Keeping the ball rolling with a pick that may not have been on anyone else's shortlist.

Letterkenny selects C Yanic Perreault (1995-2008)

The NHL has only really kept faceoff stats since around 2000.

Perreault is the recorded king, having won over 60% of his faceoffs during his career, which included well over 10,000 of them.

So I wasn’t going to pick this player , because he is cool and does not deserve suffering , but due to popular demand:


Flyers pick
Shjon Podein
Date of crime: Nov 12, 1998


In true Flyers fashion, he of course won a cup after leaving the Flyers , so good for him.


“While helping Colorado capture the Stanley Cup in the 2000–01 season, Shjon also scored a career-high 15 goals and equaled his best points total at 32. Shjon is often remembered for wearing his uniform a full 25 hours after winning game 7 of the Stanley Cup final”

Time for another Hall of Famer, my last pre expansion pick. Norm Ullman, 1960-1968

He was a very good player who was never really the best, but played a lot of games. A compiler, but a pretty good one who had the luxury of being teammates with some great players. He was a center, but I'll shift him to wing to play beside Backstrom.

quote:

Era: Of the 15 skaters to play in at least 1066 games (13 modern seasons) between 1955 and 1975, Ullman is
4th in Goals
5th in GPG
2nd in Assists
6th in APG
2nd in Points
T-5th in PPG
8th in Plus Minus
4th in Offensive Point Shares
7th (4th or 4th Forward) in Defensive Point Shares
4th in Point Shares
1st in Games

He did finish second in Hart voting in 1965, losing handedly to Bobby Hull.

The Montreal Maroons take John Ferguson, Sr. as Head Coach because:

Wikipedia posted:

The slash was apparently done at the instigation of assistant coach John Ferguson. "I remember that Kharlamov's ankle was hurting pretty bad. I called Clarke over to the bench, looked over at Kharlamov and said, 'I think he needs a tap on the ankle.' I didn't think twice about it. It was Us versus Them. And Kharlamov was killing us. I mean, somebody had to do it." Canadian journalist Dick Beddoes asked Clarke about it later at a team reunion, calling it a "wicked two-hander", to which Clarke replied "Dick, if I hadn't learned how to lay on a two-hander once in a while, I'd never have left Flin Flon."

The Vancouver Canucks select....


Aubrey Victor “Dit” Clapper
31-41


Look at that handsome man! First NHL player to reach 20 seasons and one of two to be an all star at forward and defense. I’ll play him on my blueline

quote:

Normally a bit of a pacifist in terms of fisticuffs, Clapper lost his temper once when Dave Trottier of the Montreal Maroons butt ended Clapper's face with his stick. Referee Clarence Campbell never called a penalty, so Clapper too the law into his own hands and jumped Trottier. Disgusted at Clapper's actions, Campbell began to verbally assault Clapper as he escorted him to the penalty box, calling him a "dirty son of a bitch." After asking the ref what he had said, Clapper had enough punch Campbell right off of his feet. That sort of treatment of an official should have landed Clapper in a lot of hot water, but he only got a $100 fine. Campbell took much of the blame, claiming "I was talking loud when I should have been throwing them into the penalty box."

I’ll get my North Stars picks in shortly

I think your top line would be really great together. Sid would mesh well with Hull and Naslund both really well.

I might switch Taveres and Staal. I think Tavares is a better playmaker, and Staal would be good as a two-way guy on that third line.
