Prucenterrules Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Wow I was shocked to see Pando in there and not Elias. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DevilNurn Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 This is bizarre...I understand Pando is the quintessential 3rd-line guy but Colin White? That's bizarre. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Devil Fan Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 No (Scott) Niedermayer, Rob Blake or Zdeno Chara? The Sedin Twins should be there over Ruutu. Shane Doan, Vincent Lecavalier, Ryan Smyth and even Langenbrunner should be picked over some of those 3rd and 4th liners. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HellOnICE Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 I think there were trying to slot guys where they arguably belong. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelastonealive Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 That's a bizarre team, though I see what they were going for. Best two scoring lines, best checking line, best fourth line, best first-second-third pair D, best starting goalie, best backup goalie. Interesting take on the all-decade team, definitely something different at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jkrdevil Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 They obviously did it by best top line guys, best second line guys, best top paring guys ect. Like they were creating an actual team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Although I don't agree with the selection, I understand and appreciate the way they set up the team as an actual team rather than an "all-star" team.

JWomp Posted January 10, 2010 Author Share Posted January 10, 2010 Sorry guys, I don't have a link, I was referencing my hard copy of The Hockey News that came in the mail today. And yeah, you have to look at this a little differently than you would typically expect. As others have mentioned, they didn't try to pick just the top players, but they built an actual realistic team. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GOLDJR41 Posted January 10, 2010 Share Posted January 10, 2010 Ty Conklin is the quintessential back-up goalie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
