Default Jersey Poll - All Time #39

Did this five years ago, thought it might be interesting again. Always fun to see younger fans and older fans arguing over different generations in a battle.

Will put one up a day whenever possible.

Have fun! and Go old guys!

How it works:

I pick off a key group of players for each jersey. I don't use every name, as that gets tedious and unnecessary (probably go with say 5 unless there are many that wore the same number).

I also don't put up a guy for the number he isn't known for (Iginla shouldn't win #24 for example)

was going to just skip 39 but he deserves a poll just like the other slam dunks out there.

Skrudland was a good warrior, and person, but this one is pretty clear cut.

thanks for doing these, during a deathly slow hockey time of year.

I wonder if next year we could do a all-time depth chart poll (ie. 1st-4th Centers, RW, LW, 1st-3rd pairing d, starter/backup goalie polls).

Well, it's official... craigwd is that guy. Voted for Macoun over Kipper and Skrudland over Killer.

Maybe he just hates nicknames that start with K?

Killer - probably my favorite Flame ever.

I still remember when he went "Beast Mode" in Montreal during game 6 in '89 like it was yesterday.

Posted this in Kipper's poll but:

His only votes throughout were to pick the very small minority:
  • 1 of 2 to vote Jamie Macoun over Kipper
  • Only person to vote David Moss over Joe Nieuwendyk
  • 1 of 5 to vote Pekka Rautakallio over Brad McCrimmon
  • 1 of 6 to vote Tony Amonte over Gary Roberts
  • Sean Donovan over Guy Chouinard
  • Jamie Hyslop over Jiri Hrdina
  • Trent Yawney over Stajan/Lombardi
  • Kristian Huselius over Gary Suter,
He did join the 79% who voted for Craig Conroy, but I'm guessing he saw the first name and thought he was voting for himself. There were no other votes by him. Most of his experience is in the Inferno though.

Can he get a flashing avatar or username so we can all notice him?

Impossible to vote against Gilmour, IMO.

I once spike a ball into Killer's face during a friendly game of volleyball.


He was less than impressed.

Skrudland was barely a Flame to make an impact Killer was a huge part of our cup win. Great player on the ice, its funny how what he did here exceeds what he did with the Leafs yet its barely brought up.

Never saw a larger heart in such a small guy.

Killer by a mile.

Skrudland wasn't a Flame for long, but leaving him exposed in the expansion draft was a dumb mistake by Risebrough. He went on to be a valuable heart-and soul guy, including the leader of the Cup Finalist Panthers, for a long time.

Doug Gilmour quit on his team mid-season. Quit. Walked out. On his team and his fans.

No vote for you Dougie.

I did vote for him because of his contribution in '89, but almost didn't because of how things ended with him and what the subsequent trade did to the team.
