Hakan Loob was a joy to watch on and off the ice. I think a case can be made for the builders category or as REs says if it's another down year and there's room for a feel good pick like Makarov. Makarov didn't have the stats nor body of work on NHL ice to justify it, but look at that now. Thus I agree with the comparison of standard for Hakan and Sergei. Plus Loob has a better resume imo, the stanley cup is the crown jewel in this discussion.
Loob's accolades were impressive. Who's to say he wouldn't have padded his stats further if he'd stayed. Imagine if he'd joined detroit in the 90's?
