[Mr. Canucklehead]

Based on their performance in a Canuck uniform, and leaving off current players likely to be here in the future such as Hughes or Pettersson...

D. Sedin - H. Sedin - Bure
Mogilny - Gradin - Naslund
Kesler - Linden - Bertuzzi
Smyl - Ronning - Burrows

Salo - Ohlund
Edler - Lumme
Snepsts - Reinhart

Luongo
McLean

 

[Dissonance Jr]

Updating just a bit from when we did this in 2014. I'm only considering players at their peak as Canucks (so no Neely, no Larionov, definitely no Messier).

Sedin-Sedin-Bure
Naslund-Gradin-Linden
Bertuzzi-Kesler-Smyl
Tanti-Sundstrom-Burrows
(extras: Mogilny/Ronning)

Edler-Lidster
Ohlund-Lumme
Hamhuis-Snepsts
(extra: Salo)

Luongo
McLean

-------

— Some of those players further down the list are pretty interchangeable — I don't have strong views on Tanti vs. Mogilny vs. Ronning.

— Tanev vs Hamhuis is an interesting one. Hamhuis peaked a lot higher, but Tanev has now played 130 more games in Vancouver. If we end up re-signing him, he could very well end up on this list some day.

— Pettersson's not ready to crack the roster. He's had two very good seasons but that doesn't beat out Mogilny (one season here that was better than anything Petterson's done, one that was roughly equivalent, plus solid play for another injury-riddled few years) or Tanti (five very good seasons) or Ronning (four very good seasons plus a bunch of good playoff runs).

If youre including Messier then why not Reinhart and Sundin? Where you drawing the line?

Sundin>>>>>>>>>>Smyl

 

[beachcomber]

Thomas Gradin was such a great player. He would have been fantastic in this day and age.

 

[RandV]

Don't have good judgement on the first two decades but I'll go with this:

Sedin-Sedin-Bertuzzi
Naslund-Ronning-Mogilny
Burrows-Gradin-Bure
Smyl-Linden-Kesler

Ohlund-Aucoin
Edler-Salo
Hamhuis-Lumme

Luongo

OP putting in Messier made me cringe.

Where is naslund and Morrison?

 

[Mr. Canucklehead]

Where is naslund and Morrison?

Naslund is on the second line right wing.

I considered long and hard between Morrison and Ronning, but in the end, went with Ronning. IMO he edges Morrison out slightly as a playoff performer and more offensively talented.

 

[Captain Bowie]

Messier bumping down our top all-time scorers???? Also Smyl was not a center.

Sedin - Sedin - Linden
Naslund - Morrison - Bertuzzi
Burrows - Kesler - Bure
Adams - Ronning - Smyl

Ohlund - Salo
Mitchell - Tanev
Edler - Lumme

Luongo

Wanted to find spots for Jovo, Hamhuis, Gradin, Mogilny, but oh well.

No Bure?

Williams or Adams over Gradin or Mogilny is...curious.

Bure was an oversight. Gradin or Mogilny don't really fill a 4th line role like the others.

No idea about LW/RW

I have left off Messier, Larionov, Sundstrom, Neely and a few others. They were obviously great players, but I was going for players who played the most significant part of their careers with the Canucks. I never thought that much of Linden for some reason. And, the Canucks have a plethora of Centres, an adequacy of right wings, and a dearth of left wingers. I include Petri Skriko, who I loved watching. Adams never got the recognition I thought he deserved. His game winning goal against the Laffs in the 2013 run put him on the list.

The first two lines would be things legends are made of. The next two...meh. I wonder what Gradin would have accomplished in a real uniform and with stronger linemates.

McLean earns a place in front of Luongo for the Calgary save.

@Art of Sedinery -Adams scored that goal against the Leafs in 1994 not 2013. In 2013, the Leafs were collapsing against the Bruins while Greg Adams was likely taking an old man nap after having played a round of golf.
