My two favorites were Jean Ratelle & Brad Park.
Then Emile Francis ripped out my 11-year old heart on November 7, 1975

I think what you mean here is "famous", not infamous. Or is there some context I'm not aware of...?My 1st favorite and still my favorite is Richard Martin former Sabre and part of the infamous French Connection.
I first watched hockey in the 70/71 playoffs. I was only 5 years old and didnt follow a team but I remember Dryden standing on his head in those playoffs. And I thought his mask was cool. Intimidating. Not the mask in the picture. His first mask. I goalies looked like warriors out there so I favored them. Dryden was my favorite even though I was never a Caps fan. The first skater that I liked was Bobby Clarke.View attachment 136139
Ken Dryden
Dryden was my first favourite player. I was a big Habs fan as a young child in the late '70s. I think Lemaire was my 2nd favourite, but nobody was close to Dryden.
I've always loved Russian players too. Probably Mikhailov was the first who really caught my eye.

Became a hockey fan in 1968...chose the Bruin's as my team as I liked their rough style and they were up and coming...so guess who was my first favorite player? (Hint: see avatar...)
