  1. Fedorov, Yzerman, Shanahan, Datsyuk, Zetterberg, and then one of Hull, Larionov, Larkin, or all manner of other players depending on your specific selection criteria. Personally in the 6 spot I’d pick Patrick Kane because I think it’d annoy damn near everyone.

    On D, Lidstrom, Kronwall, Chelios, and I’ll go uhhh… Rafalski.

    And in net, Hasek and Ozzy. Honourable mention to Jimmy Howard.

  2. Personally I’d like to see the All-whipping boy team since 2000.

    Forwards: Justin Abdelkader, Dan Cleary, Andrew Copp, Frans Nielsen, Luke Glendening, and Filip Zadina.

    Defence: Andreas Lilja, Jonathan Ericsson and Jeff Petry.

    Goal: Ville Husso and Thomas Greiss

  3. Fedorov, Yzerman, Shannahan, Datsuyk, McCarty, Zetterberg

    Chelios, Lidström, Kronwall, Seider (Would be cool to see Vladdy named though)

    Osgood and Hašek

  4. Just a reminder that this is for the 1.1.2000 – 2025 time period. Some people mentioned for example Darren McCarty, but he had his best years in the 90’s and wasn’t that great anymore in the 2000s.

    It will be interesting to see if they will place more emphasis on the total impact over several years, or a few peak seasons. Fedorov for example played only three seasons for the wings during this time period.

  5. Fedorov, Yzerman, Shannahan—

    Larkin, Zetterberg, Datsyuk

    Lidstrom, Chelios —

    Kronwall, Seider

    Hasek & Howard

  6. As I ponder who to pick, I realize that I wouldn’t pick anyone from the current roster.

    Stevie Y goes first. Then Niklas Lidstrom.

    Then Sergey Fedorov, Shanny, Hank Zetterberg, Pavel Datsuyk , Dominik Hasel, Brett Hull, Chris Osgood, Chris Chelios, Brian Rafalski, Niklas Kronwall, Thomas Holmstrom, Kris Draper, Darren MaCarty, Kirk Maltby, and finally Johan Franzen.
