Last night I sinned terribly(hockey post)

[Fight_n_back]

I made an all time Red Sox team but left out Jimmy Foxx and Wade Boggs...

I made an all time Cubs team and forgot Bruce Sutter...

and I listed my favorite NHL players and FORGOT CHRIS CHELIOS. He is the finest player in the history of his nation and I forgot him.

So to make up for it I am listing the greatest players in the history of their respective nations.

USA
Chelly

Canada
Im cheating and doing a three way tie
Number NinetyNine
Number Nine
Number four

Russia
Sergei Federov (Russians worship Varlamov but he was a pro playing against amatuers and Ive seen Federov do astounding things. I was at a playoff game in LA where he played thirty minutes because of injuries to virtually every other capable Red Wing. At the All Star game I went to he won each skill competition he entered)

Finland
My favorite European hockey country
Jarri Kurri

Sweden
Petr Forsberg

Czech Republic
Im taking the Dominator over JAromir Jagr

Slovakia
Petr Bondra

Germany
Olaf Kolzig (Marco Strum rising)

Britain
"Lord" Byron Dafoe

Northern Ireland
Owen Nolan (Owen has no friends)

I can't remember the former Soviet nation that Ozilinsh and Archie Irbe are from but I take Sandis on that one..

1. I would tell you how evil you are if...

[Flying_Pig]

3. Sorry

Ive edited the header to clarify

4. Konstantinov over Federov

in terms of pure talent and ability its Sergei no doubt, but he tends to be too streaky and chokes too much.

[Fight_n_back]

5. Hmmm

a point for sure (not the choking, I think he is the opposite, he only scores when he has to)

I guess Lidstrom could be close to Forsberg as well.

[youngred]

6. Lidstrom is hands down a better Defensemen

but Forsberg is better all around. Both excellent players.

My beef with Federov is when others are struggling he doesn't step up all the time. His speed is incredible and he's very underrated on D

[Fight_n_back]

7. Underrated on D?

He's a Selke winner.

[youngred]

8. aye

but he goes about it very quietly, people don't notice him, award or no

9. I know who numbers 99 and 4 are, but who are you referring to

with number 9?
