Well to be fair with the video maker he did say this took a long time to compile so he might’ve started before Zubov was inducted into the HoF... Then again, it’s more likely he just hadn’t the awareness that Zubov’s in.. 🙄

turarosicky I think for Flyers, a guy like Keith Primeau is better than Sami Kapanen, but Kappy is a good choice. Also Mike Knuble. And Roman Cechmanek
It's a toss up between Ziggy, Lubo, and Frolov for me. All amazing players in they're prime, just got overlooked because they spent a majority of their careers on some really bad Kings teams.
Lol I knew Kovalev would be on the list but I was not sure if he would be with Penguins or Canadiens. He had a pretty impressive career with over 1000 points yet he will never get into the hall of fame probably Also fun fact: He was the 10th highest scoring player of the 00s
As a life long hockey fan, this was a fun little piece of trivia to pause it before you named each player... but I will say, one guy I called a few teams early was for St. Louis I thought it would be Andy McDonald... guess I was wrong but good pick by you nonetheless with Boyes. And I’m a Wild fan and guessed Bouchard correctly. Love that guy. A lot of great names and memories though. Thanks for all you do! Keep it up
I would put Marc Savard for consideration for Boston (if we aren’t counting the Thrashers as the Jets). He had a 96, 78, and 88 point season with Boston before injuries ended the rest of his career.
Otto Zizak I’ve mostly heard people talk his time on Pittsburg, Detroit, Chicago and sometimes Atlanta however very rarely do I hear people talk about Ottawa
I wouldn’t say Naslund was forgotten he was the biggest star on those early 00s teams. Brendan Morrison is a guy on those teams who is definitely underrated though
Devils - not a bad choice with Langenbrunner, but the guy who immediately jumps to mind for me is John Madden. 10 year Devil (98-09), 2x Cup Winner, 1x Cup Finalist, 2x 20 goal scorer, Selke winner 2000-01, and generally considered one of the best 2-way players of that decade.
maybe it's because I played so much of NHL 07 so I remember a lot of those stars but I wouldn't call Hedjuk, Heatley, Gagner, Kovalev, Cheechoo or Naslund forgotten stars, they're either overshadowed or were dominant for a short time
A video for forgotten 90s Stars should have Pierre Turgeon, Vincent Damphousse, Alex Mogilny, Craig Janney, Steve Thomas, John LeClair, Trevor Linden, Tony Amonte, Bill Guerin, Cliff Ronning, Peter Bondra, Gary Roberts, Brian Bellows and Owen Nolan
and Felix Potvin, Nikolai Khabibulin, Mike Ramsey, Vladimir Konstantinov, Chris Osgood, Igor Larionov, Scott Mellanby aka Rat Man, Zigmund Palffy, Ray Ferraro, Adam Graves, Mike Richter, Radek Bonk, Ron Tugnutt, Keith Primeau, Roman Hamrlik, and Jim Carey
I think the flames could be tanguy or gellinas (if you don’t know who gellinas is he’s the guy who scored the goal they didn’t count that cost the flames the Stanley cup against TB in 2004)
Samsonov is one if my favorite Bruins players, in fact, my whole family loved him. He is still a well remembered Bruin for a lot of fans, however, I have no idea how remembered he is outside of Boston
I would've gone with Dick Tarnstrom for the Penguins. If you asked somebody who the last player to lead the Penguins in scoring other than Crosby or Malkin was I doubt many people would know it was Tarnstrom, as a defenseman no less.
It's gotta be Kolzig for the Caps. Of course Ovechkin was their best player of the 2000s but he's hardly forgotten. It wasn't the best decade for the franchise. They had some players who were really good at the start of the decade, like Bondra, Jagr, Oates, and Robert Lang. Then there was the firesale and rebuild and a completely new cast of stars. Kolzig was the only constant.
Simon Gagne isn’t that forgotten in Philly, at least by fans who were cheering for them for the majority of the 2000s. Some other guys that you could say for Philly are Keith Primeau, Mike Knuble, Roman Cechmanek, Sami Kapanen
I love that your pick for the Penguins is Sykora! When I was young, I loved to pick a player on the Penguins I felt was an "underdog" and Sykora was my pick for those 08 and 09 cup runs. I even got his jersey, though I've well outgrown it now.
I can't imagine any Avalanche fan forgetting Milan Hejduk. He was great and, in my opinion, might sneak into the HOF one day. Not sneak in the way I do to avoid the overpriced admission charge but legitimately. As for my Leafs: 1980s, Rick Vaive, 1970s Ian Turnbull, before that you got me.
@@leafsfanforever2896 no he is not, actually he played 2 seasons there, scoring 17 in first season and 24 in second, but was beast, especially in 2nd season with 77 points. Radim Vrbata is last coyote with 30-goal season, reaching it in 11/12 season, boy it's been a long time :D
Idk why but always happy to hear Franzén still getting some light. A beast in front of the goal and tough as a rock. A solid grinder with a friendly face and a kind heart :)
Cool, I was actually thinking about Sykora when you got to the Devils and when you didn't pick him I thought, hmm, maybe he'll get picked for the Pens? And sure enough he did...
Sabres have a lot of guys that were fantastic Chris drury Danny briere Thomas vanek Brian Campbell Derek Roy Maxim Afinegenov Ryan Miller I feel like a bunch of these guys are remembered but that not a lot of people remember how GOOD they were, especially guys like miller who’s on the back end of his career and vanek who recently retired
For Ottawa I’d say Mike Fisher imo. From 2005 - 2010 he was pretty solid and he’s likely not as well remembered as Danny Heatley considering he was our superstar. Regardless great video, love your channel!
Graham Hrebicek I wouldn’t say Sergei go char is a forgotten star as he was the pens best defenceman before letang. He is also in the coaching system now with the penguins.
Did you ever think going to the bardown show on youtube from tsn? Your hockey knowledge is insane and i think you would be an awesome fit in there. Hopefully i’ll see you at least one time on one of their quiz. Sorry for my english, i am speaking french :)
Stockholm Marksmen both very good choices! Me not even thinking about them is proof lol. Cechmanek was the closest thing to a legit goalie the flyers had in awhile but I think he would lose to a guy like primeau or Gagne because of his reputation for inconsistency
I'd say Tim Connolly for Buffalo. His career never amounted to his level of talent due to injuries (concussions). He was "nearly" a point per game player for the Sabres, besides his last season here. He missed the entire 06-07 season and when he came back he never really got the respect he deserved around the city. People saw his potential and either dismissed it because he was made of glass or just thought he wasn't putting in the effort. He was a FORCE with the puck. When it comes to puck skills and hands him and Eichel are above every other Sabre since the year 2000.
Us Avs fans haven't forgotten Hejduk. 23 hangs in the rafters of Pepsi Center, rightfully so. Also, Franzen is a great pick for the Wings. I never liked him as an Avs fan, because he was great at scoring on us haha, but that dude had some serious skill.
Colorado - marek Svatos Dallas - Roman Turek. Zubov is too big of a name to be considered "forgotten". I'm pretty sure most people think Modano, belfour, and Zubov when they think of the Stars from that era. Edmonton- ales Hemsky or Kimo Timmonen. Souray is more of a canadian than an oiler. Nashville - scott Walker. I think of Arnott as Devil or a Star. He didnt play enough for nashville. Ottawa - I dont think anybody forgets heatley and how good he was. How bout Martin Prusek. Was only good for a couple years, but a better option than heatley. Philadelphia - gagne was the face of the Flyers during the 2000's, probably the first person anybody who remembers the 2000's would think of when they think philadelphia. Instead, how bout brian boucher. Pittsburgh - sykora didnt play for Pittsburgh enough, he woulda been a good option for Jersey though. Vancouver - nobody forgets Naslund. Try Brent Sopel. Washington - Danius Zubrus.
I have a video idea! Players who had 2 different stints with a team such as prospal which you mentioned in this video. If I'm not mistaken, filpulla on the red wings played for them earlier in his career? Idk haha thought itd be a cool vid if there are even other guys like this
For the Rangers probably should’ve said Michael Nylander. Was just about point per game playing top line duty with Jagr and Martin Straka. Was a perfect compliment for Jagr and always seemed to be able to get the puck to him. Kinda like the Nik Backstrom to Ovi
I dont think Naslubd maybe gets mentioned as much as he should, but I feel most people remember at the very least that he was a great player. I wouldve picked Bertuzzi, people forget he was a legit star player for some time
@@daltin92 No they arent.. Gio was Captain America in 2018, John Madden is an assistant coach for Montreal, and Pando was literally an assistant coach for the Bruins up until 2021.
Huselius was really great for 🔥 and a guy like tangauy as well. Great playmakers that helped Iggy get that last 50 goal season. As a die hard though I gotta say our most underrated guy was our anchor on the backend. Robyn Regehr. Crosby even said he was one of the hardest players to play against. He didn’t score a tone of points but he could write a book about good defensive positioning. He was so instrumental in Calgary’s success.
Great video, but as a Canucks fan I wouldn't say that Naslund was forgotten. He's still super celebrated and loved in Vancouver. I'd say a forgotten star of the 2000s was definitely Mattias Ohlund. Played a ton of games, logged big minutes a ton of 30 point seasons and was a rock on the blue line. Didn't mean to criticize. It was a solid video!
Nice list, agree with all except Hejduk and Kovalev though. If you’re more than just a casual hockey fan you should easily remember them they were elite players for more than a couple years.

“Defenseman Sergei Zubov”
I wouldn’t say he is a forgotten star, since he is now a Hockey Hall of Famer
The stars player should have been
Brenden Morrow
Sam Sneed or Mike Ribeiro
@@father042 Or Jere Lehtinen
Well to be fair with the video maker he did say this took a long time to compile so he might’ve started before Zubov was inducted into the HoF...
Then again, it’s more likely he just hadn’t the awareness that Zubov’s in.. 🙄
He’s still remembered in NY for being the regular season points leader in 93-94 and made great contributions during the cup run.
No one is forgetting about Naslund the dude was part of the best line in hockey in the early 2000's
and part of one of the worst trades in NHL history
Definitely no one in Vancouver is forgetting about Nazzy! Guy's a rockstar here
Shiv Desai right! Should bin at least Alex burrows or Brandon Morrison
His number is hanging from the rafters for fuck sake.
His Jersey number has even been retired in Van

Colorado - Adam Foote (part of two stanley cup winning teams with avalanche, good stay-home d-man)
Columbus - Nikolay Zherdev (speed kills, that's what zherdev was alognside nash in jackets early years, not flashy numbers but still fun player to watch)
Dallas - Mike Ribeiro or stephane robidas (when ribeiro was a star he was arguably one of the best passers in the league with 3 50+ assists seasons there, robidas good defensive d-men, spent 11 seasons there
Detroit - Thomas Holstrom (every goalies nightmare, if screening could give you points, thomas probably would had at least 200 more points in career :) )
Edmonton - Shawn Horcoff (11 seasons with team and also wore C,he was solid with oilers and had great postseason in 06)
Florida - Nathan horton or David booth (horton is more remebered with bruins which is understandable but also shame, because his style of play was more like a goalscorer with panthers, booth spent 6 years with that mediocre panthers team and was one of their bright spots
Los Angeles - Alexander Florov - good goalscorer, had 2 30+ seasons there and also one 70+ pts season
Minnesota - Brian Rolston (he was good everywhere he went, but his best offensive seasons was with wild especially in 05/06 with 79 pts
Montreal - Michael Ryder (2 30 goal seasons there, could also gone his spot with bruins where he won cup in 2011)

New Jersey - Scott gomez (2 time stanley cup champion with devils, 3 70+ points seasons there with one he ended with 84 pts)

New york Rangers - Martin straka (linemate with Jaromir Jagr, had 2 70+ points season)
Ottawa - Wade Redden (was absolutely beast in his prime, over 450 points in 1000+ games, most with senatos)
Philadelphia - Sami Kapanen (I was thinking putting primeau or knuble there, but decided to put kapi, small, speedy and grindy guy,
Pitsburgh - Sergei Gonchar (many people may don't agree with me on this one and I understand but I still think he is little bit underrated, maybe not really forgotten one but still kind of overlooked
San Jose - Ryan Clowe (solid physical forward who put up respectable numbers with sharks over 8 seasons)

Yes! Holmstrom was a beast in front of the net. You talk about a guy who pseudo revolutionized to role of “pest to the goalie.”
this list > the video
What about BEST TOUGH GUY ever on each team? that would be fun!
Yes
Andy Jay Does that mean atleast 1gp with the team or more than a certain amount?
@@redneck6980 10+ fights with a given team
yes
Sabres, Ray. Done.
Zigmund Palffy for L.A. would have been good too. He had 340 pts in 311 games with them over a point per game guy in career, a forgotten star
100% agree
It's a toss up between Ziggy, Lubo, and Frolov for me. All amazing players in they're prime, just got overlooked because they spent a majority of their careers on some really bad Kings teams.
I always remembered Simon Gagne, one of my first Flyers games he gave me his stick, one of the best day of my life.
Video Idea: Every Team’s best Fourth Line if the past decade or a variation of that.
Matthew Brand Merlot line ✊
If he did that it would be the Blues fourth line in the playoffs GO BLUUUUUUUES
The reason why I love this channel because of the content and I agree with you alot
Lol I knew Kovalev would be on the list but I was not sure if he would be with Penguins or Canadiens.
He had a pretty impressive career with over 1000 points yet he will never get into the hall of fame probably
Also fun fact: He was the 10th highest scoring player of the 00s
As a life long hockey fan, this was a fun little piece of trivia to pause it before you named each player... but I will say, one guy I called a few teams early was for St. Louis I thought it would be Andy McDonald... guess I was wrong but good pick by you nonetheless with Boyes. And I’m a Wild fan and guessed Bouchard correctly. Love that guy. A lot of great names and memories though. Thanks for all you do! Keep it up
I would put Marc Savard for consideration for Boston (if we aren’t counting the Thrashers as the Jets). He had a 96, 78, and 88 point season with Boston before injuries ended the rest of his career.
Ales Hemsky over Souray any day of the week. Souray had one good year while hemsky was good every year for them
Horcoff > both
Souray was a beast in montreal
But no one forgets Hemsky played for the Oilers. Souray barely played in Edmonton...
hemmer hand some flithy hands
JRP 90 w love ales hemsky
I’d say Marian Hossa for Ottawa, lead the team in scoring for 2 or 3 seasons including that 2002-2003 Sens team that won the Presidents Trophy
Otto Zizak I’ve mostly heard people talk his time on Pittsburg, Detroit, Chicago and sometimes Atlanta however very rarely do I hear people talk about Ottawa
Hossa was very well known, even before he joined the Blackhawks.... I’m glad he won 3 cups because he made a huge difference...
@Otto Zizak Sill my favorite Sen of all time. Will never forgive Melnyk.
@@Scoliosis Melnyk sucks but had nothing to do with that trade
I wouldn’t say Naslund was forgotten he was the biggest star on those early 00s teams. Brendan Morrison is a guy on those teams who is definitely underrated though
Montreal hasn't forgotten about Kovalev. Still have posters hanging in my room
No one forgets how good Heater was. He is a fucking All-Star
Chris Drury is currently the Rangers Assistant GM
Devils - not a bad choice with Langenbrunner, but the guy who immediately jumps to mind for me is John Madden. 10 year Devil (98-09), 2x Cup Winner, 1x Cup Finalist, 2x 20 goal scorer, Selke winner 2000-01, and generally considered one of the best 2-way players of that decade.
Gionta and Pandolfo are guys that can fill in that list of forgotten players
maybe it's because I played so much of NHL 07 so I remember a lot of those stars but I wouldn't call Hedjuk, Heatley, Gagner, Kovalev, Cheechoo or Naslund forgotten stars, they're either overshadowed or were dominant for a short time
I am so happy you mention Simon Gagné 👍 I was thinking maybe Mike Richard but good call
Or even Jeff Carter
I found Derek Roy in NHL 20 so he’s very much still active at a 72 overall
shad crappypants where? Free agents?

kovalev .. good memories wow .. that goal without a helmet
Gabriel Paul-moreau him and fedrov May have the best no bucket goals
The Avs retired Hejduk's number, so he isn't forgotten here. I'd probably say Dan Hinote or Marek Svatos (RIP)
Do best undrafted players
And I realized the new subscribe intro
Visnovsky, Ziggy Palffy, Jason Allison, and Adam Deadmarsh(aka LAPD Line) are all big forgotten stars from LA
I think the flames could be tanguy or gellinas (if you don’t know who gellinas is he’s the guy who scored the goal they didn’t count that cost the flames the Stanley cup against TB in 2004)
It’s so interesting to be reminded of these forgotten players because so many guys just fade away
I'll never fade away... They will never figure me out!!!
Samsonov is one if my favorite Bruins players, in fact, my whole family loved him. He is still a well remembered Bruin for a lot of fans, however, I have no idea how remembered he is outside of Boston
Imma say Thomas Kaberle for Toronto he was a beast on NHL 06
Vrbata was definitely one of my favorite Yotes of all time. Got his signature up on my wall!
Another forgotten star for the devils could be Patrik Elias. He’s the all time leader in scoring and I feel is very underrated.
I could think of 3 guys that are forgotten in NJ. Brian Gionta,Jay Pandolfo and John Madden
I would've gone with Dick Tarnstrom for the Penguins. If you asked somebody who the last player to lead the Penguins in scoring other than Crosby or Malkin was I doubt many people would know it was Tarnstrom, as a defenseman no less.
Definitely Daniel Briere for me for either Philly or Buffalo. Hated playing against him
It's gotta be Kolzig for the Caps. Of course Ovechkin was their best player of the 2000s but he's hardly forgotten. It wasn't the best decade for the franchise. They had some players who were really good at the start of the decade, like Bondra, Jagr, Oates, and Robert Lang. Then there was the firesale and rebuild and a completely new cast of stars.

I feel like Dany Heatley is mainly remembered for the car crash now
Also Thrashers/Jets should definitely be Slava Kozlov and Blues Pavol Demitra
Dany Heatley is mainly remembered for being a Fuckin' All Star
Dany Heatly is mainly remembered for scoring 50 in 07
David Vyborny was my favorite player as a kid! It’s hard to even footage of him now
Hi Ohnyquist. Hope ur doing well during this time
Cookie Playz thanks, you as well!
For Carolina, what about Ray Whitney?
Stockholm Marksmen he was sick! For a couple teams honestly
OhNyquist especially Carolina and Phoenix
Oh and did you know that Ray Whitney is the last 30 goal scorer for the Coyotes as of 2019-20?
Whitney is definetly not forgotten, Stillman on the other hand kinda is even tho he was very solid for long time
@@leafsfanforever2896 no he is not, actually he played 2 seasons there, scoring 17 in first season and 24 in second, but was beast, especially in 2nd season with 77 points. Radim Vrbata is last coyote with 30-goal season, reaching it in 11/12 season, boy it's been a long time :D

How was the Kings one not Ziggy Palffy?!?!? Dude was a superstar
Langenbrunner also played for the stars and he won a cup with the stars and devils
So did Grant Marshall
Idk why but always happy to hear Franzén still getting some light. A beast in front of the goal and tough as a rock. A solid grinder with a friendly face and a kind heart :)

Simon Gagne for the Flyers was a GREAT pick! Watching this legit made me think about all the old nhl games I used to play lol
Bobby Jones what about Roman Cechmanek? Man he was very great with the Flyers before leaving the NHL for good in 2004
Keith Primeau is also forgotten
Stockholm Marksmen both very good choices! Me not even thinking about them is proof lol. Cechmanek was the closest thing to a legit goalie the flyers had in awhile but I think he would lose to a guy like primeau or Gagne because of his reputation for inconsistency
I'd say Tim Connolly for Buffalo. His career never amounted to his level of talent due to injuries (concussions). He was "nearly" a point per game player for the Sabres, besides his last season here. He missed the entire 06-07 season and when he came back he never really got the respect he deserved around the city. People saw his potential and either dismissed it because he was made of glass or just thought he wasn't putting in the effort. He was a FORCE with the puck. When it comes to puck skills and hands him and Eichel are above every other Sabre since the year 2000.
Columbus is Fydur Tutin.
Hella good video dude
"Derrick Roy is actually still playing professionally in germany" *shows picture of im in Linköpings hockey club jersey* (swedish SHL team btw)
yes so its not only me who saw it!!
Us Avs fans haven't forgotten Hejduk. 23 hangs in the rafters of Pepsi Center, rightfully so.
Also, Franzen is a great pick for the Wings. I never liked him as an Avs fan, because he was great at scoring on us haha, but that dude had some serious skill.
A lot of former Devils on this list. Not sure what to make of that.
2:01 the picture is from Linköping HC in Sweden, not in Germany
I want a pt 2 to this
My favorite part about 2000s videos is recognizing the equipment players had and making my Christmas wishlist
such as the TPS rubber lol
Chicago shoulda been Sharp or Niemi tbh
Honourable mention for Montreal: Tomas Plekanec
For Devils it has to be Patrik Elias
Colorado - marek Svatos
Dallas - Roman Turek. Zubov is too big of a name to be considered "forgotten". I'm pretty sure most people think Modano, belfour, and Zubov when they think of the Stars from that era.
Edmonton- ales Hemsky or Kimo Timmonen. Souray is more of a canadian than an oiler.
Nashville - scott Walker. I think of Arnott as Devil or a Star. He didnt play enough for nashville.
Ottawa - I dont think anybody forgets heatley and how good he was. How bout Martin Prusek. Was only good for a couple years, but a better option than heatley.
Philadelphia - gagne was the face of the Flyers during the 2000's, probably the first person anybody who remembers the 2000's would think of when they think philadelphia. Instead, how bout brian boucher.
Pittsburgh - sykora didnt play for Pittsburgh enough, he woulda been a good option for Jersey though.
Vancouver - nobody forgets Naslund. Try Brent Sopel.
Washington - Danius Zubrus.
Subscribed to your NBA channel🤩
I have a video idea! Players who had 2 different stints with a team such as prospal which you mentioned in this video. If I'm not mistaken, filpulla on the red wings played for them earlier in his career? Idk haha thought itd be a cool vid if there are even other guys like this
Islanders should have been Jason Blake and Kings should have been Zigmund Palffy.
Visnovsky is a good pick for the Kings, but I think Palffy would had been a better pick.
For the Rangers probably should’ve said Michael Nylander. Was just about point per game playing top line duty with Jagr and Martin Straka. Was a perfect compliment for Jagr and always seemed to be able to get the puck to him. Kinda like the Nik Backstrom to Ovi
Video idea: Ranking every teams top line this season
I’d go with Nagy for Arizona ! :o
I dont think Naslubd maybe gets mentioned as much as he should, but I feel most people remember at the very least that he was a great player. I wouldve picked Bertuzzi, people forget he was a legit star player for some time
”He still plays in Germany” shows a pic of Linkoping in SHL 2:01
I don't think Marcus Naslund is that forgotten but great video
@OhNyquist Sorry, but the Devils most forgotten star of the 2000's is Brian Rafalski, not Jamie Langenbrunner
Nah try Brian Gionta, Jay Pandolfo and John Madden
@@daltin92 No they arent.. Gio was Captain America in 2018, John Madden is an assistant coach for Montreal, and Pando was literally an assistant coach for the Bruins up until 2021.
Just now watching. Love the vid
Huselius was really great for 🔥 and a guy like tangauy as well. Great playmakers that helped Iggy get that last 50 goal season. As a die hard though I gotta say our most underrated guy was our anchor on the backend. Robyn Regehr. Crosby even said he was one of the hardest players to play against. He didn’t score a tone of points but he could write a book about good defensive positioning. He was so instrumental in Calgary’s success.
Prospal was OK in Tampa, but a better choice would have been Freddie Modin
I looked up the NBA channel and it wasn't there
I'd say Lehtinen would have been a better pick for Dallas.
You should do the best offensive lines or best defensive pairings of the season
That guy on the sabers, Roy or whatever is not playing in Germany in the picture u shown, he played in Sweden on that picture
Chris Stewart for at least one of his 40+ seasons
You should do a number 2 of this video. So many guys out there
Should've had the Atlanta Trashers instead of the Jets. But great video!
Miika was the best there was in the 2000's I don't think he will be forgotten anytime soon. Huselius was a solid pick on that team.
Huselius would’ve been known more if he didn’t get injured
Great video, but as a Canucks fan I wouldn't say that Naslund was forgotten. He's still super celebrated and loved in Vancouver. I'd say a forgotten star of the 2000s was definitely Mattias Ohlund. Played a ton of games, logged big minutes a ton of 30 point seasons and was a rock on the blue line.
Didn't mean to criticize. It was a solid video!
Hejduk and Naslund both have their numbers retired and were absolute monsters for years. Don’t think Nucks or Aves fans are forgetting those Guys
Nice list, agree with all except Hejduk and Kovalev though. If you’re more than just a casual hockey fan you should easily remember them they were elite players for more than a couple years.
This list is hockey cards I wasn't disappointed to get as a kid, but not excited about either.
@OhNyquist did you know that Vinny Prospal is the nickname of Václav Prospal?
Spittin chiclets best hockey podcast no cap
Can you do a ranking video for every position?
Like what top 10 centres etc?
OhNyquist Maybe like a top 25 forwards, or a top 10 defencemen? Or even better your top 10-25 players in the NHL?!
Me thinks you should do a "best all time fighter" of each team 🥰
