All- time best goalie from the 31 teams?
Martin Gagne Patrick Roy
Ken Dryden for the habs....6 cups in 8 years....hands down
I second everyone here. Lol.
Picking from Roy, Brodeur, Hasek, and Dryden is tough. Sawchuk is up there as well as Plante too.
Dryden just had an incredible run but Roy would be my #1a and Hasek #1b
Hasek, Roy, Brodeur
@@fasteddie777666 Almost as many shut-outs, as losses. For a stand up goalie. Mind blowing...
7:39 I got 2 words for ya. Olli Jokinen. The chief really was a star while playing in Florida with absolutely no supporting players to back him up.
Nyt ne suomilinssit roskikseen. Pelas loppujen lopuks vähän aikaa ja Huberdeau menny ohi vaikka on pirun nuori.
@@Ylinatsiperkele Huben pisteet tullut loistavien syvyyspelaajien ja muiden kantavien pelaajien aikana ja avustuksella, Barkov, Jagr, Hoffmann, Dadonov näin parina esimerkkinä. Olli Jokisen aikaan joukkueesta löytyi Horton, Peltonen, Weiss, Gelinas ja Gratton jotka hyviä 2-3 kentän rooleissa ei ketkään lähelläkään sitä tasoa mitä Hubella ollut koko uran ajan.
I'd go with Luongo, Bure, Barkov and Huberdeau before Jokinen

Detroit could literally have a top 31 list of its own
nah that would be montreal
I think Montreal and Detroit are pretty much the only teams that could make an extremely stacked top 20-30
Howe, Yzerman, Lidstrom, Sawchuk, Kelly, Fedorov, Lindsay, Delvecchio, Abel, Pronovost, Ullman, Black Jack Stewart, Larionov, Datsyuk, Zetterberg, Goodfellow...probably the best players primarily known for being Red Wings. Then you have guys who were likely at their best elsewhere, but at least made some impact for the Wings: Dionne, Hasek, Coffey, Hall, Chelios. Then you have "Hall of Very Good" players like Osgood, Konstantinov, Gallant, Ogrodnick, Vernon. Yeah, it's a pretty nice all-time roster. I think only Montreal and Boston could compete with it (maybe Edmonton as well. It doesn't have the same depth, but prime Gretzky, Messier, and Coffey gives you a chance against anyone).
@@Rodanguirus Jari Kurri as well

Honorable mention for Sabres. Gilbert Perreault G 512 A 814 Points 1326 in 1191 games Sabres 1st draft pick Won Calder 1971. Won the Lady Byng Memorial Trophy in 1973 Multiple All Star
Pat LaFontaine would have been my secondary pick
I agree with Gilbert Perreault as the best buffalo sabres
The guy is underrated in the history of the league, aside from Bobby Orr he's maybe the most fluid and beautiful skater you ever seen in today's game he would thrive on it
@@jamieshouldbeavailable lol it's not even close. Perreault was one of the most underrated players of all time. Bobby Orr was once asked who the best player he ever played against was and he said Perreault.
@@AshtrayAnnie what's not close? So whose second then if not pat LaFontaine? Or is your reading comprehension off and you're just starting an argument with someone who's agreeing with you? Go beat your wife or something bud.

i agree
But beliveau won more stanley cups..
@@ihatenubs6833 Henri Richard: Am I a joke to you ?
Yep. It was Rocket that called the tune in the Forum. It is called the Richard trophy. And 50 goals in 50 games.
lafleur imo
Henrik also has 2 King Clancy trophies, Daniel has one too.
Both Sedin brothers stink. They had no skill and depended on luck their entire career. Boeser is better than both of them combined.

With all due respect to Mr. Yzerman and Mr. Sawchuk who are absolute legends of the game, I still think Gordie was an easy choice for the Red Wings, which should say something about him for sure.
Honesty Professor Caesar Reality I think lidstrom also should be in the conversation. And to me he would be my pick

@@jbell9490
I think Nick and Gordie stand out among the rest. Of these two, I pick Gordie too, but it is close. 7 Norris trophies, when you consider all the great defensemen careers that overlapped Nick's. That is just insane.

The Richard Bros: Are we a joke to you?
Guy Lafleur: Hold my smoke...
Larry Robinson has also entered the chat
The den that is dry
It's a tough call, however this guy is strictly going on stats alone. Some poor choices.
Historically speaking, The Rocket put Mtl on the map. And Henri still had 11 cups... Tough choices
Outstanding Bossy stat: 9 consecutive seasons with 50+ goals!
Years ago, on HNIC, Bossy hit the crossbar from the top of the circle 3 times in a row on request from interviewer.

Bobby Hull for the Black Hawks. Maurice Richard for the Canadien. Denis Potvin for the Islanders. There’s more to the greatest than just pure stats.
For the Wild you'd have to go with Koivu given that he has almost 300 more games than the next longest tenured Wild, but honourable mention to Marian Gaborik who was the team's biggest and brightest star for years.
The reason why this vid is your most popular because it gets the attention of die hard fans like always as well as casual NHL fans which equates to a lot of views. You also did a very good job speaking in the video, almost like a completely different energy that I've seen in some of your other videos, all in all, this was a great video and I hope you get some more subs, views etc. Because she hockey community needs some love!
there is no way Daniel Alfredsson is considered an "unpopular" pick. People who live in that city that aren't fans of the team respect that guy. 100%
I have hated the Sens for my whole life as a Sabres fan and I used to DREAD playing Alfredsson. Idk how he wouldn’t be the ONLY answer.
That Florida Panthers pick...beyond ludicrous. Ever heard of Olli Jokinen?
My initial reaction was The Beezer.
Olli was good but Huberdeau is already passed him in only 8 seasons not to mention Barkov is right behind him with only 5 seasons.
@@taxi615 Jokinen only played 7 seasons in FLA, so Olli Jokinen > Huberdeau
C Owens I’m shocked he didn’t pick Luongo. Didn’t the team say they plan on retiring his #1 in Florida?
jean marc Giroux if Huberdeau and especially Barkov were half as good as everyone on this channel thinks they are then they would’ve made the playoffs more than once in the last decade. Jokinen’s best teammate most seasons was either Jozef Stumpel or 21 year old Nathan Horton and he made the playoffs once for the panthers too. Current team just puts up empty numbers against crappy teams and always loses close to top teams in the league because their no. 1 line doesn’t match up talent wise with most no. 1 lines in the league.
I can’t put personal bias away without saying Maurice Richard as the GOAT for Montreal. I’ll have to disagree
Snowmon I think I would look at Henri as well...11 cups and captain too
Snowmon I thought he would say lafleuer sooo...
Catherine Fraser rip henri
Snowmon I agree 1000%
Totally agree. He is teh greatest legend of all the Habs legends.
All I'm saying is you should have given Maurice "Rocket" Richard a mention for The Habs! He sure as heck deserves it :)
Add Guy Lafleur to that list, 5 cups post expansion and 1200+ points with montreal.
@@mqh8879 It should be a 3 way tie. All extremely good and influential.
I would argue that when Pavel Bure played for the Canucks he was the best player they ever had, but he didn't play for them for long enough.
He's still the best player they've ever had, it doesn't have to be a super long time either. It was long enough for him to demonstrate that he was absolutely that guy
I was happy to see that you picked some goalies too!
You got it right with Orr. Gordie Howe was Mr. Hockey. Wayne Gretzky was the Great One. But Orr was the greatest I ever watched and I am old enough to have seen Gordie playing for the Wings. Orr invented the attacking defense man. Love the guy.
I'm from philly and I appreciate this. Thank you. We need more nhl content. The other 3 major sports have alot of content but not enough of my favorite nhl.

Maurice the Rocket Richard is the biggest legend in the Province of Quebec, nevermind the stats, it goes beyond hockey, every French-Canadian knows that, respect to Mr Jean with a well secured second place, what a Man he was
jean isn't even 2nd for me. koivu, price, lafleur, all players i'd put above him
@@least.insane.femboy roy..
but richard is probly one of the first major star in hockey
No question who know hockey the rocket is the goat for the Habs
The Canucks is a hard team, I think if we're talking who the best player to ever play for the team is, in my opinion it has to be Pavel Bure. He was so exciting to watch.
Its to bad we never got to see what Nasaland could have accomplished. He we was never the same after Stevd More completely destroyed him when he had absolutely no way of dedending hinself. At least Mire got what he deserved in ghe end. Bertuzzi's hit was no wore and he was given a chancd to defend himself but ge was to much of a coward.
Did you even consider Peter Forsberg?
Forsberg was arguably more talented than sakic. But if give it to sakic due to durability and consistently
He was the candle burned at both ends in terms of his injuries.
I disagree because sakic had a bigger impact on the avs and Quebec but that is just my opinion
Patrick Roy?
Forsberg and sakic were both super good players
I'd love to see you mention Lidström for the Redwings, since a team is not only built on offensive players. But you're probably right in your choices.
It's a debatable argument between Howe, Lidstrom and Yzerman.
Lidstrom and Stevie Y are both up there for second, but Howe was Howe, no one else on that team was close.
Lidstrom is my favorite athlete of all time, but it's really tough to argue with Howe. 6 MVPs, led the league in scoring on 6 occasions, an ambidextrous shot , a huge physical presence on the ice, and one of the few players that can challenge Lidstrom in longevity (he not only played 25 seasons with the Wings alone, but he was an All-Star for 22 of them, and his latest MVP came 17 years into his career). Also, had the Conn Smythe existed during his Cup wins, he likely wins '54 and '55 (and he was injured in the '50 semifinals, so it's not his fault for failing to shine in that Cup win).
I think that Roberto Luongo was a bigger part in Florida
Synthetic 429 not even close he was the entire city of Vancouver for years
Duck man3D5 OK then why isn’t Vancouver retiring his number how come the only team to retire his number is Florida how come Roberto Luongo is the first player to ever be retired by the panthers organization just saying
Synthetic 429 Because Vancouver made arrangements to retire the Sedins first obviously.
griffx But I thought Luongo was the entire city of Vancouver for years
Yep Luongo way before Huberneau that only have 8 seasons and 3 great seasons so far.... as Luongo was on of the top 3 goalies for 11 years
Teemu didn’t play with Anaheim that whole time. He played two and a half seasons with Colorado and San Jose..
You forgot to mention Mikita is credited with creating the first curved stick
This video was so well done, love the videos recently 👍
This video was awesome!! I agreed with almost every single pick, great takes bro
Why not add the time with the same Franchise? Sakic played for the same Franchise his whole career, just because the Nordiques moved doesn't make it a different Franchise... Same with both Winnipeg teams, Arizona moved from Winnipeg but it's still the same Franchise history... Same with Atlanta moving to Winnipeg... Hartford to Carolina Minnesota to Dallas... It's odd to just erase what they did for the whole franchise just because they moved locations... No offense meant, it's just my opinion
I agree, that would make more sense.
@@Imtotallydiggingthis I just figure that same Franchise means same Franchise, why split it up when it all counts the same
For me, Pavel Bure is the best Canuck ever... only one I disagrees with tbh.
That's a good one too. Many also believe that Marcus Naslund is the greatest Canuck since he's the one who pulled the Canucks out of the 90s slump (after 1994) and brought them to the level they are today.
@@kevintennert5290 Oh, for sure. Naslund is also a definite candidate.
ACTAN0NVERBA nah Olli Juolevi
Sedins far greater legacy with Vancouver than Bure. Best doesn't equal greatest
Best Russian goalscorer ever. Ovechkin can't hold a candle to Bure.
No one made the crowd go like Bure did.
Can you please do this video again and either give us the top 3 players for each team. Loved this video and would like to see the additional players you debated on.
Crazy to think Ray Bourque, Patrick Roy, Steve Yzerman, Al Macinnis, Ron Francis, Nick Lidstrom, Mark Messier, Jagr, Lindros and others all didnt make the list do to having spent some time in other orgs or in the case of Lidstrom and Yzerman who spent entire careers in 1 org had a possibly best player ever ahead of them. Great work keep it up
Lidstrom and Stevie Y were great, but they were never Mister Hockey.
I'd put Yzerman and/or Lidstrom ahead of Howe. Howe's impressive stats come from the sheer number of games he played more than his production relative to his contemporaries.
@@georgesprat9697 I disagree . Gordie could score.assist. defend and fight. Love Stevie Y and Lidstrom.

Mario.....1723 points in 960 games. That is insane
Yeah ... He COULD have been good ... too bad he was such a floating slacker! Can you imagine if M.L. had played with the heart and effort of Gretzky?!?!? He could have been the greatest all-time ... But W.G. takes that prize, due to how he cared about every damn shift he played (with honourable mention to #4!)
@@davideaston6944 Mario was a slacker? That's ignorantly disrespectful. There's a reason why he's considered one of the best and nobody ever said he was a slacker other than you.
@@jonathanmartin8113 Obviously your remark is, on the contrary, pretty darn "ignorant", as: I guarantee that you've not heard the opinions of Mario from "everyone" (*nobody ever said he was a slacker other than you); so that's just a silly remark.
Also, as just explained, he WAS NOT "the best"; Gretzky and Orr outshone 66 - now we can start to argue about who follows them in the Pantheon (and Mario would be in the discussion, no doubt).
Hey, try reading my remarks, and instead of instantly reacting defensively over them, try thinking about them, and consider what I actually said. And I'll add this, comparing your suggestion:
NO ONE EVER said that Mario Lemieux "out-worked" Wayne Gretzky over their careers. EVER. AGAIN: IF Mario had have worked EVERY SHIFT to the effort that 99 did, he well could have been "the best ever"; but effort plays into the equation, no matter what your natural skills are. I hope you can understand that.
@@davideaston6944 wow dude... You do know that before Mario retired the first time (after major back problems and cancer), his ppg was higher than Gretzky, right? He came back a couple of years later to help his newly acquired team to succeed and played great for a guy that took a couple of years off. Then you're gonna say he's a slacker? Then get all defensive when someone calls out your bullshit? Hahaha you're funny guy!
Also, I never said that Mario worked harder on the ice. I was disagreeing with you calling him a slacker.
And I can assure you that there are players that have "out worked" Gretzky during their respective careers. Gordie Howe comes to mind and well, the actual greatest player, Maurice Richard. I highly doubt that Gretzky would have soldiered on like Maurice did during the 40s and 50s.
I'm not discrediting Gretzky whatsoever, I'm just giving credit where it deserves to be given. Without Maurice's hard work, strong values and opinions, determination and perseverance, we wouldn't have had a Lemieux, a Gretzky, a Béliveau, a Crosby, an Orr and even to an extent, a Howe.
Richard is the OG superstar of the NHL and he paved the way for making the safety of the players a priority so that players like Gretzky would be able to perform like he did.
Lol, Gretzky played a game where no one could touch him and he had free reign to do whatever he wanted. Mario couldn’t tie his skates, was getting back adjustments between periods and had people hanging all over him. Not to mention a come back from cancer, look up the night he returned after his treatment that day.
I had an old Modano stars jersey that was way too big for me so I would wear it when I played goal in road hockey, love that jersey
Interesting perspective. I like that you share thoughts as to why you did NOT choose someone. There will always be disagreements within such a list, but for the most part, I appreciate your rationale for each choice, and was occasionally even pleasantly surprised that you chose the player I was thinking of ... for instance, Dave Keon for my team,The Toronto Maple Leafs!
I would have vote for Maurice Richard for Montreal!
I agree. Kind of the face of the classic Canadian era.
Agreed. Jean Beliveau is certainly one of the greatest players of all time, but Maurice Richard is the cornerstone of the Montréal Canadiens franchise, he is more than just a great player, he is a legend. And think that Guy Lafleur is also another great player. Lafleur, Beliveau and Richard are to hockey what Mantle, DiMaggio and Ruth are to baseball.
This may have been my only objection, the hockey sweater all the poor misguided kids wanted a #9 Richard sweater...
I still think beliveau was better Richard was good in his time more of a big name imo but not to take anything away from him he was still great
The rocket scored more goals in a HABS jersey than Beliveau and Lafleur. All three were great and are always ranked as the three greatest by Montreal media. The Rocket has the mystical effect and rises to the top.
Brett Hull didn't "win multiple with Detroit." He won with the stars in 1999 and with the red wings in 2002
And don't forget that win with the Stars comes with an asterisk...
@@ckm6463 Is that asterisk etched into the cup?
@@rickcolumbo3148 no, just etched in the minds of all who know the rules in the NHL at the time. Hull was in the crease and everyone knows it
Habs GOAT is Maurice Richard, by a mile. Beliveau was a legend, but Rocket Richard will always be remembered as the greatest ever, for reasons that also goes beyond hockey.
So if Wayne had forgo the trade to L.A and quit hockey right there that day, he would still sit in 8th in all time scoring
He was sold to LA not traded
@@johnnypopovich905 uhhhhhhh what?? He was traded.
@@jeneraljax29 technically...but what did Edmonton get for him?

He was a below average player. Patrick Kane is far better.
Hattrick Kane 88 bRuH
@@USMNTsoccerELITE no means no
Hattrick Kane 88 - Lmao! Not even close
Cannot believe you did not choose Bobby Hull
Maybe do like a history series we’re you talk about games or go through history
Penguins "some people may say this should be Crosby" !??!?? If you picked Jagr, then some people may have had a point with Crosby, but both are not even close to Lemieux.
i agree that crosby isn't close but saying jagr isn't close is a stretch. but since its best player for each franchise it would go to lemieux, jagr was a goat though.
@@marlinbradley3815 Glad to see Jagr is remembered at his fair value. Late 90s early 2000 he was dominant when scoring was at an alltime low. Finished 2nd alltime in points yet plyed 4 years in Russia when still young...It's just that Mario is somewhere else imo. We all know what Mario did, but look at his points per game the year he came back (2000-2001). Hes alone up there. Compare his ppg 95-96 with Jagr that same year (Jagr had 149 points!!). And I just remember him being so dominant.
These are very good picks but there are a couple I disagree with but I will say that the players you chose would be in 2nd place on my list. I would have Maurice "Rocket" Richard for Montreal over Jean Beliveau and Bobby Hull over Stan Mikita for Chicago. I consider Hull to be one of the top 5 NHL players overall yet he never seems to enter the "super elite status" conversation in the same way that Gretzky, Orr, and Howe always do. He dominated the NHL during the 1960s, winning the Art Ross Trophy three times and the Hart Trophy twice and was the first player to score more than 50 goals, doing it three times, plus he also had a season with 77 goals in the WHA. Stan Mikita did not become a star player until he turned his game around from being a dirty player and a pest into a clean, respected Lady Byng player. Hull was great for most of his career. Also, as a Leafs fan, I am happy that you picked Dave Keon as #1. Did you know that in 2017, to honor the Leafs' 100th anniversary, Keon was chosen as the #1 player in the Top 100 Leafs players of all time? So that was a good pick.
My back up for the Leafs would've been Darly Sittler. HE SCORED 10 POINTS IN ONE NIGHT. He Didn't win Any Stanley Cup, Only BECAUSE OF HAROLD BALLAR.
Even as a Leafs fan I idolized Mike Bossy when I was young. One of the greats.
Good vid.pretty close.honorable mention to Gilbert perreault sabres og
you should try a hometown hero edition, with the best players having played for their hometown's team
For Carolina I'd have picked Ron Francis. He was the big name player for the Hurricanes and an awesome role model for the younger players. He also was captain of the Whalers before they moved to Carolina
Completely agree. 714 games as a whaler, 264 goals, 557 assists, 821 points...
Nothing but respect for Shane Doan. And many others on this list. Despite a couple of runs later in his career It takes a special kind of person to want to stick around a team like Arizona.
I have Bure as Vancouver's GOAT
Great job on the list! I agreed with all but one of the picks. My only change would be to Florida and make it Luongo. Huberdeau still a great pick I just couldn't put him ahead of Luongo
Good job, enjoyed your vid
When I was 8 I was getting bullied in cause of my size and St. Louis tweeted about me. It was a very cool experience aha
My distant cousin
The "no longer current franchises" you mentioned as examples are ALL still current franchises, they just moved.
Quebec Nordiques -> Colorado Avalanche
Hartford Whalers -> Carolina Hurricanes
Winnipeg Jets (original) -> Arizona Coyotes
Atlanta Thrashers -> Winnipeg Jets (current incarnation)
Colorado Rockies
-> New Jersey Devils
Atlanta Flames -> Calgary Flames
Minnesota North Stars -> Dallas Stars
I think that covers all the current teams' moves and re-brands.
EDIT: With all that being said, I'd say the picks were all solid picks.
For the Canucks I'd personally pick Pavel Bure. The Sedins are amazing, but for pure talent and production when he was with the Canucks, The Russian Rocket was a legit game breaker who did unbelievable things with the puck, and was was the best puck handler for the speeds he'd be typically going at. Back to Back 60 goal seasons to follow up a Rookie of the Year award. He only fell off the 60 goal mark the next season because it was strike shorted and he only had half games to work with and after that suffered a career altering knee injury to a Brian Marchment knee lock (ala Ulf Samuelsson on Cam Neely).
If you were to take into account the time when the Avalanche were still in Quebec, then I'd also consider Peter Statsney a strong candidate for their franchise GOAT, though Joe Sakic started his career there when they were at their worst and the next best player 1 year was Michelle Goulet with less then 40 points to Joe's over 100.
I'd have personally held the 2 iterations of the Winnipeg Jets as separate franchises though as they actually are. Howerchuck was part of the Jets/Coyotes franchise and had nothing to do with the franchise you attributed him to, though he is a great pick for a GOAT or honorable mention for that franchise, though I'd probably go with Doan overall too. The 2nd coming of the Jets (Thrashers/Jets franchise), though they may hold the same name, is a completely different organization. IMO Howerchuk was a very bad pick since he never played for that organization. How can he be a GOAT for a team he played 0 seconds for? That pick should have been from someone who actually played for them.
I remember when Florida played Montreal in my small town in New Brunswick for kraft hockey ville
I respect your opinions! Pretty good list indeed
Love the Dave Keon pick. Best Leaf Ever!
Good video. I would choose Pavel Bure as the greatest Florida Panther of all time. Check out his stats and awesome production. Electric to watch, too.
I would have chosen Pavel Bure for greatest Canuck. 2 60 goal seasons and 1 59 goal season
The Rocket > Any Hab ever. Beliveau was phenomenal, but come on, The Rocket scored over 500 career goals in an era where scoring 300 was almost impossible. The man was the heart and soul of the Habs from day 1 of his career till his last. I mean, its more than a coincidence that the Habs went from winning 5 straight cups in the 50s to missing the playoffs as a whole the next year he decided to hang up the skates. I don't think the Habs will ever have anyone come anywhere close to The Rocket ever again, and they had many great players after him too
Great work!
Stan Makita what a player in that era.
I feel like you started watching hockey in 2005
Now now …😂
i absolutely agree? so many i can debate?
Loved playing the guessing game to be honest. Great video!
Btw.
*about
Correction Brett Hull had a couple Stanley Cups with DALLAS and Detroit. He scored the freaking game winner, how could you forget?
Disagree with that. Pavel Bure was the best to ever play for the Canucks.
My first thought for the Canucks was also Bure, despite Sedin having significantly more points for the franchise. Since Sedin played 17 seasons with the 'nucks, and Bure only 7, they averaged 63 and 68 points per season respectively, giving the nod to Bure.
luongo is the best
@@cheifwaffle Luongo did more for the Panthers, and if you can only use a player once, he belongs there.
@@The_R_Vid yeah, if you're looking at overall contribution to the team I think you have to go with Daniel (Goals > points), but Pavel was very special and the Canucks should never have let them go. No idea why they thought they needed a rebuild in 1994, Pavel was young, Linden was young, Lumme was 27. Even McLean was only 28. Adams was 30 Courtnall was 31. They had a 19 year old Peca, 23 year old Hedican, and picked up Aucoin the next year. Then they had the strike year the year after that. :(
Trevor Linden.
How can u not put Montreal inthe thumbnail so many legends man😂
Totally agreed with you on all of these. Before I watched I did a quick run through predicting each and as a Sabres fan, I thought you might pick Perreault, but I did pick Hasek. Anyway I believe I ended up only missing two teams answers…the Kings (I picked Luc Robitaille but Dionne is a good answer) and Florida (I picked Olli Jokinen).
That said, people griping about certain guys (guy arguing for Richard is dumb), and if anything you’d only be able to argue for LaFleur besides Beliveau.
Anyway, well done.
Well chosen for most teams! I was just a bit surprised by Béliveau instead of Maurice Richard. But Béliveau would #2 - #3 of the Habs ranking so... if your pick is Richard, Lafleur or Béliveau, you pass the test!
It's definitely Daniel Alfredsson for the Ottawa Senators. If Erik Karlsson didn't get traded to the Sharks, he'd probably pass Alfie and would be the greatest player in franchise history.
For Carolina I would’ve said rob brind’amour
Edit: and for Edmonton it should have been nail yakupov he is so good he went first overall and doesn’t even play in the nhl lol
Edit 2: and for Montreal I would have picked Maurice “ the rocket” Richard
Edit 3: I would have picked Mats sundin for Toronto
Too good for nhl
What about francis for the canes?
Rod*
Henry . . Francis played for the Hartford Whalers
and pavel bure for vancouver
I think Hank is the GOAT for the Rangers. He just played for them at the wrong time. He dragged them to and through playoff after playoff and nearly landed them a cup.
When the Rangers turn came I was thinking to myself "It probably should be Brian Leetch but there is no way you're going to pick him"...but then you totally came through! You ought to do a GOAT-Defenseman version.
King Henrik would be second behind Leetch
Great video, but why not include both cities for the relocated teams? Team history in terms of stats and so forth always do. Also, the old Winnipeg Jets are the Coyotes, current Jets: Thrashers. Etc etc.
Great content though, keep up the good work buddy 👍
There a lot of team not existing anymore...you want them all. Whalers Jets Nordique Minesota nortstars Atlanta Trashers AND Flames Montreal Maroons and wanderwers Quebec Bulldogs kansas city scout Brooklin Americans Colorado Rockies Pirates Pittsburg (yes an hockey team was named like that befor baseball team) don't remember but all but and other them at Philadelphie and St-Louis one in california Clevland and San Francisco
@@manyskbigbear Philadelphia was the Quakers back in the 30s. California were the Golden Seals but folded because they were so bad. Kansas City had the Scouts then folded after 2 seasons I believe. Cleveland was the Barons. Believe they only had one season. Might be wrong though. St.Louis had the Eagles in the 30s as well.
Buffalo is in fact still Gilbert Perreault. After all these years. Hasek is close but his career is split up.
I'd put Phil Housley in the talk too.
Perreault was a wonderful player.
I agree with you. Hasek is the GOAT of goalies and to an outsider it would appear to be the greatest Sabre. To fans who grew up with the Sabres we know how much the original Sabre meant to the franchise.
Hasek anyday. Maybe the best goalie of all time, while Perreault was merely a medium excellent scorer.
Did you forget Selanne had a brief stint with the Sharks and then Avs? He Was away from Anaheim from 2000 till 2005
You should also make a goalie specific version of this video
Daniel Alfredsson is the greatest, why would that be an unpopular pick????
I think he left on bad terms bc of contract reasons which became a theme for sens with Karlsson and stone but really wasn’t his fault entirely
@@GoalLineHockey
Alfie left because be wanted a last shot at winning the Stanley Cup, right?
Imtotallydiggingthis yes I’m pretty sure that’s why. He was at the end of his career, so I have a difficult time seeing how the contract had much to do with it.
Imtotallydiggingthis he left because Eugene Melnyk the owner ripped him off financially .. clearly took advantage of his good nature where he gave the sens an incredible team discount . Insulted him by trying to do the same again . So Alfredsson left .. can’t blame him .. now we see Melnyk and how hated he his for his own selfish exploits , quite clear Akfredsson was fed up with him , just too nice to outright say it . Billionaires are generally pieces of shit . The sens owner embodies that
Andrew Thompson 3 words “ALL-STAR DANNY HEATLY”
Pavel Bure on Canucks, Sundin on Toronto, Roy on the Avs.
Not a mention of Gilmore nor Daryl Sitler
I'd say Forsberg over sakic if not for all his injuries
Solid list bruv
I agreed with you on all but 3 teams. Montreal Canadiens Maurice Richard. Calgary Flames Lanny McDonald, New York Rangers Mark Messier
Debate time.
I say Lemieux is better then Gretzky because Lemieux had to quit and come back, had cancer and still played out of his mind, and he was on a bad team and still managed to get 100 point seasons. Also he was targeted and whacked and hacked at while Gretzky was protected.
No one cares who was better because both stink. Kane is the GOAT, ahead of both of them combined.
I don't know man. Joe Sakic over Forsberg? I call nonsense.
I am watching this from the future and why does ohnyquist sound so much more enthusiastic compared to now
“Some people may say this should be Sidney Cosby”. Some people are on drugs….
Sad that there are teams without any Hall-of-Famers.
Where is Peter Forsberg bro?
I was kind of wondering who you would pick for Vancouver, although I knew it would be one of the Sedin twins. I probably would have picked Henrik as well.
My Opinion
ANA: Teemu Selane
ARI: Shane Doan
BOS: Bobby Orr
BUF: Dave Anderchuck
CGY: Lanny McDonald
CAR: Eric Stall
CHI: Bobby Hull
COL: Joe Sakic
CBJ: Rick Nash
DAL: Sergi Zubov
DET: Gordie Howe
EDM: Wayne Gretzky
FLA: Pavel Bure
LA: Marcel Dionne
MIN: Marin Gabric
MTL: Maruce Richard
NSH: Ryan Johanson
NJ: Scott Stevens
NYI: Mike Bossy
NYR: Mark Messier
OTT: Daniel Alferdsson
PHI: Bobby Clark
PIT: Mario Lemiux
SJ: Patrick Marlue
STL: Brett Hull
TB: Martin St. Louis
TOR: Tim Horton
VAN: Henrik Sedin
VGK: Mark Stone
WSH: Alex Ovechkin
WPG: Blake Wheeler
Stop skipping Eric Lindros of PHI
Love Teemu. Orr is incomparable- amongst the Top 3 in the NHL.Haask incredibly awesome. Makita great and a legend. Howe definitely in Top 3 in NHL. Gretzky May be the Best Ever.
Solid picks really, although I would have gone with Luongo for the Panthers and Pavel Bure for the Vancouver Canucks. Great list.
Hi Nyquist can you do the GOAT for all the defunct teams too? Like the NY Americans Cleveland Barons and St. Pats?
Daniel and Henrik Sedin go together. It’s not cheating, it’s part of the legacy of the Sedins; excellent individual players, but also the ultimate team players who don’t have a selfish bone in their body. That is why they are loved in Vancouver - great players, but also great human beings.
