What did Hull and St. Louis do as a Flame to make them dislikable?

One guy who hasn't shown up on either list who I really liked as a Flame is Roman Hamrlik. Not necessarily in my top 10, I just wanted to show him some love.

And on the other side, I always found David Moss hard to watch. I know he had a great career for a seventh rounder, but I always felt he was virtually useless.

Favourites

Theo Fleury
Miikka Kiprusoff

Don't have any others that I put above the rest, although Chucky might get there. The only two I disliked were Bertuzzi and Marchment. Did not cheer in the stands when they did anything positive for the team. Don't respect them as players. Wish that neither were ever a part of the organization.

As people though, there have been a ton of players and prospects that I have enjoyed throughout their tenure like Conroy, Kanzig, and a bunch of others like Cujo, Nieminen, Iginla etc.

Only player I couldn't stand chatting with in person was Adam Fox.

[Strange Brew]

I really only relate to the players based on what they do on the ice and maybe any personal interaction I may have had which was rare. So my list is almost entirely based on how I enjoyed watching them play the game of hockey, nothing more.

In no order:

Lanny
Iginla
Fleury
Kipper
Loob
Makarov
Macinnis
Mullen
Gaudreau
Gelinas

Conversely there aren’t players I hate watching play but it’s a shame Bertuzzi and Marchment were Flames.

Would have liked to add Darryl Sutter and Peter Maher to my list.

[Reggie Dunlop]

I like Robyn Regehr,

What's his skate size?

Likes, not in any real order. Generally speaking, two-way forwards, defense and goalies.
