[Nathaniel Skywalker]

Prime Mario. Best player of all times

 

[Golden_Jet]

Hasek

 

[DitchMarner]

Honestly, I think Forsberg from that list. I know it's cliched.

I've seen Marner and Matthews in quite a few Game Sevens. Frustration ensues.

I guess I’ll take Prime Gretzky for $99, Alex.

 

[Fire Sweeney]

Tim Thomas

 

[Hollowmoon]

Hasek, easy

 

[DFF]

I have seen McDavid in game 7

I rather have Sam Bennett lol

 

[Bouboumaster]

Easy answer: Patrick Roy

 

[JohanFranzenstein]

I'm the only Justin Williams vote?? Dude put up 2 goals every game 7 it felt like!

 

[KirkAlbuquerque]

Mike Rupp

 

[PainForShane]

Huh, I thought I'd be the only one picking Hasek. Pretty cool to see he's winning the poll so far

 

[jetsforever]

Roy because if you can make the saves, chances are the other guys can get enough goals

 

[bobholly39]

Prime Mario. Best player of all times

I figure you have to answer this ignoring Lemieux, Gretzky, Orr, etc

 

[bobholly39]

Easy answer: Patrick Roy

My top 3 are probably Crosby, McDavid and Forsberg - and I voted Crosby. Lots of great options though. Good poll

Among this list, I'd take Roy first for a 7 game series, or a full playoff run - but I figure for one game only too much luck/variance with a goalie.

Hasek or Roy. And for one game, I’ll go with Hasek’s absolute mind-bending ability to keep pucks out.

It’s the ultimate field leveler. Since I know nothing about the make-up of the teams or situation, I’ll take the thing that guarantees me a chance and that the players on my team know gives them a chance, whatever the odds. The kind of confidence a locked in Hasek or a cocky Roy can give everybody else and also influence how you play in front of them gives them a lot more power than just stopping pucks.

The last option says other lol

 

[T REX]

Hasek

Small sample size but dude sports a .946 save % in G7's
1.56 GAA

ROY
"Patrick Roy was 6-7-0-0 in 13 games with a goals against average of 2.47 and a save percentage of .908 in the playoffs in his career in G7's"

Great post.

Brad Richards. He's 8-0 in game 7s lol

 

[SillyRabbit]

I mean, if you're gonna put an "other" option then why not list Gretzky, Lemieux, Orr and Howe?

Gretzky is my vote.

4-2 in Game 7's with 12 points in 6 games.

Brad Richards. He's 8-0 in game 7s lol

If we're going with non-conventional picks then Williams is definitely the answer.

He's 8-1 to Richards' 8-0, but he had 15 points in his nine Game 7's whereas Richards had seven points in his eight Game 7's.

 

[Honour Over Glory]

Prime Max Talbot.

I'll take the undefeated one tyvm. 2nd place goes to pill popper Mike Richards and Red Kelly @ 7-0. Haha
