And Now For Something Completely Serious: Ranking The Top 25 NHL Right Wingers In 2015-16 - Yahoo Sports Canada

Yahoo's top 25 right wings.

#19: Cam Atkinson, Columbus: The Blue Jackets’ wingers are a faceless horde of good hockey players.

Thanks! I think.


Foligno: "I HAVE A FACE!"

Eberle 7th? We need better RW's in this damn league.

 

[Bloody Brian Burke]

Iginla's an honourable mention with (one less than) 30 goals and 60 pts, but 18 goal 54 pt Bobby Ryan is 17th, 1-good-season Nyquist is 16th, Nino Niederreiter? Radim Vrbata is up there with almost identical numbers.

I get it's for the upcoming season and he can decline drastically, but fuck Jagr's on the list.

I think Jagr gets a spot by default until his batteries run out...errr...he retires.

Just send him to Philly, they know what to do with old battered machines that have done a lot of travelling.

Or his gambling debts are repaid.

Disagree with that Yahoo list. Eberle's good but #7 RW in the league good. Iginla should be more than a honorable mention too.

Terrible list.

Iggy still has it for one. How the hell is Neiderreiter better than Stone? Or Gallagher, or even Atkinson for that matter.

There is a lot more value to be found by simply sorting the top point getters. Is RW now some pivotal defensive position?

Look at the list of top scoring RW last year and tell me it isn't more helpful in identifying the best players than this list.

are there ever any good lists really??? lol

i perused the top 25 LW list that was linked at the bottom of the yahoo story ... Daniel Sedin comes in at 12 but was 3rd amongst LW'ers in scoring last season

I think Eberle is still living off his World Junior performances for Canada...

 

[jstewismybastardson]

the only consistently good list i EVER saw was the one that comeds ORM produced ... and look what he got ??? repurposed as the hitchhiking robot and ended up getting raped in Philadelphia ... SHAME!!!!






/to clarify ... the bolded part refers to ORM not comeds

This would be the worst trade of the offseason - donuts for the McRib? *shudders*

Anyone see the pictures from Sidney Crosby's hockey school? His gear makes it look like Reebok may have lost their top hockey spokesman.

 

[evolver115]

^^^ I saw a news brief on a local station that mentioned CCM was the equipment provider for Sid's camp. Also heard they get to keep the gear as part of their cost for attending. All the proceeds raised from it goes towards The Sidney Crosby Foundation. Nate MacKinnon is also an instructor at the weeklong camp. Pretty freakin' neat. Bet those kids will never forget it.

Ethan Brown, one of the 160 kids chosen to take part in the camp, plays left wing and centre positions in Cole Harbour. "It's just amazing being on the ice with him — being so close to an NHL player like that," Brown said. Crosby said he hopes to host the same camp next year. This year's camp ends on Friday — Crosby's 28th birthday

Hey another unfunny joke about the Panthers lack of attendance!

What type of cookie do you want? Chocolate, double chocolate, peanut butter, raisin, or any other kind?
