Meh, call me biased but I think I'd take more than Jarome's shoulders when building an NHL player. Crosby whines too much to get the nod for professionalism.

I'd take Iginla's professionalism as well. For toughness, I know he's not playing, but I'd take Yzerman's over Phaneuf's.

I was honestly surprised that Iginla didnt get the professionalism nod. The thing is just for fun, but I thought that one was obvious. Crosby is a good choice as well - 20 years old, the expectations and the way he deals with the media... he's been groomed for this.

I'm trying to picture this player. Combine the Professionalism of Crosby (or Iggy if you want) with the Sneer of Sean Avery and the Toxicity of Steve Ott, how would that work? Said player would run people from behind and be hated by everyone, all while maintaining a high level of Professionalism?
