fryer98 30 Posted May 10, 2007 Share Posted May 10, 2007 It was hard for me to make a Topic Title for this, so I'll explain it better here. A buddy and I got into a discussion about "if the Penguins still had all the players in the league that played for them at one time..." As in, make a team of all the players, still in the league, that played for your favorite team, who would be on it? I know, it's dumb, but we were bored at the bar. We only did 9 Fs, 4 D, and 2 Gs...based on 06-07 level of play. Feel free to adds your or comment on mine (I'm sure we missed someone or screwed up another). This is what we came up with for the Penguins, players in bold not on 06-07 roster...ForwardsCrosbyMalkinRecchiRobertsStaalJagrM.

Vertigo 0 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 Brendan Shanahan - Steve Yzerman1 - Dino CiccarelliSergei Fedorov2 - Igor Larionov - Vyacheslav Kozlov3Henrik Zetterberg - Pavel Datsyuk - Tomas Holmstrom (I'm happy with this line as is)Kirk Maltby 4 - Kris Draper 4 - Darren McCarty4 Vladmir Konstantinov - Nicklas Lidstrom Paul Coffey - Chris Chelios 5Mathieu Schneider - Vyacheslav Fetisov Mike Vernon Dominik Hasek1 The Stevey Y before he had cyborg legs, despite the fact his heart was still huge even in the end. 2 The 93-94 Sergei Fedorov, not the tit with Columbus. 3 The Kozlov who is tearing it up now more than ever on Atlanta. 4 The grind line that actually scored on occasion, and was still tough. 5 As ageless as Chelios is, his slapshot has probably lost 30mph, so the Chi-town Cheli! Edit: Whoops I'm dumb and I used retired players....sigh. Oh well, I still like my team. Link to post Share on other sites

nell789 0 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I didn't know Straka played for Ottawa. I like this thread. I'd do a leaf thread but pretty much every player that has played for them and no longer does is retired Link to post Share on other sites
Fenxis 99 Posted May 15, 2007 Share Posted May 15, 2007 I didn't know Straka played for Ottawa. I like this thread.Only 50 games spread over two seasons though.* April 7, 1995- Traded by the Pittsburgh Penguins to the Ottawa Senators in exchange for Troy Murray and Norm Maciver.* January 23, 1996- Traded by the Ottawa Senators, along with Don Beaupre and Bryan Berard, to the New York Islanders in exchange for Damian Rhodes and Wade Redden.He played fairly well while he was here from what I remember though didn't light it up as the sens were still pretty asstastic back then. Modry so played a season back then in 96 which was a bit of a surprise to me. Link to post Share on other sites

troyomac 0 Posted May 16, 2007 Share Posted May 16, 2007 Give it a couple years, and I could make a team for Boston without any of their (current at the time roster). Link to post Share on other sites

You know you don't really want Yashin on there.True the guy was an A grade *******.. and if we consider just this season Prospal > Vermette as well.Don Cherry mode: interesting that the Sens are doing much better this season now that they've pitched most of the Euros and have loaded up on Canucks.
