Get Out The Vote...

The crew over at On Frozen Blog are hosting an interesting exercise this month - they want your vote on an All-Time lineup:

Imagine yourself as coach of a team tied late in Game 7 of the Stanley Cup Finals. There’s one minute left. At your disposal for the game’s final shift you have any five skaters from the NHL’s past or present. In their prime. Of course you’ll need a premiere backstopper as well. Use any criteria of your choosing, but the bottom line is: you’re trying to punch one home with one final push and earn Lord Stanley’s glory.

For the record, I went with Bobby Hull/Wayne Gretzky/Gordie Howe up front, Bobby Orr and Nicklas Lidstrom on D, and Dominik Hasek in net. Get over there and leave your vote in the comments...

Many thanks for the mention. We thought it would be a fun exercise and are looking forward to everyone's picks.

It's a tough one, but fun.

Cheers!

I think my lines would be

Rocket Richard-Gretzky-Teemu Selanne in his rookie year
Bobby Orr-Larry Robinson

as for the goalie, I'm not sure wether I'd use Dominik Hasek or Patrick Roy...
