Re-uniting linemates...

Savannah drafted Bob Nevin, the 6+ year captain of the Rangers - after the Calder finalist scored multiple times in two Stanley Cup championship postseasons in Toronto - who went to LA after 15 NHL years of highly praised defensive play and secondary scoring, and the 36-year-old right winger had a career high in scoring, leading the NHL team in goals, assists and points as the wingman of...

Savannah-selected Butch Goring, the young center who led the Kings in scoring immediately upon being united with Nevin, the pair also leading the NHL's most efficient PK in penalty minutes played as the top unit duo. The following year Marcel Dionne was drafted and later, after averaging 30 goals a season for the last 8 years of his decade in LA and winning the Lady Byng, Goring was traded in what is often cited the greatest deadline deal in NHL history, being the final last-minute piece to the Isles dynasty. The 30-year-old Butch led the NYI in even strength playoff assists, witĥ 10 of his 19 playoff points in the first cup victory, renowned mostly for his relentless checking opposing top lines. The two-way pivot took the Conn Smythe the second of their four consecutive victorious years. Billy Smith says Goring was the greatest penalty killer he ever played with.

One of the reasons Three Rivers decided to run Imlach (click on name for bio) back as head coach is I felt much more knowledgeable about the nuances of him as a coach after finishing the research that I had collected (most of it was processed after the ATD had ended). It's easy enough to compile wins and losses, analyze rosters, standings, numbers, and get a general idea of how successful, or not, a coach was. I said how important contemporary praise is for understanding pre-consolidation players, and I'd certainly argue that coaches be judged with a larger focus being put to written praise/criticism as numbers tell even less of a story in their neck of the woods. With that being said, I think the roster is more finely tuned for Punch this year vs last, especially at F.

The last piece to that puzzle will be our selection here.

He and Imlach were incredibly close, beyond the hockey realm. There were times when he stepped in for Imlach at practice and even during games (including the playoffs) when Imlach had one of several health emergencies over the course of his tenure in Toronto. This was a longtime and very trusting partnership and the respect each had for the other makes me feel like this is the historically correct pick, especially in trying to repeat as winner here.

Below are just a few newspaper entries that highlight the above.

Three Rivers welcomes:

In a 19-team all-time draft, Sedin is a tweener, a lesser Turgeron type,... a stop-gap, sometimes impact top two lines player. A worthy bench sub, lacking bottom-6 intangibles: backchecking, forechecking, penalty killing, fighting, leadership, grinder, special teams specialist, fighting, etc.

In a bigger draft he'd be a top-6 forward.

All-time wise, he's ideally a very late scoring line player with better linemates. Otherwise, his career would mimic his own: an important role on lesser teams without success in the clutch.
