Ollie Jokinen for me. Maybe not as disliked a player as some, but certainly not universally loved around here. Not even universally loved around the household... I always took a ribbing from the wife and son for sticking up for Ollie.

When I was a kid I always liked Pavel Bure, only Canuck I ever liked.

Vinny Lecavalier.
Just feel bad for the guy for some reason. Think he gets no respect in Tampa.

I used to watch the Flames and the Oilers but I can only tolerate so much fail at one time and I decided to watch the Flames rather than the Oilers.

Brad Marchand.

Edit - Lucic, but I don't consider him a "guilty pleasure". He's definitely my favorite player in the NHL right now. Guy is a freaking beast on the ice.

Jose Theodore - always liked him, even though he stole Iggy's Hart
Ray Emery - especially after he rehabbed from that horrible hip condition. Missing a fibula now too
Marc Andre Bergeron - no idea why

There were moments reading this thread when I puked in my mouth a little.

David "The Hailmaker" Hale... And I loved Kotalik for some reason... Probably cause he had his own song...

I know there may be no more respected player in the league than Teemu Selanne...but...for a 'Hawk fan, the guy is like kryptonite vs. our team...of his 1400plus points he seems to have about half of them against the 'Hawks! Every time he steps on the ice vs. my beloved 'Hawks, I expect him to get 5 goals and 4 assists...but applaud the guy, just the same.

not so much a guilty pleasure in that people don't like him, but Andrew Ference... I've always been a fan

I really liked Huselius. Some didn't like him due to his inconsistency and low intensity, but I always found him fun to watch.

Chris Pronger. I honestly think he is one of the best defensemen of all time. Sheer physical dominance, even if he went over the line quite often.

And I guess Eberle. I hate him because he' s an Oiler, but I can't help but appreciate his skill level.

I think a certain number 14 has gone overlooked in this thread for 5 pages now. I know it doesn't seem like a guilty pleasure, but to the fans of teams of the other players listed, they aren't either (I don't many pens fans are hoping Crosby gets traded, or b's fans lucic).

Honourable mention to Mathew Barnaby for that hilarious thing that used to happen to his face when he got angry.
