Who Wore it Best? #1, #2, #3

[tigervixxxen]

First in a series of polls to determine who wore each sweater number "best" in Avalanche history. In the end I will make a list of each sweater number worn in Avalanche history with the named best player attached. Best is open to interpretation and debate, have at it!

Nominations and poll results for each number can be found in THIS thread. Those numbers with only one nomination have been finalized. Each poll will cover three numbers and will run for 2-3 days. Please make your selection for each number and thanks for participating!

So I accidentally clicked on Klee instead of Lefebrve...

 

[forsbergavs32]

Varly, Lefebvre, and Miller.

Same

 

[UncleRisto]

I think Wes O'Neill wore 62 better than Stastny.

 

[Ceremony]

Varlamov, Holden, Skrastins

 

[raistlin76]

Varly, Lefebvre, Skrastins

 

[Tweaky]

Abby, Lefebvre, Miller.

Cup winners over potential. (opinion subject to change based on troll value)

 

[AslanRH]

Miller vs Scratch was a bit tougher, but

Varly, Lefebvre, Skrastins

won my votes

 

[AVS1819]

Miller vs Scratch was a bit tougher, but

Varly, Lefebvre, Skrastins

won my votes

Same for me.

 

[The Mars Volchenkov]

I voted for Aebischer by mistake. Varly, Lefebvre, and Miller.

 

[captaincheese]

Varly, Lefebvre, and Ironman.

Sad irony that Skratsins was a shot blocking machine that couldn't seem to get injured. Then he dies in a stupid plane crash.

 

[agentblack]

Sylvain! Best no. 2 evar!

 

[IceRat]

Varly, Lefebvre, and Miller.

this is correct

I didn't want to bring this whole thing up but now that you mention it, I had a similar thought today about him breaking the Iron Man record.

 

[RoyIsALegend]

Varly, Sly, and Miller.

 

[Former Ladder]

I don't see Nick Holden for #2....

Got to go with the classics. Aebi won a cup and actually won a Rd in the playoffs. Varly needs to do that with the avs first. Lefevbre is a no brainer. And miller had some great playoffs for us.

Aebischer played 1 minute during that Cup run. I could have done that.

 

[DRL]

He was also the avs MVP in 2004 playoff run.

 

[Tweaky]

That one minute is still more than Varly has had in a successful cup run. But I will conceed that there is compelling argument either way on that one.

The one that confuses me is Skratins/Miller. As an Av, Miller had more games, more points, better +/-, a cup, and was a key piece in the trade that led to the second cup. Scratch was good, and an iron man, and maybe had the better career, but as an Av, Miller hands down.
