No, Johnny did not "tie for the league scoring lead as a rookie".

Other than that, fine, I guess.

Am I the only one who really doesn't care about these things?

What was his game like?
He was a defensive wizard...he'd have won a Selke or 2 if he played in the east and Carbonneau wasn't around

He was one of my faves, for sure...very underrated player!

Yeah Risebrough should be higher. The acquisition of McDonald gets all the attention, and understandably so, but it was acquisition of Riser the next year that really helped cap the transformation of the team into a winner.

Fletcher really knew what he was doing. The GM job is so different these days.

Agreed. I would rank Theo #1, Iggy #2, MacInnis #3.

I would place Gilmour and Mullen as number 5 and 6 and drop Roberts and Suter out of the top ten. Flames don't win the Cup in 89 without Doug Gilmour and Joe Mullen was Calgary's first real sniper IMO.
