1. Calgary players only
2. I'll look at games played, production and PPG to list options.
3. My cut off won't effect options as I'll go deeper than required
4. I'll label them by rank (3rd line LW) but don't select the player that matches that role the best, pick the best player.
Day to Day
We elect a position, say 2nd line RW, remove that name and do the 3rd line RW the next day.
I'll post a summary as we go along.

Went with Otto for 4C as he pulled away after I asked about a run off.
The list above for RW was tough ... so many players. Came up with 21 choices by sorting games played, points, points per game (with a suitable number of games). Added McGrattan for emotional reasons despite he not making any of the three.
Cut off took out Amonte, Kobasew, Donovan, M. Hunter, David Jones, Versteeg, Bertuzzi and Hull.
Right wing is crazy in the Flames history.
Still wish I had Peplinski on the left side and didn't go with the web sites.
to me the choice is so obvious for number 1 that I'm not going to enter into a long discussion here
so for today can we just marvel at the fact that the following RWers have played for the Calgary Flames?
Jarome Iginla
Brett Hull
Lanny McDonald
Jaromir Jagr
Joe Mullen
Sergei Makarov
Martin St. Louis
Theoren Fleury
Hakan Loob
(and they almost had Selanne?)
Certain franchises (Pitt and Edm (ugh) come to mind have a storied history of Centers...but the Flames have RW covered ! (of course then it still took them a while to find one for Johnny and Monahan..but seems ok now)
