Imagine wearing a blue club monaco sweat shirt to a game and not a jersey?

I thought the first three spots for RW would be easy choices in order, with McDonald winning a close battle with Loob in the fourth line spot, but apparently not! Like with centre, looks like a player I would have clearly in the top three will not even make the roster.

To me, Mullen is clearly ahead of the other two if we are going with best player. He was outstanding in his time with the Flames, but especially in the cup winning season - in both the regular season and the playoffs.

I’m loving these lines, I may go into a deep deep EA Sports NHL custom player creation to make these.

First line, absolute beast mode. Who would want to defend against that line!?
Second line, Johnny finally saddled up with some piss and vinegar, they would eviscerate any teams 2nd group.
Third line is nothing but absolute beauties, arguably as much of a scoring threat as the 2 above them.

Somebody must have thought it said Pavel Bure instead of Val.

Let's look at the three remaining names that probably deserve some love here.

Lanny: GP: 492 G: 215 P:459 (Best Season: 66 Goals, 98 points, NHL 2nd Team All-Star)

Mullen: GP: 345 G: 190 P: 388 (Best Season: 51 Goals, 110 points, NHL 1st Team All-Star)

Loob: GP: 450 G: 193 P: 429 (Best Season: 50 Goals, 106 points, NHL 1st Team All-Star)

The crazy part is all three of these guys deserve a spot on the roster. You can easily make a case for all three of them.

My take would be that if we had a 13th forward vote, that it would be the remaining guy of these three that easily takes that spot.
