Yep. Great player but more Flyer than Flame. When coming up with these lists I always think of one team per player. I wouldn’t want one of our all time great players being on another’s team list. Maybe that’s not logical but that’s how I think of it. That’s tough with a player like McCrimmon who played with many different teams.
Also a little problematic with Lanny but his accomplishments here blow what he did in Toronto out of the water. SC champion, biggest goal in franchise history and in my opinion best season in franchise history. Plus the way he simply owned the town for a few years. And that he is from the area and settled here.
Guess I’m an old timer but he will always be Mr. Flame to me.
