The NHL and Habs unveil Montreal's quarter century team

[26Mats]

First team is:

Koivu
Kovalev
Plekanec
Weber
Markov
Price

Second team is:
Suzuki
Pacioretty
Gallagher
Subban
Souray
Theodore

What do you all think? Personally, I wouldn't have Plekanec ahead of Pacioretty or Suzuki and while I never liked Kovalev, I get it. I'd also have Petry over Souray.

Blah overall...

But if we're on the topic, I think I'd have Pacioretty on the first team as well, and then Caufield over Plekanec on the second team.

As also Cammalleri and Radulov give Gallagher a run for his money. It depends if you go quantity over quality...

And I'd want to find a way to put Kovalchuk somewhere!

No problem with Petry over Souray. But Hamrlik may be the better overall D?

what a pathetic collection of talent for 25 years. Show what a failure the Molson family is. The odd stud like Suzuki and Price. The first round talent this team passed lol

Price and Suzuki - sure
but for 25 years ?

K , that's my negativity for the day

They missed Radulov, Caufield, Cammalleri, Hamerlik. That would increase the talent.

Radulov played one season and Kovalchuk played 22 games.. Neither of them should be anywhere near the Habs all star teams for the last 25 years.

If the criteria is career stats, I suppose that is a good list. But I would take Caufield all day over Gallagher and Lane over Souray.
