**** it, Kariya.

 

[Jonesey]

Still voting Sully.

No clue on who else to nominate.

 

[triggrman]

Add Fitzgerald or Berehowski

 

[Legionnaire11]

Add Arnott and dare I say Tootoo? He obviously isn't a scoring leader, but he spent a good amount of time here and was somewhat of a face of the franchise for a while, definitely with the casuals. His first game ever, with the Nunavut crowd on hand was something special as well.

I'm not sure who else, Fitzy as Trigg mentioned. Maybe iron Man Skrastins, or first all-star Krivokrasov . Hartnell could probably be in contention further down the list as well.

Staying with Sully (thought could easily go Josi. Wont put Kariya ahead of Sully)and a polite no to Tootoo. He was a nice sideshow but if he had been a generic western canadian nobody would remember him today.

To play devil's advocate, it works both ways. Sure, he may be forgotten in other cases but it's us, and he's not. If you're a fan of most teams around the league you'd laugh at Timonen being the 5th best player your team has ever had, but we've had special circumstances and special players who stand out more than they would elsewhere. I think Tootoo's Inuit background had very little to do with his popularity here. He was just the first of his kind on the ice for us at the time.

Not saying he should necessarily be in the top 20, just offering a counter point

 

[King Weber]

Going with Erat here

2nd in All-Time points
3rd in All-Time goals
2nd in All-Time assists
3rd in All-time games played

 

[Softball99]

Going with Erat here

2nd in All-Time points
3rd in All-Time goals
2nd in All-Time assists
3rd in All-time games played

My vote too all the above and the GOAT trade request
