A few surprises:Mario not being #1,Pavel Bure being on it at all,some ex-Caps actually being listed.;knowing how much they looove the Caps(and shocked the most recent ex-Cap ranked higher than expected...on the show there was a snide remark from Bucci..)

Based on what? Where is Gonchar (still young, I know)? Oates (one of the best passers ever) 100th?

The guys who made those rankings have way too much time on their hands. It's a little like, "Look how many players from the past I know!"

Yzerman's way too low. Bryan Trottier's not even there.

I don't think Mario not being #1 is a surprise.  Probably shouldn't be ranked as high as he is.

I'm trying to figure out how it is Grant Fuhr and Dominik Hasek get ranked higher than a guy who had six Cups in eight seasons and five Vezina trophies in that span.  We won't even get to his collegiate record (76-4-1).  Less than most such lists, there isn't quite as much a bias toward the more recent players, but some strike me as odd . . . Roenick at 67? . . . Naslund at 90?

Naslund and Iginla above the highest-scoring LW of all time, Robitaille, as well as Adam Oates, and Bryan Trottier.

Trottier is one of the great two-way players, 6-time Stanley Cup champion, member of the 500/1000 club, Calder winner, Conn Smythe winner, Art Ross winner, Hart winner. He belongs on this list. IMHO of course.
