Wasn't Tim Kerr also really good at face-offs? I seem to remember this.
As someone said, players like Brett Hull and Steve Stamkos should not be mentioned here. Yeah, their shots are all-time great and overshadow other skills, but they did have other 1st-line level (if not elite) skills. (Stamkos could really fly before his leg injury and is a good passer on the P.P.; Hull had overall great hockey IQ.)
Yanic Perreault is a good mention. Mr. Face-off.
Laine is an interesting one. My first reaction was akin to Stamkos and Hull... but then, after thinking about it, I realized that it's kind of true. Honestly, if Laine didn't have that super-hard, accurate shot, would he have survived this long in the NHL? I tend to think not. HIs size and reach would have given him advantages to get a chance... but today, without his shot, I think he's in the AHL.
Maybe Ryan McLeod? One of the greatest skaters you'll ever see. No hands, and zero physical game. (In fairness, he's a good penalty killer, but that sort of skill is more easily replaceable.)
