To me the first 2 are a lock Selanne then Kurri, after that it gets interesting.

I'm very interested to see where Kipper goes. Arguably a top 5 for the better part of the 2000's, but seems to be forgotten.

 

[Regal]

Needs more Ruotsalainen

 

[Brucelenok]

I'm very interested to see where Kipper goes. Arguably a top 5 for the better part of the 2000's, but seems to be forgotten.

He should be exactly around 5th spot IMO.

Selanne
Kurri
Lehtinen
Rask

Kurri. Easily one of the greatest two way wingers and playoff performers in NHL history.

Jets fans be like: Where the f*** is Laine

 

[JoVel]

Selänne. Kurri, while being insanely good, is a step behind.

hes an interesting case... career wasnt as long as others, but was a top goalie every year as a starter except for the last. I would say hes above Rask and Rinne.

It''s okay we got Selanne

 

[Regal]

Rask over Rinne....interesting. Not saying wrong, just, interesting.

Is it though? Rinne has the better overall Vezina voting record, but Rask actually has a Vezina, and doesn't have the lows Rinne has had. Also has a better playoff record.
