"To the Blackhawks Organization, the late Rocky, Danny and the Wirtz family, all of my video coaches, GM’s, athletic and equipment trainers, strength coaches, scouting staff and all those that put it all together..."

 

[Ceremony]

Rendulic (71) - McClement (16) - Mitchell (7)
Skrastins (3) - Klee (2)
Aebischer (1)

Am I doing this right?

 

[CobraAcesS]

I think Beniers will get there (and maybe this season), but Larkin today is better than Beniers was last season by a long shot. When we are looking if the full depth build works, Detroit has some guys who can elevate a full depth build above what we have recently seen. Is it enough to push Detroit further? Or is it even enough in the East?

Well it was a longer construction, but STL is the example of that type of build winning. Although I'm not sure Larkin is O'Reilly..

If Mo takes another step, anything is possible I guess. Personally I think they needed one more top 5 pick with Zadina failing.

 

[UncleRisto]

Kerfoot (13) - Arnason (39) - Van der Gulik (7)
Zanon (4) - Guenin (5)
Miska (32)

 

[Balthazar]

Kerfoot

We didn't talk about his new team yet but he's a perfect fit in AZ.

Why not just go all the way?

Kerfoot - Jost - Compher

Fk, I can't bring myself to type those names on D.

Give me Barberio & Redmond lol

For the record I have no clue what the point of this game is..

Oh and I'll take the Hamburgler in net.

To get 100 on jersey numbers.

He played LW just as much as C. By the end of his career I bet he spent more time at LW than C. Disagree.

Nah baby he was a centre. It wasn't until like, 2008 that he became a full time LW.

 

[CobraAcesS]

To get 100 on jersey numbers.

Oh, haha, I probably wasn't close. I only remember JT's number, and that is because he literally just made the top 50 list at the number he wore. At least it looked to be going that way.

Kerfoot 13 - Jost 17 - Compher 37
Barberio 44 - Redmond 22
Hammond 35

168.

 

[redacted]

Tanguay (18) - Drury (18) - Deadmarsh (18)
Goloubef (18) - Yelle (18)*
Rando(10)

*I'm confident he could play Defense

That means I win right?

 

[UncleRisto]

That means I win right?

Yeah, that was the most so far.

 

[CobraAcesS]

Yeah, that was the most so far.

I have to go eat some pizza now and complete the cycle of channeling my inner Poolparty.

Two assumptions:
Gretzky played for Colorado
Gretzky is so good that he can play every position, and his number only counts once

Gretzky 99 - Gretzky 99 - Gretzky 99
Gretzky 99 - Gretzky 99
Varly - 1

Which would you rather, the lineup I said, or just having Gretzky and Varly and no one else?

 

[UncleRisto]

Tanguay (18) - Drury (18) - Deadmarsh (18)
Goloubef (18) - Yelle (18)*
Rando(10)

*I'm confident he could play Defense

Downie (17) - Drury (18) - Fleury (14)
Siemens (15) - Zadorov (16)
Berra (20)

 

[CobraAcesS]

100% Gretz & Varly

Don't know why he deleted that.

I'll take Jagr #68 and Roy #33 though, so what if it's 101 lol. Those two would totally cheat to win anyway.

 

[CobraAcesS]

Downie (17) - Drury (18) - Fleury (14)
Siemens (15) - Zadorov (16)

Wait wasn't Duncan 11? Or did he never actually play enough to pick his number lol?

Gretzky and Varly

He wore 16 until Zadorov got it and Dunc moved to 15.

 

[CobraAcesS]

He wore 16 until Zadorov got it and Dunc moved to 15.

Did he wear 11 in junior or am I just crazy? I was really hoping Duncan was going to be more like Adam Foote when he was younger rather than when he retired lol.

 

[UncleRisto]

Did he wear 11 in junior or am I just crazy?

No, he wore 5 with the Blades.

Siemens was the eleventh pick in the 2011 Draft. Here he is.

Rotfl, well now I know where 11 comes from.

Still wish he had enough to make it and make a career out of painting the ice with dudes. A guy that mean that could actually skate was exciting at the time.
