrom - Semin
Johansson - Riberio - Kuznetsov
Chimera - Laich - Ward
Zubrus - Halpern - Brouwer

Green - Carlson
Poti - Niskanen
Orlov - Alzner

Holtby
Halak

Chimera - Fedorov- Brouwer
Knuble - Gordon - Clark

Orpik- Carlson

Honestly, that defence is a disgrace.

Is it July already?

 

[895]

To be fair we have 4 days of no hockey and nothing better to talk about except various ways to get Laich off the team.

This thread needs more Nylander, Sarge, and Tyler Sloan

Surprised to see Laich at C on some of these lineups. His best years were at LW, no?

How about an all dud roster?

Care to lead it off?

I don't want to be responsible for the arguments that will ensue lol

The Washington Capitals are proud to select in the first round of the 2016 All-Dud Cap Draft...

Martin Erat

All duds:

Erat-Nylander-Wolski
Sturm-Belanger-Pettinger
Volpatti-Aucoin-DJ King
Clymer-Sutherby-Beech
Scott Walker-Joey Crabb-Dustin Penner
GlenX

Hillen-Corvo
Sloan-Schultz
Jurcina-Muir
Pothier (Injury)-Eminger? (Although he got us Carlson)
Urbom

Theodore
Peters

Goalie was the toughest. Tried to spread it out over all of the season since 05-06 which is why I included a few extra lines

 

[g00n]

They had SO many fill-in defensemen during the firesale/rebuild years you really don't need to look past '07-08.

 

[BrooklynCapsFan]

Joe Motzko only played 8 games in a Caps sweater but it felt like 800.

Not bad!

I would disagree with Neuvy tho. He was just young. Maybe... Halak?

 

[895]

Excluding the busts that didn't even get a game like Pokulok and Gustafsson...


Erat- Nylander- Fata
Laich -Klepis- Joe "Must go" Motzko
Glencross- Sutherby - King
Wolski- Belanger- Bourque

Schultz-Eminger
Morrisonn- Clymer
Hamrlik- Corvo

Theodore
Peters


I had a hard time with the forwards since there were so many forwards that were expected to suck and ended up sucking. Defense was too easy, alas. Tempted to put Green on the dud list

 

[hb12xchamps]

Yeah didn't know exactly who to throw in that spot. I though about Halak then looked at his numbers: 12 GP 2.31 GAA .930 SV%.

Edit: Theodore's numbers weren't great. Changing my answer to him

 

[Calicaps]

Oh, yeah. That's pretty good.

You know which goalie sucked after the lockout? Olaf Kolzig.

Was trying not to mention that.

 

[hb12xchamps]

Didn't want to put him for obvious reasons

He was toward the end of his career though so I understand that

Sad but true. And he was bitter when he got replaced.

 

[BrooklynCapsFan]

Sad but true. And he was bitter when he got replaced.

His lateral movement disappeared. Can't really blame him as he was getting older and had a lot of mileage on him. The Huet thing probably could have been handled a lot better.
